Amazingly, Darlene Love, a superb vocalist, hasn’t had much of a track record as a solo singer, at least not in terms of hits. Love was a founding member of the Blossoms in 1957. They did several sessions and were resident singers on the television show Shindig. Love sang lead vocals on “He’s a Rebel,” which was credited to the Crystals, and “Zip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah,” which was issued as Bob B. Soxx and the Bluejeans. She cut six singles for Spector’s Phillies label, with “Wait Till My Bobby Gets Back Home” the most successful. Love became busy as an actress, but reunited with Spector for the 1977 single “Lord, If You’re a Woman.” Love appeared in all four Lethal Weapon films, and was also in the Royal Shakespeare Company’s co-production of Stephen King’s Carrie. Her 1990 LP, Paint Another Picture, failed to chart in America. Love later toured as a background vocalist with Cher. She appeared briefly on the soap opera Another World in 1993.
