I found an old calendar of bands I booked at a club called City Gardens / Trenton NJ USA - Helen Wheels is on the calendar and it say "The Triumphant Return Of Helen Wheels" on 24 April 1981.

I do remember booking her 2-3 times. One of her 7" singles was on GO-GO Records out of Philadelphia.

Check out this url - scroll down to see photo of me with Marc Stevens, and Helen Wheels in the middle:

The event was Marc Steven's Vampire Party, starring Helen Wheels live in concert at the Underground, 860 Broadway, New York City, on September 28, 1983.

I know this full Cellsum Showcase gig was available as a torrent a whole back, so if anybody downloaded that and knows what that 4th Helen song was called, please let me know.

The song was called "The Truth..."

I was honored to warm up for the Brain Surgeons, Joe and Albert Bouchard and Andy and Billy Hilfiger for this gig. Helen Wheels was in my band WORK, and I debuted my original song "The Truth", about my civilian and military experience with UFOS.

At the end of our set, Joe asked me if I wrote it. Yes. He said that it was a hit. I responded "You have platinum albums. I am honored to hear that."

My first international single release, "Saucers Over Tokyo" will be available on Amazon, iTunes, etc soon.

Helen Wheels sort of "commandered" the song and ad-libbed to my dismay. Also changed Scully and Muldar to Hopkins and Robbins, to honor Budd Hopkins and Peter Robbins. I owe a lot to both, but I wanted everyone to relate and X Files were huge.

She also started rapping about her story, etc. The drummer played the 4 click at about double tempo so that the song is rushed. This was the 1st time I had debuted it.

It is a milestone to me regardless of "warts and all ". Sometimes rock ain't pretty!

The WORK line-up was G*Man (me), Guitar and Vocals, Paul Liberman, Drums, "Murph"* Murphey, Bass, Chris ?*, Lead Guitar.

The gig we did with Helen was the only one with us. After that, the guitarist from Static Cling was a rabid fan of Helen's and they asked her to sing.
