American model and singer known for her 1974 Playboy centerfold and music including the Covers Girl EP (1981).

Featured in a November 1974 Playboy centerfold (mentioned in the review). The Covers Girl EP (1981) was produced by Ric Ocasek and Rick Derringer and collects covers including "My Little Red Book", "The Wild One, Forever", "Little Black Egg" and "Funtime" (details from the review). She is the mother of actress Liv Tyler (publicly verifiable). A Hozac reissue of some of her work is mentioned in the review.

The available review focuses on the Covers Girl EP (1981), a collection of covers produced by Ric Ocasek and Rick Derringer. The reviewer places Buell in the 1970s/early-80s music scene and recalls her 1974 Playboy centerfold. The record is described as eclectic pop/rock rather than punk. The review recommends both the record and a related book.

For:Fans of vintage pop/rock, collectors of reissues, readers interested in 1970s music culture.

 It’s called “Cover Girls,” an EP released in 1981 with production by Ric Ocasek and Rick Derringer, four tracks, all covers – that “My Little Red Book” which I’m not sure if it’s more Burt Bacarach or Love, “The Wild One, Forever” from Tom Petty’s debut, “Little Black Egg” by the garage stalwarts Nightcrawlers, and “Funtime” by the moronic Pop&Bowie, to say the girl has excellent and eclectic taste – no punk in sight, just more or less danceable pop that, on first listen, I say meh, on the second, it’s not bad after all, on the third, definitely pleasant, also because if there’s no trace of punk, there’s none of all that plastic that would, in a few years, smother pop and drown every trace of imagination.
