In a previous paper a semi-microscopic core-particle coupling method that includes the conventional strong coupling core-particle model as a limiting case, was applied to spectra and electromagnetic properties of several well-deformed odd nuclei. This work, coupled a large single-particle space to the ground state bands of the neighboring even cores. In this paper, we generalize the theory to include excited bands of the cores, such as beta and gamma bands, and thereby show that the resulting theory can account for the location and structure of all bands up to about 1.5 MeV.
