Angel is an American glamrockband from Washington D.C.
The band was formed in 1975 with members Punky Meadows (guitar), Mickie Jones (bass), Frank DiMino (vocals), Gregg Giuffria (keyboard) and Barry Brandt (drums). Their first musical attempts took place under the name Sweet Mama from Heaven. After a short while they changed their name to Angel, a tribute to Jimi Hendrix’s song of the same name.
The band played exclusively in white, which was supposed to be a contrast to Kiss. The band members also had an androgynous image, which was a hallmark of glamrock. After a tour the band released the album ’Helluva Band’ (1976) and was voted best newcomer by music magazine Circus. They left Heart and Boston behind. The third album was eventually recorded with Eddie Kramer and released in 1977 under the title ’On Earth as It Is in Heaven’. With this album the band developed from a typical glam rock band to a hard rock band.
In 1978 Angel managed to score at a radio hit in Germany. Their ’Winter song’ reached # 3 of the radio hit parade WDR2 hit rally in January of the year.
