People from Bad Homes is an album recorded by The Astronettes. It was belatedly released in 1995, 22 years after it was recorded. The Astronettes were a trio of backing singers recruited by singer David Bowie, debuting at The 1980 Floor Show fan club concert recorded on 18-20 October 1973 at the Marquee Club, London. They consisted of his then girlfriend Ava Cherry, his old schoolfriend Geoffrey MacCormack, under the alias Warren Peace, and Jason Guess, a friend of Cherry's. Bowie attempted to propel the group to fame, shortly afterwards taking them to London's Olympic Studios to record an album with himself as producer. The sessions were eventually abandoned as Bowie's own album, Diamond Dogs, took up more of his time. The masters remained in the possession of Tony DeFries, then manager of both Bowie and the Astronettes, while the group became backing singers on Bowie's subsequent American tour, and the album Young Americans.
