Honey LTD were a girl group who sang on Bob Seger System's "Ramblin; Gamblin' Man" as Wayne State co-eds, before getting on the bus to Hollywood, where they were signed to the musically awesome, biz-inept Lee Hazlewood Industries label. They were soon opening for the likes of Love, The Doors, Buffalo Springfield etc at the Whiskey A-Go-Go, and Sonny & Cher and Nancy & Lee in Vegas---you can hear why on their mindblowing The Complete Recordings finally out last year on Light In The Attic. Most relevant to this thread is their country-pop reincarnation as Eve---album w that moniker hasn't been reissued, but some tracks are on the 'Tube, like this:

Speaking of Spotify, get yore ass over there and check out There's A Dream I've Been Saving, which is Lee, Honey Ltd/Eve, and all their totally compatible (thus idiosyncratic) labelmates, incl. Ann-Margret in leather and lace duets with Lee-Lou, and solo, at her Mojave Iggy Stoogest:
