Re: Ronnie Spector Of Ronettes Fame Is Gone At 78
I notice on the Oldies Board that Rosa Hawkins also passed away on Wednesday. Who was she? One of the lead voices on the iconic "Chapel of Love" and an original member of The Dixie Cups.
It has been a horrible start to the New Year!

Re: Ronnie Spector Of Ronettes Fame Is Gone At 78
Ronnie Spector was one of my favourite interviews. I actually got to interview her twice. Once was with Warren Cosford in 1981 when we were producing the radio series that Telemedia syndicated called "The Producers". Naturally, it was for the Phil Spector program. Then I interviewed her again when her autobiography came out in 1990. She was so honest and forthcoming with her answers. She gave me a full hour even though it had been scheduled for half an hour. I got to tell her that I had seen The Ronettes in 1964 in Edmonton with the Spring Shower of Stars tour with Dion, Shirley Ellis and The Ripchords.
