[edit]Origins
The Cover Girls began its musical career in the late 1980s at a time when other American and British girl groups such as Exposé, Bananarama, Seduction, Sweet Sensation, and Company B were scoring hit singles on the pop and dance charts. The group was formed by music promoter and dance club owner Sal Abbatiello[1] and was originally composed of singers Angel Sabater, Caroline Jackson, and Sunshine Wright. The increased popularity of freestyle music, a Latin-influenced form of electronic dance music, played an influential role in the style of the group's initial recordings.

The Cover Girls released their first album, Show Me, in late 1987. Five singles were released from this album, including the Top 40 Billboard Hot 100 hits "Because of You" and "Promise Me". The title track of the album was released as a 12-inch single prior to the album's release and was a Top-5 hit on the US dance chart. The group's second album, We Can't Go Wrong, was released in 1989 and included the song "My Heart Skips a Beat" (pop Top-40, dance Top-5) as well as the title track, which was the group's first Top-10 pop hit in early 1990, peaking at #8. The single "Don't Stop Now"[2] was released in 1991. This was Evelyn Escalera's first recording with the group. The group's third studio album, Here It Is, released in 1992, produced the group's most recent pop hit, a cover version of the Rose Royce 1978 song "Wishing on a Star", with new co-lead singer Michelle Valentine. The Cover Girls' version of this song became its second Top-10 pop hit when it peaked at #9 in the summer of 1992. The song also reached the Top 40 of the UK Singles Chart that same year
