Be My Baby

As the world’s biggest Ronettes fan (well, at least under the age of 55), I was upset to learn that Estelle Bennett (second from the left in the above picture) passed away last week. What is even more upsetting is this Times article, where you can see the breakdown of one of the key contributors to the 1960s girl groups. It’s hard to believe that a woman who “helped redefine rock ’n’ roll femininity” had to secretly deal with anorexia, schizophrenia and homelessness. Maybe that’s what’s working with this guy and dating this guy will do to you…
