Vanity is a House act. Their sound grew out of Charlene, Prince and Diana Ross. Those roots explain a lot about how Vanity arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as The Time, Jesse Johnson, Teena Marie, Mary Jane Girls and Pebbles, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Adam Ant, Dweezil Zappa and Billy Idol, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 33 connections around Vanity, reaching back through Charlene and forward to Adam Ant.
