The Group That Was BLACKEDBALLED | The Untold Truth Of The Ronettes

[@sandramorris420]

“Great talent, Great voices, Pure Magic.” Love ❤️ The Ronettes. R.I.P. To Estelle Bennett 2009 at the age of 67 and R.I.P. Ronnie Spector 2022, at the age of 78

[@alexandradillard2077]

Thanks for this. They were all pretty women. I’m glad she got royalties for Be My Baby. And I’m very glad that Phil Spector finally got his!

[@rickyparrilla2426]

The Ronettes are such a legendary group. There music will live on for decades to come. They had what every group needed to make it big. Great looks, great style and great music. You need those three things if you are trying to make it in the music business and the Ronettes definitely had all three. The Ronettes were what the 1960s was all about. RIP Estelle Bennett and Ronnie Spector.🙏

Very well done. I miss Ronnie.

I was surprised to see Chip Fields as one of the members of the group. Never knew that

[@michele462]

I enjoyed this video. I never knew Chip Fields was a Ronnette. 👍

[@andrewthornhill7042]

@michele462 Only after Ronnie tried to reform the group in the 1970s and couldn't get either Estelle or Nedra on board.

[@phillipsolesky2677]

You provided a great narrative my friend. Loved me some Ronnie Spector, But Phil S made me sick just looking at him. I thought their best song was Sleigh Ride. I'm not crazy about X mas music, but I love that one!

[@elizabethsheffield6609]

......ditto........dislike Xmas Music. Yuk!

[@FriendofDorothy]

Trust me, The Ronettes were MAGICAL to a 10 year old kid in a small town in the Midwest in the '60s. Their look, their sound. I about died when I saw them on American Bandstand. I still think "Be My Baby" was the most perfect pop record ever made!

[@elizabethsheffield6609]

........for me & huge reminders of my youth, it IS............. ............ "THE SHIRELLES' "WILL YOU STILL LOVE ME TOMORROW"

This was a great video, I learned a few things!!

[@nicolesherman8974]

Zendaya would eat the role of Ronnie Spector.

[@janshelton189]

She’s supposed to be in the movie about the Ronettes.

[@moviegirl8648]

I like Zendaya, but she is just too tall, 5'9". Ronnie seems to be no taller than 5'2".

[@laHagans]

I’m not sold on her acting ability but I would watch.

[@Shadowbannddiscourse]

So underrated thank you

[@Gerrygambone]

The Ronettes three glamourous beautiful talented ladies.

[@isaiahcoleman-s8u]

So, she got mixed up with a fool, pretending to be jealous and really trying to control her life, she should have drop his last name, very sad how people come in your life and mess it up.

[@IceSkater8491]

Great video! I've always loved the Ronettes. Excellent!

Great video as always. Did know the Ronnettes were originally sisters . Ronnie had a privileged voice . Sad life Ronnie had will Phil Spector but in the end karma got him

@soniatorres5227. Ronnie and Estelle were sisters, Nedra their first cousin.

[@lamper2]

1:05 That story about them being locked in a room sounds oddly like another phony story about the Jagger/Richards starting days

[@janshelton189]

Not a story. It happened.

[@robert5494]

My favorite song by Ronnie was "Is that what time it is I want to come over" that came out in 1978.

[@Jack-ke5uv]

The Ronettes sounded better in live performances than on record. On record, the voices of Nedra and Estelle were always overdubbed with a chorus of studio session singers or completely absent from the track. The first time I heard Nedra and Estelle live without all the studio session singers was an eye opener. Their voices were so good that I could not understand why Phil Spector muted their voices on recordings with session singers or kept them off the session completely.

[@janice9322]

@@Jack-ke5uv probably in such sick way to stiffle them and separate them from Ronnie...abuser do that try to sow strife with who the people they'love' love

I liked when Ronnie sang with south-side Johnny. When I first heard the song I thought wow that girl has a future in music....then I checked the liner notes and it was Ronnie.

[@Nestor123057]

Nedra has stated she loved to dance and it is evident in some live performances when the girls do their thing. Unfortunately, these are very rare because Phil was very controlling and didn't like any of them, especially Ronnie. going off script.

[@saj8]

Ronnie was a fine looking woman in her day.

O' One is still alive and the other two died.

[@michaelhughes8057]

The Ronettes were one of the greatest Girl Groups of the 1960's. They hsd many great songs! It's too bad they were treated so badly by Spector. At least Ronnie's remaining later years with Springfield were happy. Thanks for the great songs Ronnie, Estelle and Nedra! RIP Estelle, & Ronnie! I miss you both! I'm glad Nedra is still alive. As for Spector, he may have been a musical genius, but very few people in the recording industry liked him! RIP Spector, and may God forgive me, but good riddance to you! You murdered Lana Clarkson! I hope for your sake as people say, you aren't presently writing songs in Hell with Charles Manson!

[@notfakenewsofpa386]

Good looking girls.

Ronnie was the duana ross of rhe group meaning she married phil spector & than tried to get away from him. I thought they were a black group
