my- instinct: says- this isn't 1979. (please- elaborate.)

a 'grooves'-magazine article (without- photos)- mentions a neil-bogart house-party (early, 1978): where- gene met cher. several- music-artists (like- marilyn mccoo & billy davis): were- there; and gene- asked cher: to appear- on his solo-album. she- consented. (not long- after: they- were dating; where- most of the unmasked-photos (of- them): come- from.)
