Happy Birthday, Michael Steele!

Micheal Steele was the bass player for the Bangles.  Apparently she was also in the Runaways before they broke big...  who knew?  Per wikipedia:  "In 1983, Steele replaced original bassist Annette Zilinskas as a member of the Bangles. Steele made her entrance just in time to play on the band's first full-length album, All Over the Place. She remained with the Bangles throughout the high point of their career, contributing as bassist, vocalist, and songwriter".

I discovered the Bangles when All Over The Place was current, and have it on vinyl.  Great record.

Micheal Steele is the one on the right, in case you don't know which is the bass player...
