Black Angel once had an extremely beautiful back up singer who also had a beautiful friend who joined us for about three months when we were in Los Angeles.  We had been recording with some of the greatest female back up singers in LA at the time and Georgene and her friend weren't quite as good so we let them go.

Boy were we stupid.  These girls were gorgeous, sexy and really nice.
