In the spring of 1964, Jerry Lieber, Mike Stoller and George Goldner asked Jeff Barry and Ellie Greenwich to help them start up a record label. Sisters Barbara and Rosalie Hawkins, and cousin Joan-Marie Johnson were among several New Orleans-based groups brought to Red-Bird Records. The girls were put under the care of Jeff and Ellie who began rehearsing the girls on a song theyd written the previous year with Phil Spector for the Ronettes. It became a massive hit and a huge cash generator for the new label.

Although this has the same title as the Dixie Cups' opus, it's a totally different song. Once a sought-after collector's item, it's now available for free on Youtube.
