Didn't she and/or the Ronnettes sue Phil for back royalties? If so this info sould be added.
Yes she succesfully sued, a case that took a couple of decades to wind it's way through the courts, and through a total of 17 appeals. Badgirlrock ( talk) 22:55, 30 August 2010 (UTC)GSP o/b/o Ronnie Spector
Is there someone who actuall has this album and can read aloud the year of its publication?
Whereas Genya Ravan writes in her book: 1982, I found several 1980s, including one that claims, that two of the tracks were recorded in 1981(!). If you deem this important enough, also go to
Genya Ravan and correct me (along with the rest of my bad English).

Please, can we have a different photo? This one is really awful. -andy 92.229.166.34 ( talk) 03:10, 6 July 2010 (UTC)
could you possibly have picked an uglier photo of Ronnie; she is a beautiful woman but what the fuck is this? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 146.151.48.54 ( talk) 12:37, May 17, 2013 (UTC)
the disambiguation link at the top is so bizarre that I'm afraid to change it - is "simular" a new word based on "simulate" or is this just a very un-wikipedialike error? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kevintimba ( talk • contribs) 21:11, 21 April 2014 (UTC)

This article is a little confusing because "Spector" refers sometimes to Ronnie and sometimes to Phil. I suggest that all references to Phil be changed to "Phil Spector" (or "Phil" where needed for brevity). -- HLachman ( talk) 17:54, 29 July 2019 (UTC)

I felt it was a fair request that a new picture of Ronnie Spector is used as her primary photo that doesn't look like she's trying to hide her blackness. This is tacky and I think many people would appreciate this revision. 2603:6010:8845:5900:2874:6E5E:ECF1:F829 ( talk) 06:03, 22 January 2021 (UTC)
I just want to point out that the article is inconsistent with names. It uses both "Bennett" and "Spector" to refer to Ronnie (or is it Veronica, i don't know). Lead uses Bennet, Early Life starts with Spector, Spector is used even after her name changed to Greenfield, etc. I'm not familiar with the Wikipedia alphabet soup policy to help determine which to use, but it should probably be a little more consistent.

I think this paragraph is misleading:
That makes it sound like Phil voiced his objections in 2007, while he was awaiting trial. He did not. He sent his letter in 1994. GA-RT-22 ( talk) 13:48, 19 January 2022 (UTC)
