Re: Les Vegas, I don't know.

I know that wasn't helpful, but bear with me. You can't go wrong with "To
Helen With Love." There is some excellent Helen Wheels songwriting
orchestrated by groupings such as Al/Joe/Buck Dharma and Joe & "2 guys from
Alice Cooper." I have both this album and Solid Citizens and I would
definitely recommend the former.

That said, the final Helen Wheels (and the Skeleton Crew) album might be
even better. Here are some of her best lyrics presented garage band style by
The Skeleton Crew (a.k.a. Static Cling). Think Detroit rock 'n' roll fronted
by a punk priestess.
