Thread Name: Deadly Nightshade (band)
Subject: Deadly Nightshade
Any others on the list who appreciated the work of DEADLY NIGHTSHADE?

from their website:
The Deadly Nightshade is a New England-based, all-female band consisting of musicians Pamela Brandt, Anne Bowen and Helen Hooke. As one of the first outspokenly feminist women’s rock bands in the United States, our musical repertoire (and attitude) has expanded over the years to encompass rock, soul, kick-ass country/bluegrass, and whatever else makes us and our audiences feel good.

There were only 2 LP releases of their work, on PHANTOM/RCA.

Phantom BPL1-0955 THE DEADLY NIGHTSHADE 1975
features Felix Cavaliere, Eric Weissberg, the Brecker Brothers and Leslie West!
"Keep On The Sunny Side; High Flying Woman; Something Blue; Losin' At Love; Someone Down In Nashville; Nose Job; Sweet, Sweet Music; I Sent My Soul To The Laundromat; Shuffle; Dance, Mr. Big, Dance; Blue Mountain Hornpipe; Onions".

Phantom BLP1 1370 F&W (Funky & Western) 1976
