PS = Out of interest, so you know a little of my tastes in both departments, I believe The Witches of Elswick are a fine example of a very attractive (to me anyway!) female group using their music rather than their sexuality to 'sell'. Going back some ways I could use your example of Peggy Lee, or to be nearer the 'pop' genre, how about the Supremes? There are thousands of other exaples so it CAN be done.
