Music Review: Love Her Music? Find This Album
Rating: 5 Stars
Ronnie Spector's big throbbing, sensual voice, her instantly-recognizable tremelo and her "oo oo oo's," (borrowed from Frankie Lyman of "The Teenagers,") made her one of the greatest female rock and roll stars of her day, basically the 1960's, as lead singer of "The Ronettes. " She worked for producer Phil Spector, as is well-known, in his legendary studio. She began life, a young, half-Puerto Rican, half-American Indian girl, had that remarkable voice, was "discovered" as a dancing teenager, and, of course, married Spector, the boss. She always said that marriage was maybe her toughest gig, and recent history seems to bear her out on that.
Her voice, with its tremolo, boomed out of jukeboxes world wide, with "Be My Baby," "Baby I Love You," and "Walking In The Rain,"among other hits. She also toured with "The Beatles," and played a major part in Spector's evergreen Christmas album of 1963. She's just inescapably part of everybody's sound track of that time: A lot of people danced to her voice, and romanced to it, too. I've been lucky enough to see her several times, and will not soon forget watching the sheer joy with which a man who appeared to be African danced to her music: I think we all felt that way.
When she split with Spector, personally and professionally, and took up a solo career, it was years before her former producer allowed her to use this reportory. However, Billy Joel wrote "Say Goodbye to Hollywood, " for her, and Brian Wilson, of "The Beach Boys" did the same with "Don't Worry Baby;" both were not hits as big as they coulda/shoulda been. In this album, "Unfinished Business" she has a sexy duet with country singer Eddie Money, and does a sizzling "Dangerous" with backup by Susanna Hoffs of "The Bangles." Desmond Child and Diane Warren wrote the haunting "Love On A Rooftop" for her; Desmond Child produced. There's also a very nice "When We Danced," on which Paul Shaffer collaborated.
If you love Ronnie's music, you want this album.
