Thank God for Jeff Barry

I've posted the full interview clip of Jeff Barry talking about working with Phil Spector a few times over the years, and I've always been in love with this impromptu run-through of Da-Doo Ron Ron he does while explaining how he'd written it with his wife/songwriting parter Ellie Greenwich. So it turns out that besides writing such stone-cold classics such as Do Wah Diddy Diddy, Da Doo Ron Ron, Then He Kissed Me, Be My Baby, and River Deep - Mountain High, Barry just sitting there running thru a DIFFERENT version of one those massive hits is still a better song that 99% of songs ever made! Incredible; I would sprint to the record store tomorrow and pay whatever $ for a full-on version of this!!!! 🤗🥲

CAN ONE OF YOU RICH PEOPLE FUCKING PONY UP SOME $$CASH$$ AND GET JEFF BARRY TO RECORD A FULL VERSION OF THIS VERY SOON PLEASE?!?!?! (he's 86!).
