Ronnie Spector was fun Saturday night at the Howard Theatre. Struttin around and getting sentimental(she lives in Connecticut near the shooting site; also for John lennon, Joey Ramone & Amy Winehouse), doing Ronettes songs and covering Johnny Thunders' "You Can't Put Your Arms Around a Memory" from one of her solo efforts. They were projecting old Ronettes footage and newsppaper clippings and such on the wall behind her and the band.

Ronnie did a comeback single with Eddie Money Bruce's E-Streed Band, and made a Billy Joel song something of awesomeness..

You're right. Her Eddie Money duet was ten years later

She had quite a few comebacks:
With George Harrison (nice production (PSpec), not a great song. Cool b-side tho.
With "Say goodbye to Hollywood" as above, marv.
With Joey Ramoney, obv.
And the EdMon one, I guess (don't know it)..

.. Enough for people to say "oh, were you away then"? maybe.
