Long before the coming of the internet, it was to the printed press that one would excitedly look for the latest music news. In the early 80s, Sounds and Kerrang! were unquestionably the go-to sources for music news in the UK, especially when it came to exclusives. And in May 1984, Kerrang! unleashed a peach of a scoop: the return of Angel!
Angel’s keyboard maestro Gregg Giuffria had, Kerrang! revealed, put together a brand new line-up of the group and was in LA’s Cherokee Studios with producer Andy Johns working on demos of such quality that a major deal was all but assured.
