A bit obscure, but here goes…

Ellen Foley: initial fame because she sang the co-lead on Meatloaf’s biggest song “Paradise by the Dashboard Light" as well as the female backgrounds on his debut album Bat out of Hell. She actually because more well known as an actress. ( TVs Night Court)​

Pat Benatar: I’m sure she needs no introduction.

Ellen Shipley: musician, but mostly a songwriter. (Belinda Carlisle, Dionne Warwick, Kim Carnes, Laura Brannigan)

Good post combo--Ellen Foley also dated Mick Jones for a while and sang backup on several songs on Sandinista and Combat Rock. In turn, Mick and Joe wrote songs for her second solo album, which all four members of the band performed on. According to Wiki, "Should I Stay Or Should I Go?" was written about their relationship.

Cool trivia! Serendipity to be sure!

Jimmy is soaking wet and Ronnie is dry, they both have fairly heavy jackets on. Ronnie looks like he's working harder though.

Who says white boys can't sorta dance. It's easier when you're lip syncing and air playing.

Ehh, they’re just following in the footsteps(so to speak)of The Shadows, the UK’s version of The Ventures(and the heroes of scores of British Invasion bands)…

Speaking of The Ventures, they could move and groove…

However, it’s not likely that The Chantays ever heard of The Shadows, they were never promoted here; the only British band of that ilk in those days that had any impact were The Tornadoes with “Telstar”, and anyway, a British band playing rock’n’roll? What a ridiculous notion.
