Lamont Dozier claims the the strident piano pounding was inspired by looking out of his window and seeing tanks coming down the Detroit streets as the s became ever more turbulent, while the rattling percussion sound you hear is not just tambourines, but also snow-chains.

These three sisters from San Francisco — led by the incredibly named Priscilla Paris — were Phil Spector proteges, with the young producer coaxing a sultry, slow tempo sound from them. This B-side departs from that signature style — a rattling, rockabilly number with a melody that feels as if it's been reincarnated several times over the decades of future pop, in music from Grease to Glasvegas. Is it blasphemous to pick a girl group playlist without including Be My Baby , for many people the greatest pop song ever released? The song — which riffs on a common girl-group theme of how other people, most likely killjoy parents, won't accept your love — was originally set to be the Ronettes' first single with Spector, before the producer decided to go with Be My Baby instead.

By the time The Beatles came along, the 45 was selling in vast numbers — at least it was for some artists. Hundreds of millions of singles were sold every year in the 60s, and while there was a great deal more million-sellers back then, there were also a many more records released. Success depended on getting a single on the radio, and then getting it on heavy rotation to convince people to go out and buy it.
Tucked between the early street corner Doo Wop groups and the mids British invasion was the phenomenon known as the Girl Groups. With names like the Teen Queens, Chantels, the Ronettes, Shangri-Las, Shirelles, and The Crystals, they offered vocal harmonies that was eagerly embraced by a wide audience. Starting in , all-Girl Groups became more visible and started to hit the charts with regularity.
