Be My Baby

The Ronettes

Spanish Harlem, New York City trio The Ronettes reach No. 2 U.S., No. 4 U.K. with the single "Be My Baby". The song was recorded at Gold Star Studios in Los Angeles using Phil Spector's "wall of sound" multilayered production technique. The band later has six Top 40 hits, but never again reaches the U.S. Top 10.
