Editorial Reviews

UK reissue of the girl group's debut album, recorded before they met and became associated with producer Phil Spector. Initially a regional success, this debut proves that the girls already had their unique sound in place and were more than confident in the studio. This reissue includes the original artwork, pictures from the sessions and sleeve notes by original producer Stu Phillips. 11 tracks including 'Silhouettes', 'He Did It', 'You Bet I Would' and 'Recipe For Love'. EMI Gold. 2004.

4.0 out of 5 stars I don't know what the other reviewer is talking about, March 24, 2006

This album in no way pretends to be the Phil Specor album. The amazon editorial reviewer may have been confused in calling this their first album because it was recorded before their Spector days but released later on but the Red cover is correct. All the songs it says are on it ARE on it.
The other pictures were uploaded by a Amazon customer and are of the wrong album.

While we're at it, the album is very, very good. Different to their Spector recordings (its in stereo!) but totally worth buying. It also contains an interesting essay in the booklet, including a note from Ronnie Spector, lending the album some authenticity.

This is an old rehash of the earliest Ronettes music originally released on Colpix records very early 1960's. The picture of the 1964 album, WITH THE LISTING OF THE BIG HITS ON THE COVER IN VIEW; was so misleading I ordered it and have to return it now. Amazon obviously was mislead in the same way as I, in that NOW they (EMI) calls it The Ronettes "featuring Veronica"! Presenting The Fabulous Ronettes was Spectors 64 release, redone in 1967 by arrangement with Philles Records for the 1st time in STEREO and a magnificent job it was! I had the original LP. Stereo is on the picture here too. Hope they will get this straight; don't be mislead to buy based on the cover! They are not yet even listing the titles as they do on all CD's. Only in the front cover photo are they seen, and NONE of these are on the CD,
