Ronnie Spector
Ronnie Spector's new CD, Last of the Rock Stars, is simply the best and most-fully realized album of her career. For the first time ever, Ronnie is in full control of her material, arrangements, and production which explains the remarkable warmth and vitality of her performances throughout the album.

Career:
Spector took to singing from very young age and her large, close family encouraged her to do so, along with the other members of the Ronettes, her sister Estelle Bennett and cousin Nedra Talley. The Ronettes were a multiracial group, which was a bit unusual during the 1960s. The Bennetts' mother was black and Native American; their father was Irish. In her autobiography, Ronnie Spector said that at one point in her childhood, she was not sure if she was black or white.

Following were the huge hits by The Ronnie in 60s. ? Be My Baby
? Baby I Love You
? Walking in the Rain They disbanded in 1966 after the public apparently lost their taste for the girl group sound. From 1968 to 1974, she was married to Phil Spector, and took his name professionally. However by her own account, he kept her a near-prisoner and limited her opportunities to pursue her musical ambitions. In her autobiography, she said that he would force her to watch the film Citizen Kane as a way to remind her that she would be nothing without him. She and Spector separated in 1973 and divorced one year later.

In 1986, Eddie Money had a big hit with Take Me Home Tonight, on which Spector was featured prominently as a guest vocalist, singing part of the chorus. She also sang a duet with Southside Johnny on You Mean So Much To Me Baby. Billy Joel's 1976 hit Say Goodbye To Hollywood is a tribute to Spector.

In 1999 she released the critically acclaimed album, She Talks to Rainbows, which featured a few covers of older songs. Joey Ramone acted as producer, and appeared on stage with her to promote the record. In 2003, she provided backing vocals for the Misfits' album, Project 1950.

Her autobiography, Be My Baby, How I Survived Mascara, Miniskirts, and Madness, co-authored by Vince Waldron, was published in 1989 and became an international bestseller. In 2004, Onyx Books republished the book in a revised and updated mass market paperback edition.

She now lives in Connecticut with her second husband, Jonathan Greenfield, and their two sons, Austin Drew and Jason Charles. She also hosts an annual Christmas party at BB King's bar and grill in New York.

Spector's most recent album Last of the Rock Stars has been released. A new single, All I Want accompanies the Keith Richards and Patti Smith and they are among Spector's collaborators on the album. The Ronettes were invested into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2007.
