1994 - Released their debut in 1978, produced by Jack Douglas of Cheap Trick & Aerosmith fame. A mighty release it is aswell. Karen Lawrence was the vocalist , who you may have heard of. Soundwise think Storm (Jeanette Chase's version), Heart with a more hard rock sound - Excellent all round. Brad Whitford of Aerosmith also guests on the album. This is the first issue on CD on Rock Candy & if Female fronted stuff is your thing, then is definately worth picking up.

Hi Jez just a quick note ... dunno if you've got the CD yet (expect you will getting it though) but there's a tantalising note on the sleeve notes suggesting that the second album Please Stand By... may be in the pipeline for release too!!! :):):)

Yep - got it last week. Hopefully we will get the 2nd one - sounds like it might see the light of day. Rock Candy really are turning into the Master Re-issue label, what with the 2 Storm albums, Coney Hatch - Outa Hand, and a couple of Johnny Van Zant Band albums -hopefully those will be the debut & Round Two which are both fab albums. Here's hoping.

Franz Ferdinand. Have never understood how anyone can rate this band at all. Now I am pretty wide ranging in my musical tastes, but this band are probably one of the worst bands I have ever heard in my lifetime. Have heard both albums quite alot from the lads playing them at work and can honestly say I haven't heard a remotely decent song anywhere to be found. Not criticising your liking as you may say that about some of the stuff I listen to, just making a personal observation!!!Bloody Awful.

I found the Midnight Angel with the Addiction cd, this is a whole different group, late 80's, female lead singer. I'm sure there must have been a lot of groups with that name. I try to collect any local Jersey/Philly groups from the 80's early 90's, I will have to print the local list I have someday. Thanks for the help.

    • I grew up listening to Cuntry, and have kinda wanted to get back into it. But not the typical New Cuntry shit. So I'll give this a try. 
    • I always forget about this band, and then I listen to them and am like, "Oh, yeah, they're good!" And then forget about them for another year. 
    • I was a pretty big fan. Nature Of The Beast is a killer song. Saw them with Dave Gleeson from the Screaming Jets singing and he did an amazing job, but pretty sure they have a new singer now  I recently went through the two most recent albums before this one and there were a couple of ok tracks, but mostly mid. Fun fact: I saw the Angels a couple of years before Doc died at the Middle hotel in Ferntree Gully and they seemed to hate each other. Pretty sure Doc said nothing to the crowd all night. Fun fact 2: when they were building the transit bar in Melbourne, a mate and I found a service elevator that went to the roof, which was under construction. After peeing off the roof, which is always fun, we realised that we could clearly hear the music 5 or 6 floors below from a DJ I think. He was playing Am I Ever Gonna See Your Face Again. We started yelling down the No Way Get Fucked, Fuck Off bit thinking we were hilarious. Then soon we noticed people looking up, and for some reason they seemed to be clearly hearing us. Another mate then called us to tell us security were on the way up the stairs so we took the service elevator down and managed to laugh it off. Stoopid drunk story I guess, but fun days.
    • Cheeky, getting your artwork in there. I wonder how you did that.  I like the vocal track on #1 and that'd be my pick. I personally don't dig the female versions of songs, because I'm not a female (yet?) and as these are songs written by ourselves I personally feel the best interpretation is an AI dude voice taking the place of your dude voice. 
    • Yeah, that's great but this is obviously an accomplished musician probably completely in control of this output... not done with Suno, I'd bet. There's definitely dudes out there who are perfectly capable of doing their own music, like this dude, but for whatever reason might not be able to put a project together, again, for whatever reason... but this definitely feels a lot more like AI feeling in the missing gaps for someone otherwise in complete control of what he wants.  Either way, it is very cool indeed.  As Darkstone says, I'm not sure paying is the way to get the best results. I'm also not saying it isn't, especially with other platforms that are not Suno. I think already knowing what you're doing, musically, is the best way to get best results, personally. Suno, for example, is just perfect for someone who might enjoy writing lyrics but is not in any way shape or form an accomplished (or even adequate, lol) musician.  But yeah, it's pretty cool for some fun. I'm not sure if you checked out my links above. Keeping them pretty quiet due to lyrical content, lol, but you might dig some of the stuff in my links. 'As the moment passes by' and 'I'll wait for you' are two of my personal faves. Along with 'Faith to fall.'
    • Yeah, musically it's what you want, but vocally... Maybe Alex should take some vocal lessons from Ken Tamplin. ;}
    • Your Eyes - Darkstone (2024) Two versions of my song number 6     https://suno.com/song/e8c1e85b-21ee-4d35-a64b-e786f00944d2   https://suno.com/song/9144c77a-bd7c-49c1-9508-f724d0832fdb
    • Yep, although I was never a massive fan.
    • Yes, celebrating their fifty years. There only two original members left in the band. Dusty might agree with me the Angels died when the original singer passed away.
