an international hit, going to #3 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100, #4 on the U.S. Cash Box chart, #5 in the U.K., and #3 in Ireland. The lineup for the group has changed many times, but for this record, although there have been disputes, the members were Barbara Alston, Mary Thomas, Dolores "LaLa" Brooks, Dolores "Dee Dee" Kenniebrew, and Patricia


 

"Patsy" Wright. “That's solid gold coming out of that speaker,” producer Phil Spector told Sonny Bono, when they listened to the final playback of "Da Doo Ron Ron.” (Sonny

 

worked for Spector in the early 1960s and Cher did some backup singing.) This was Spector’s first real “Wall of Sound” production, recorded in Gold Star Studios in L.A. He packed The Crystals and all the other musicians into a 19’x24’ room and spent hours placing microphones -- especially for drummer Hal Blaine. Spector recorded in mono, tailoring the sound to car radios. Vocals were recorded in an echo chamber located behind

 

the control room at Gold Star.



 

Here are the lyrics: "I met him on a Monday and my heart stood still Da doo ron ron ron, da

 

doo ron ron Some boy told me that his name was Bill Da doo ron ron ron, da doo ron ron

 

Yes, my heart stood still Yes, his name was Bill And when he walked me home Da doo ron

 

ron ron, da doo ron ron He knew what he was doin' when he caught my eye Da doo ron ron ron, da doo ron ron He looked so quiet but my, oh, my Da doo ron ron ron, da doo ron ron

 

Yes, he caught my eye Yes, but my, oh, my And when he walked me home Da doo ron ron

 

ron, da doo ron ron Da doo ron ron ron, da doo ron ron Da doo ron ron ron, da doo ron ron

 

Picked me up at seven and he looked so fine Da doo ron ron ron, da doo ron ron Someday

 

soon I'm gonna make him mine Da doo ron ron ron, da doo ron ron Yes, he looked so fine Yes, I'll make him mine And when he walked me home Da doo ron ron ron, da doo ron ron

 

Da doo ron ron ron, da doo ron ron Da doo ron ron ron, da doo ron ron Da doo ron ron ron, da doo ron ron'
