“Be My Baby” (Andy Kim) #17 12/19/1970

One of the most enduring hits of the girl group sound came from the Ronettes in 1963. The opening drum lick from Hal Blaine has been imitated like no other, as has Phil Spector’s “Wall Of Sound” production style. One of the better cover versions here came from Andy Kim. This was his last big hit until “Rock Me Gently” in 1974. Video is from Dutch TV - look for Mariska Veres from the group Shocking Blue in the clip.
