Few artists in history have define an entire era in pop music the way Ronnie Spector embodies the heart, soul, and passion of female rock and roll in the 1960s. You might know her as the leader of The Ronnettes, the girl group that gave us Be My Baby and Baby, I Love You. You might know her from that Eddie Money video from the '80s where he sings, "Just like-a Ronnie said." Or maybe you know her as the ex wife of that crazy guy with the bad wigs who killed a chick he picked up at the House of Blues a few years back. Either way, the woman who once boasted Cher as her backup singer and the Rolling Stones her opening act is an icon: of music, of survival, of longevity. Beehive, eyeliner and all.
