Free Music Notes for Blue Angel
Free Music Review: this album makes you wanna dance with it!
Hit: 4 Stars
Cyndi Lauper's very first Album and i must say she sounds great here. I added the songs to my Ipod and I can't stop dancing to the songs. Free Music Review: Cyndi Lauper's first album ever
Hit: 5 Stars
This album is great.
It sounds powerful even after all these years. Cyndi's voice is AMAZING.
"I'm gonna be strong" and "Everybody's got an angel" are worth the whole album by themselves.
It's rockabilly, so enjoyable.
If you like Cyndi Lauper, you must have this.
Free Music Review: In The Beginning...
Hit: 4 Stars
Blue Angel was of course the first band Cyndi Lauper sang in before prior to going solo. An album she declares sold so much it went 'lead'. She also says the record company told her the 50's rockabilly they were doing was not going to sell and then a year later Stray Cats hit big doing the same thing.
So you can tell where this music is coming from, but it's not really so much rockabilly, as it is a mixture of 80's pop, doo wop 50's style and the Shangri La's 60's. The album was released and done and gone in just a matter of months and our girl ended up bankrupt and all until her 1983 record contract.
But the album is really good - there are versions of "Maybe He'll Know" and "I'm Gonna Be Strong" two songs Cyndi would later re-record on her own albums and the highlights to me, "I Had A Love" and "Fade." Cyndi's vocals are in full form and the band is pretty tight and fun.
Free Music Review: At long last! Issued on CD!!
Hit: 5 Stars
I was lucky enough to catch Blue Angel performing live. They were wonderful. Why did they break up, just when things were going so well? I have heard allusions to problems with management or legal issues? Whatever the reason, such a shame.
I had been bemoaning the fact that my vinyl copy of this was getting pretty worn-out, so I was very happy to see that it had been released on CD, at last!
I still get goosebumps whenever I hear the band go into the "say you'll never, never-never leave me..." part on "Maybe He'll Know" and then come out of it with that incredibly energized unison riff by the ensemble! Amazing stuff!
I'm so glad that someone in the music business saw what great potential Cyndi had and helped to shape her into the huge success that she surely is, but I can't help but think what if Blue Angel had continued...
The five stars are simply for the amazing music on the CD. Truly, a priceless treasure from its time.

My favorites were track 1 & 7. Remember them when I was a teenager in Puerto Rico. Wish I could find the lp. Thanks for the memories
