Grew up listening to doo wop and rock and roll. My dad nurtured my appreciation for the music because it was the music of his youth. Thanks for being a part of the best genre of music ever and giving the world the gift of Rosie and the Originals.

I was 9 when I first heard 'Angel Baby' and went to the record store (do they have those any more?) to buy myself a copy. Well, there record is gone now. But the song is not. I was driving home from work several days ago and suddenly your song came to my head. I had to hear it once more! Thanks for the music! Thanks for the web site. And most of all, thanks for the memories.

I was just 7 years old when I was captivated by your beautiful song. My older sister owned a transistor radio and she bought the record. I have played guitar since 1966 but never performed until this year at the old age of 62. I never thought I would perform. My my songs deal with animal rights and survival and the message forced me out of my self-exposed musical closet. Now , I like performing in open mike venues and anywhere else I can find. It is not about the money, of course. My message is important. And I love singing your song. Many blessings to you, Rosie.

Rosie Hamlin: Your song, Angel Baby, is one of a kind, and one of the BEST EVER! When it was released in late 1960, I was 15 years old, just as you were. Your pure and clear voice gives that song its unmatched beauty. Like millions of boys, I fell in love with that voice. I like everything about that song. I like the intro, the four 4-note arpeggios, and their plaintive sound with their octaves bent upward. I like the way the song has several separate instrumental and vocal sections, and the power of the base that continues uninterrupted through all the changes. But the singer, and her pretty high and pure voice, are the centerpiece of the song, and the source of its beauty. Thank you for that unequalled beautiful and powerful slow-dance song! Michael Ossipoff, age 70. Born 1945. Junior High School 1957-1959. December 1960, beginning 10th grade at 15.

Rosie, I am Brooklyn (Midwood) New York, born and raised and grew up in a family of music lovers, from my parents, to my brother Stephen who would eventually introduce me to what he called group harmony records, which would soon be referred to as "do-wop" Our go to music emporium was the former Harniks House of Music on Avenue "J".it was there that all Lps and 45s were purchased.which included your seminal hit "Angel Baby". I laugh looking back at how we played our records.on a Voice of Music machine that played 33/45/and 78 records:-) I think we wore out the needle playing Angel Baby!! Your song will always evoke wonderful happy days in my earliest days of life.thank you for being a part of musical rock history, and the joy you had on my brother and I every time the turntable rolled with Angel Baby.

Rosie, I first heard "Angel Baby" when it was released - I was in 9th grade. I could go on and on in praise of your song, but suffice it to say it remains my favorite love song to this day. Thank you, Rosie!
