    Punky.....Seattle 1979
    Paramount theater....best concert I've ever seen....I still listen to the 1st 3 Angel albums quite often.
    Angel still remains one of my top 10 rock groups. Thank you.

      I saw Angel warm up for Styx. It blew our minds when they did the “magic show” appearance on stage. The music started and stage hands brought out cube boxes and stacked them up. Than the band just walked out of these stacks. To top that! The angel face up behind the stage became animated. Holy Crap! And even better.. their music is incredible.

    Angel is one of the most under rated bands. They had such an original and great sound on their albums. Punky has licks that I've never heard any other guitarists do. He has a style all his own. Barry Brandt was my second drum hero when I was around 12. First was Peter Criss, only because Kiss was the first rock band I ever heard at my age back then. But when I learned of Angel and got to see them in concert in '79, it was awesome. As a musician today still, at 60 years old, I still site Angel as a big influence on me. I often reference their earlier albums for songs I compose.

  • @ReneAlexisPenalozaMunoz

    I read somewhere that Punky was offered a gig on both Kiss and Aerosmith and he turnned them both down. That shows his integrity and belief on his own stuff. He is an underrated player in my opinion.

    Always loved Angel. Got a chance to see Punky perform with his new band at B.B. Kings a few years ago (with other early Angel member Felix Robinson who played a few tunes on bass, and also on bass, Randy Gregg). It was incredible. Punky is not only an amazing talent, but has the sharp stage moves too; really puts on the rock show. Hearing/seeing "Tower" live, it was like, "I can't believe what I just saw!" Wish I saw Angel back in the day, but this B.B. Kings gig was super cool. After the show Punky and Felix were nice to take photos with my husband and I. Great interview, thanks Rock Scene.

      I was fortunate enough to see Angel back in the day when, as Punky mentioned in this interview, they opened up for Styx, at the Veterans Memorial Coliseum in Phoenix, Arizona. This was in December 1979 when Styx were on tour supporting their "Cornerstone" album and Angel were supporting their "Sinful" album. Although I thought for the longest time that it was the year before in 1978 when Styx were supporting their "Pieces Of Eight" album and Angel were supporting their "White Hot" album. Either way, both bands were awesome that night.

    This is the first time I've ever heard a Punky Meadows interview. He was very candid and sounded really down to earth. I always thought his guitar solos were done very tastefully. From the interview, it sounds like they really started from the bottom and worked their way up. Way to go Punky. The guy is really a survivor from that era.

    I just purchased "Fallen Angel" on CD last week. I would have got it sooner but I didn't know about it until I listened to this interview. It's one of the best rock albums I have ever heard. No bulkshit. The writing is solid. The group is tight. Punky's guitar work is beautiful and melodic. The photography inside the CD booklet is amazing--great pictures of Punky when he was coming up. A true rocker from early on. I will be enjoying this album for many years to come. The beginning brings me right back to the opening of an Angel concert 40 years ago. Great work. This album blows away anything Punky would have done with KISS in my opinion.

    Wow. That was very informative and very telling. It answered my question all these years why Angel wasn't bigger? It was because they were as good if not better than the headliner bands that they opened for. I remember back in the day the same thing happened to Frank Marino & Mahogany Rush. I believe it was Aerosmith at the Texas Jam that was very pissed-off that night that they had to follow Mahogany Rush who absolutely killed it! I give much kudos to bands like Blue Oyster Cult & Ted Nugent for keeping them on. BRAVO.

    No disrespect to this cat, whom I have never even heard of. But honest to God, when I first saw the thumbnail, I wasn’t sure if I was looking at *Katey Sagal’s* twin sister or a guy.

    Why do so many people hate this guy? I'm not an Angel fan. I just liked the opening guitar riff to The Tower. It's a great musical hook .
    So many anonymous posts take a shot at a harmless guy who has lived his life more or less on his terms and who likes to tell his story to anyone interested to listen. Why is everyone so miserable? It's pathetic. Would it really kill you'll to be kind for one minute? Damn. If you think your nasty little posts are harmless, well, you know better, don't you?

    I saw Angel about 5 times. Yeah, all those other bands should've been afraid..very afraid. They were better than all those bands that they opened for. Thank goodness I always saw them as headliners.

    The Punky I knew was not botoxed up and without hair transplants. The late 70s - early 80s, I knew his brother Timmy who played in bands Deuce and Tension....hung out at their place in Wheaton MD.
    Capital Centre, my old stomping grounds. Worked there for 4 years, Union Job.

      I met him in 2019 and saw Angel and Starz....his hair looked real just dyed black....he always had thick hair and tons of girls and groupies....he had his hotel room blocked by 9 girls wait ing in front of it! Oh the stories he told us at the meet n greet last year! AMAZING story teller and he has a photographic memory! They rocked in 2019! He played like a creator of the instrument! Frank sounds like a fine tuned siren at 69!

    In around 1978 Angel filmed a free concert in Cleveland, asked the fans attending to wear white shirts.
    That concert film was never released....anybody know anything more about it?

      The footage is lost for real It was going to be called " Angel At Midnight" Greg Guiffria looked high and low for it years ago He figured it probably was thrown out maybe when Casablanca went under Perhaps it's in some vault - might pop up one day More than just one show was filmed They filmed in 77 with Mickey still in the band and just told the cameramen to avoid him cuz they knew they were ready to kick him out - at leadt that's what i read/heard somewhere
