I still have their LIVE vinyl! Yeah, I was a Punky Meadows git fan too.Big Blue Owl wrote:Quiet Riot could be called "Hair Plug Metal."
I'm glad they included Angel. One of the coolest hair bands ever. Punky Meadows was fun onstage. I got to see them several times in the late '70s. I have to break out my old Angel LPs tonight.
You may have noticed their keyboard player, who went on to
"House of Lords" and "Giuffria"....
I think Punky and the rest of 'em dropped off the face of the earth!
Punky's my homeboy though....And Zappa's song "Punky's Whips" is
a dedication.
Don't start none...won't be none.

Actually, Frank Dimino and the band were touring as recently as 2002. Here is a page of pics from a show in Baltimore, MD.

Here is a long lost song called Better Days from 1977. A bit mellow, but a rare Angel gem.

Because the press as of late has gotten incredibly dumbed down and only half does their research.awip2062 wrote:http://new.music.yahoo.com/blogs/listof ... etal-bands

One more bit. I was wrong. They toured in 2004 as well.CygnusX1 wrote:

Legendary '70s rockers ANGEL will be performing at the Dallas Hard Rock Caf? on Saturday, November 13. The show will be presented by "TheBone" 93.3 and Renegade Entertainment.
ANGEL skyrocketed to stardom in the mid '70s as one of the first "metal" bands on the very eclectic music scene of that decade. Powered by soaring notes and thunderous rhythms, unified by a stunning image, a spectacular stage show (rivaled only by past record company labelmates KISS), superb rock songs and arguably the best band logo-type in rock history, ANGEL secured their legacy in rock and roll with hits such as "Tower" and "Don't Leave Me Lonely" and also made a cameo appearance in the Jodi Fost movie "Foxes" with the song "Twentieth Century Foxes". ANGEL is ready to continue their legacy just recently returning from Europe performing at the Bang Your Head Festival in Germany and planning shows across the U.S. through the New Year. Other shows include November 11 at Clicks in Baton Rouge, LA and November 12 at Forgetta'boutit in Houston, TX.
