The GTO's were formerly known as the Laurel Canyon Ballet Company. These five girls were signed to Straight after the label owner, Frank Zappa hired Miss Christine as a baby sitter and heard her songs. Zappa produced most of the album and invited some Mothers Of Invention to form the backing group: Jimmy Carl Black, Don Preston, Roy Estrada, Lowell George (who wrote and produced several tracks), Ian Underwood, Jeff Beck, Rod Stewart and Nicky Hopkins also appear in places.
The songs are notably dealing with the groupies phenomenon and the original pressing came with a booklet "The Groupie Papers" . The GTO's also appeared on one track on the Wild Man Fischer album and on the inner gatefold of Three Dog Night's Suitable For Framing.
A long time girlfriend of Alice Cooper, Miss Christine died of an heroin overdose in 1972. Miss Pamela married Michael Des Barres, the singer of the english group Silverhead, and later wrote several books about her various experiences. ~ (Stephane Rebeschini/Vladimir Zhigulin)
