The
Ronettes were an American girl group from Washington Heights,
Manhattan, New York City. The group consisted of the lead singer
Veronica Bennett (later known as Ronnie Spector), her older sister
Estelle Bennett, and their cousin Nedra Talley. They had sung together
since they were teenagers, then known as "The Darling Sisters". Signed
first by Colpix Records in 1961, they moved to Phil Spector's Philles
Records in March 1963 and changed their name to "The Ronettes".
The
Ronettes placed nine songs on the Billboard Hot 100, six of which became
Top 40 hits. Among their hit songs are "Be My Baby", which peaked at
No. 2, their only contemporary top 10 hit, "Baby, I Love You", "(The
Best Part of) Breakin' Up" and "Walking in the Rain". In 1964, the group
released their only studio album, Presenting the Fabulous Ronettes
Featuring Veronica. That year, the Rolling Stones were their opening act
when they toured the UK. The Ronettes opened for the Beatles on their
1966 US tour, becoming the only girl group to tour with them, before
splitting up in 1967. In the 1970s, the group was briefly revived as
Ronnie Spector and the Ronettes. Veronica Bennett married Phil Spector
in 1968.
Their song "Be My Baby" was inducted into the Grammy Hall of
Fame in 1999. Rolling Stone ranked their album Presenting the Fabulous
Ronettes Featuring Veronica No. 422 on its list of The 500 Greatest
Albums of All Time. The Ronettes were inducted into the Vocal Group Hall
of Fame in 2004, and into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2007. The
group also holds the record for the longest gap between top-ten hits in
Billboard history, just over 58 years.
