Hottest woman of the 80's??

[Craig Johnson]

That's right. Lita Ford. Found a very basic partial backing track (pretty much drums) and made a whole one out of it. Wanted to try some layering. I heard this song last week and didn't figure it would be as hard to record as it was. It was a good learning experience though. Lots of picking. Practice practice practice:thumbsup

Gear used:
'87 LK-1BF
Boss ME-25 (4 different settings)
Sonar LE recording software
Lots of patience!!

Yeah, tribute to her mom. Can you imagine all the hell Lita put her thru growin' up?

[mmmtacos]

I always thought Lita Ford was kind of a skank:whistle

[Mcniggleston]

I always thought Lita Ford was kind of a skank:whistle

Say that to her husband. :D He's not a little "whiny" singer anymore as people used to make fun of him for. :happy1 Now he's probably tearing those people in half....Jim Gillette is the man. :thumbsup

[Craig Johnson]

[Full Crib]

[Kramer Crybaby]

Susanna Hoffs :drool

[kramer.geetar]

Ah man, Susanna Hoffs. What a woman, what a voice. Still looking amazing after all these years. Belinda Carlisle is another one of my favourites

[kramerSquatch]

Nuthin sexier than watchin old vids of Nancy Wilson play guitar

[Craig Johnson]

I have to agree with most of the names mentioned. They were hot. Hoff's eyes were smokin'. Nunn is still smokin' hot. Just always had a thing for Lita after I saw this video. Besides, the song reminds of the one I should have married.:happy1

[JGB]

Good call on Terri Nunn, she does still look good!

Susanna Hoffs for sure...

Samantha Fox gets my vote! I remember my friend's brother had one of her topless posters back in the day. We'd find any excuse we could to try and get in his room. Her music wasn't the worst thing I've ever heard either.

[Mcniggleston]

Craig, i came back to this cover for 2 reasons.

1. I realized i forgot to tell you that you did an awesome job...

2. Leather Leone is a total babe, and i forgot about her until now (thanks for the reminder Ben) :happy1

[mmmtacos]

And that would not be appealing to you :scratchhe She made me want to :censored and :censored until I :censored:censored:censored on the ceiling:yikes Anyway it was fun to record it.
:happy1 Are you saying skanks are appealing to me:lol:poke

Now Vixen was HOT! Pretty Pretty women:drool

[Mcniggleston]

Now Vixen was HOT! Pretty Pretty women:drool

I said Jan K. in my "hottest" in one of my earlier posts. :thumbsup

[kb7010]

I have to agree with this line..

" Farah Fawcett in her red swim suit poster every guy had hanging in his bed room in the late 1970s. 's a chance to hang this butie in your shop or on your garage wall. "

" The poster became a best seller, one of the highest grossing poster of the post war era, with online estimates ranging from 5 to 12 million copies. " :yikes


THE POSTER ..!!!!! ( ok a link .. sorry )
http://www.famouspictures.org/images/d/d6/Farrah_Fawcett.jpg

I don't know of ANY kid/guy that DIDN'T have one of those in his room when I wore a very younger man's shoe..!!!


where there others.??? well sure.. the Wilson Sister's ( from the band Heart ) looked :drool back in the day to name two of MANY.. in fact Nancy Wilson ( the last time I seen her ) still looks good to my old eyes..!!! ;) esp. since we are about the same age..???? <-- the key point IMO..!!!!! ie: age and how they look NOW..!!!!

but I must also agree that all the other names would work for me ( as long as they STILL look good.. ) ;)
but I am a married man so it really doesn't matter anyway.. that and those rich women don't want a dead beat bum like you or me because they can get/have just about any " rich guy " they want..!!! lucky bastards..!!!! :D

[SDRM17]

Hands Down, Bobby Brown (the cherry pie chick) And she is still SMOKIN!!!!

[Craig Johnson]

:happy1 Are you saying skanks are appealing to me:lol:poke

Are you saying they're not?:poke:) I didn't say "Married to". Chicks you would want to :censored. There's a big difference to me.
