Baby, I Love You
Phil Spector decided to keep lead singer Ronnie Bennett in California to record "Baby, I Love You" while the other two Ronettes, Estelle Bennett and Nedra Talley, went out on the tour with Dick Clark. Ronnie's cousin, Elaine, took her place on the tour while Ronnie recorded the song at Gold Star Studios in California. Since the other Ronettes were unavailable for recording, Spector used Darlene Love and Cher to complete the backing vocals. The song also featured Leon Russell on piano. "Baby, I Love You" peaked at number 11 in the UK during January 1964, at a time when the Ronettes were touring the UK as the support act to the Rolling Stones.
The Raelettes
In these early years Margie Hendrix was the Raelette's foremost member. Ray Charles said about her, "Aretha, Gladys, Etta James — these gals are all bad, but on any given night, Margie will scare you to death." 
The first line-up that backed Ray during live performances consisted of Margie Hendrix, Pat Lyles, and Gwen Berry. The second known line-up was Margie Hendrix , Patricia Lyles, Gwen Berry, and Darlene McCrea. From the early years until the end the group always consisted out of 4 or 5 singers. Rita Graham recorded the album "Vibrations", produced by Ray Charles for his Tangerine label, "before" she briefly sub'ed as Raelette in the summer of 1968. For several other girls Ray Charles also produced and released one or more solo singles: Margie Hendrix, Clydie King, Alex Brown, Dorothy Berry, and Madelyn Quebec (Ray frequently backing them on piano). In 1973 Margie Hendrix Died of a Drug Overdose
