LISTENERS REVIEW
In
a bizarre way you have to admire Bebe Buell. She's
certainly followed her own path through life which has included
stints as a model, a Playboy centerfold, a slew of high profile
relationships with rock stars including David Bowie, Barry Cowsill,
Elvis Costello, Mick Jagger, Iggy Pop, Todd Rungren, John Taylor, and
Steven Tyler (father of her daughter Live Tyler), a talent manager,
and a musician.
Hangin'
with rock stars seemingly convinced Buell she had what it took to be
a musician herself. Working separately with Rick Derringer and
The Cars, she made her recording debut with the 1981 four track EP
"Covers Girl". The two tracks on side 'A' were
produced by Rick Derringer, while the flip side found Buell working
with Ric Ocasek and the rest of The Cars. All four tracks
reflected a distinctive new wave orientation. The musical
choices were clearly intended to attract the attention of a young
crowd, but the four songs also seemingly minimized the demands
made on Buell's limited, little girl voice.
