Quote: Susanna plays both her black signature Rick and the white one that I think was a prototype. Funny story. There was a white prototype of the SH model for sale on ebay about a year and a half ago. I suspect that someone close to SH got ahold of it and thought it would bring a decent price. It was white with black/checkered top binding with 3 hi-gains, black trim and a black TRC, kind of a negative image of the actual SH model. The bidding quickly went up to over $3K and the auction was pulled. I think it was being offered w/out SH knowing about it and was pulled when she found out. Kind of similar to the tale told in the amusing thread, "I'm Glad I Pulled My Husband's Parts Off Ebay", if you know what I mean.

Um...I always preferred Michael Steele, the band's bass player.
I saw the Bangles in a club during their breakthrough year of 1986 and stood in front of her the entire show....(swoon).
She also sang some of the more interesting songs on their records but sadly, even though they all sang lead vocals, the record company only pushed the ones that Susanna sang.

I've always equated Michael Steele's voice to that of George Harrison's. Whenever she sang with the Bangles, her songs always reminded me of George's contributions to the Beatles. They were interesting & memorable.

Vintage paper of anykind is going to be worth some dollar amount... I wouldn't be discouraged from making any new posters because of that. Just save a handful for yourself when you make them.
You had to know the minute you put John Lennon's likeness on the 325JL poster it was an instant collectable.
Mr.Hall, I still laugh to myself about that email you sent me explaining the Susanna Hoffs LE... That was good stuff!
