My (signed) cardboard cover copy has the Bonnie Tyler text. I don't seem to be able to post images to this forum for some reason, but the story there is slightly different, in that it has the incident happening in Cale's apartment after returning from a European tour in 1975.

Thank-you. I have subsequently found this on a Bonnie Tyler page
https://www.geneticmatrix.com/tyler-bon ... chart.html
Cale claimed that after returning to his apartment in London after a European tour in the 1970s he found a group of women in his apartment. He wrote, "Tempers flared and I threw them all out, except one who simply would not go but returned to kick in the door." He mentioned that the woman was in a band called "Bunny", and believed that she was Bonnie Tyler, based solely on the fact that she was Welsh. However, at the time Tyler had already signed with RCA Records and was due to be releasing her second single "Lost in France" a few weeks later. Her manager also denied the claim, stating that she had never met Cale, and that she had never been in a group called "Bunny".
'believed that she was Bonnie Tyler, based solely on the fact that she was Welsh' . Hilarious.

The missing text reads:
One would think it would be easy enough to verify the existence of a band with a chart hit, but I can’t find evidence of any band called Bunny that fits the bill. This story appears to be either a fabrication or incorrect in the pertinent details.
That’s it. Three sentences in total.This girl was furious because I had called her a dyke, and she wasn’t, she was Bonnie Tyler. She had a band called Bunny who had a hit in the charts. Cindy had introduced me to her as somebody in the music business who was Welsh, for chrissake.

The entire book is like that. His grasp of details can be maddening, but Sterling and Lou were no better in that department.This story appears to be either a fabrication or incorrect in the pertinent details.
