"Top Of The Hour," yes.  "Cooker," not so much.  WOS.

Their only hit. As you may know, they were much-hyped at the time as the first all-woman rock band.   In '74 they did a fabulous cover of "I've Had It" that sadly missed the Top 40.

Ditto.  But since Mike sez it's Fanny I looked them up.  Gaz, this has to go on our lists of great songs to peak at #40!

They only got back into the top 40 one more time at #29 with a song called "Butter Boy" which I'm also sure I've never heard.  By that time Suzi Quattro's sister Patti was playing bass for them.

Thanks, I forgot about "Butter Boy". So they had 2 hits.  Wonder if there's a best-of available.

But what about The Shaggs?

Alice Cooper, "Eighteen'

I wasn't much older than 18 when this came out.  Classic.

On another note, I saw them open for someone at Fillmore West, and it was a totally different show.  Instead of psychedelic lights, they used dramatic lighting at front of stage, often casting big silhoutettes on back wall.

I was gonna say something about "let's not split hairs" but that's a lot of hairs to split!   But "First all-woman band on a major label" is what I shoulda said...
