Details:
In 1972 after surviving the andy warhol underground scene Elda Stilletto started her first band with "Walk on the Wild Side's" Holly Woodlawn. Holly spun off to become a cabaret singer so Elda found a waitress at Max's Kansas City, Debbie Harry and a few other musicians and launched the Stillettos. Two years later when offered a record deal for only the female vocalists, the band split. Elda continued to perform as a soloist until 1975. Wrecked by the death of her long time lover Eric Emerson of the Magic Tramps, she didn't take the stage again until 1977. Diamonds In The Rough was recorded at The Turning Mill Studio - analogue- in 1993 It features Branch Emerson from the Bratles on guitar and drums, Genya Raven from Ten Wheel Drive on 2 songs, Owen Swenson from the Stillettos of 1975, Sredni Vollmer of the Rick Danko Band and Rick Danko playing bass on Cinderelda's Revenge. Her book Elda Rose is soon to be released. It gives all the dark, sorted and hilarious details of what happened to her up until 1975. Be on the lookout for it.
