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 love what Punky had to say about these people who start out playing guitar and they play as if they're only trying to impress you. They're not playing from the heart.
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.
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.
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.
Fabulous interview with Punky Meadows. He has always understood how to look and act like a star onstage - the best makeup, hair and clothes! Yet he is so down to earth and honest. He looks great.
Punky deserves respect. He has a humble attitude, was able to make fun of himself and be a good sport back in the days of "Punky's Whips". Great player on top of that!
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.
I was a kid wen i got My first Ángel album i'm 52 i must being around 10 years old .ir was the live album i listen to ir on the dark late at night un litle Town in México dreaming of a live concert,it was magical!!!
I was a kid and had White Hot....played it and Broken Heart by the BABYS late in the dark....I just saw Angel in 2019 and met Punky and Frank! Dream Come True!
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.
Punky has such a beautiful shiny hairdo, and the angle at which he's recorded in this interview emphasizes the pooched-out succulence of his insolent pouting rictus, the sight of which drives us helpless viewers mad with desire!
Just saw Angel play in Carteret, NJ. What a fun show! Punky's poster was on my bedroom wall in Colonia, NJ, growing up. Angel opened for Ace Frehley's band.
Saw them when they had "the pods" like in spinal tap only they worked. Guessing that's where spinal tap got that idea. Molly Hatchet opened for them on their first tour, it was a great show when America was still great.
March 17, 1978. Saw them at The Tower in Upper Darby, PA. Hawkwind and The Godz opened up for Angel. Angel was amazing! One of the best shows I've seen. Punky was one of my biggest guitar heroes for years!
I didn't get to see them early on, I was young enough my parents wouldn't let me go to concerts yet. However I am going to see them next March for the first time, and even though it not all the originals, I do get to see Punky & Frank. 😁
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.
i love listening to Punky Meadows. He can cover a lot of things in mere seconds. No awkward pauses, just head-on telling his stories. And a cool guy too. (And he still got that hairstyle from his Cherry People days).
"Fallen Angel" has a great lineup. These gentlemen can rock with the best of them. It just goes to show that age doesn't have anything to do with creativity. Keep on rocking.
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.
Was hoping he would mention the English Setters. Love Angel. Saw them 5 times in the 70’s. Met Punky, Frank, Mickey & Greg at one point. All down to earth guys….. Down to Earth as it is in Heaven…..
@@georgebowen3925 Wow! Seriously? That’s cool. In the “it’s a small world” category, I worked with Larry Shawn Gray at a design firm in NYC in the late ‘90s. Larry was the bass player for the English Setters. He is great guy too and an excellent artist. We collaborated on several pro and collegiate sports logos.
That was AWESOME!!!! HE LOOKS GREAT!!!! I immediately thought he was Egyptian because he looks like one of my Egyptian belly dance teachers who was in Egyptian films because he was so handsome, but he could dance and he danced very well. Punky still has THAT HAIR!! Very nice!!! He ripped on that guitar, man!!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🌸🤟!!!!!
I use to drive through Oakton, Virginia back and forth to work. Many times I would see this tall, skinny-legged guy with his helmet haircut sitting outside a tanning salon, in the afternoon, early evening, while I was sitting in traffic, waiting on the traffic light. I told myself there must be a story about this guy, with that haircut. Later, I picked up a copy of Washington, D.C.’s City Paper, and there was the story of the missing musician/guitarist of Angel fame, Punky Meadows who had literally disappeared from the scene. Even Frank Zappa had a song about Punky. He was the owner of that tanning salon, and possibly other businesses for decades. Happy he has had a resurgence these last few years, doing what he loves.
@@Howrad33 LOL...IM OLD ENOUGH TO REMEMBER.....THIS.....FRANK ZAPPA ONCE SAID PUNKY WAS THE BEAUTIFULEST MAN ON THE PLANET......YEAP THERES SOME PERKS TO BEING AN OLD ROCK AND ROLLER..FACT....AMEN 🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🥁🥁🥁🥁

I never knew that the headlining bands would make the backup bands play under certain rules. Angel should be proud of what they accomplished. I always thought Punky was a handsome, intelligent and very motivated musician. No need for any cosmetic enhancement.
@@hellin69 I always wondered if black was his natural hair color. He's always had exotic looks. I was a little young in the 70s to get into their music but I liked Punky. Now as an adult I notice Frank DiMino looks good. He's aged very well too.
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
Fuck Yeah! Punky is a great songwriter and a tasteful player. His work in his recent solo album "Fallen Angel" and "Risen" with the resurrected Angel are a much needed breath of fresh air in this era of auto-tuned crap.
i was intrudeced at 15..i saw them with Mothers Finest and Frank Marinos Mahogany Rush and a band that didnt show Black Oak Arkasas..in Little Rock!!!!! James Dandy had issues!
Got to meet Punky, dang really nice guy! Angel was and still is a Kick Butt band, shame that Casablanca did not promote them more. Punky Meadows!! Great Rock Star Name! Thanks Punky your cool Man
I wished Punky would spoke a little about The English Settles and the first name of our band was called The Instruders. Also the first club in New York as The English Setters, we played at The Night Owl in the Village and I should know I was the bands first drummer from the formation of the band when we first played at our Hart Junior High Talent Show Festival.
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!
Loved the CAP CENTER...seen many shows there ( R.I.P.) Never got to see ANGEL back in the day...but had all their LPs...loved me sum ANGEL ( WHITE HOT )...still do... PUNKY IS A LEGEND!!! 👍🤘👍🤘🤘🤘👍🤘👍🤘👍🤘....also THE BAYOU!!!

Angel was a truly incredible live band with quite a show! Cool interview with Mr.Meadows who is a criminally underrated guitarist.
AGREED

I saw them at the tomorrow club in youngstown OH. they were awesome.
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 them there too.. it was an incredible show for sure!
I prefer the last two albums from their prime, SINFUL and WHITE HOT.
I saw em in 77 and 78 in St Louis MO. Best shows ever.

First 3 LPs are very good.
They got a little too power pop after that . By Sinful I was not into the new direction. Great Live band!!
I’ve known Punky my whole life, he lived in our neighborhood and was best friends with my uncle. Saw him live many times. 🙂
Punky deserves respect. He has a humble attitude, was able to make fun of himself and be a good sport back in the days of "Punky's Whips". Great player on top of that!
People will never really know just how great they were unless they've seen them Live ! Absolutely the best Live band EVER !
I saw them live.
He’s more fluent than Jeff Beck
Lost my hair in the 90's, I want me one them there Punky wig's!
it's obviously a gorgeous Wig, yeah. Hey.... good for him. He's just trying to still look 'Hot'.
I really enjoyed these stories!!! Great fun and crazy memories. Life!

I interviewed Punky when Angel played at the Riverside Theater in Milwaukee back in '78. Great show and great visuals!

I saw them about the same time(1979 i think) opening up for Styx in Abilene Texas.My first concert ever.Punky was tearin it up!
I love Frank Zappa’s take on Punky. Immortalized him, more so.
Frank Zappa and Terry Bozio totally ridiculed him
@@williammitchell1785 where are they now lol
@@robertmiller967Zappa’s dead and Bozio is still an acclaimed drummer,
Oh Punky.
I can't NOT think of Frank Zappa watching this video LOL! Apparently Punky was a good sport about it.
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.
Great guitar player and one cool dude!
ON EARTH AS IT IS IN HEAVEN
Without men wearing makeup.
Punky has such a beautiful shiny hairdo, and the angle at which he's recorded in this interview emphasizes the pooched-out succulence of his insolent pouting rictus, the sight of which drives us helpless viewers mad with desire!
I can’t stand the way he pouts…cause he might not be pouting for me
That's some funny stuff right there you just made me spit out my coffee
I thought it was Bruce Jenner at first ….
he looks like a plastic ken doll.
I'm no helpless viewer. To me that's a senior wearing lip gloss and a wig. Nothing sexy about it.
Just saw Angel play in Carteret, NJ. What a fun show! Punky's poster was on my bedroom wall in Colonia, NJ, growing up. Angel opened for Ace Frehley's band.
One of the greats !!!
Great interview.
Sat in the eighth row in front of Punky on the Sinful tour. Incredible!
I remember the band Angel in the 1970s one of the first bands that I recognized
My first real concert was Aerosmith at MSG 1976. Changed my life forever……
What a terrific interview!
more like TERRIFYING
Great interview
Watched and liked it alot. Fantastic guitarist
got to see them twice back in the day one of the best shows ever!

So impressive, down to earth, what a hard worker. I never saw such an in depth interview with him before.
Met Punky at a WAWA ...He was so laid back and cool.
Great interview Punky...
Has anyone ever noticed if you turn the albums like 'White Hot' upside down, it says "ANGEL" again? Whoever came up with that design is pretty clever!
this logo alone back in 79 was why i became a graphic designer.
It was designed by a fan who showed it them after the show and they bought it.
@@apollozeroThat dude must have been trippin to come up with that. It is really cool though and not like it's just a mirror image...

GREAT player! Very cool band! Is there any video of them online live in the 70's??
Such a beautiful shiny wig
Damn those lips 🥰
Thank You!!! I had to pawn my “ on earth as in heaven album “ !! Love that you brought back memories of angels great music!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Saw Angel 1978 Boston Orpheum Theater-best concert and show ever
Buxx played at my high school. I remember Punky well. I always loved the Angel logo; that it read the same right side and upside down.
Yes! I still show people this! 😁
Great interview. Love Angle.

Ok most underrated band
I recall seeing their LPs in K-mart in the 70s. They looked so cool.
Punky was one of the most underrated guitar players of all time. Angel were my Beatles.
He must have the same plastic surgeon as Mickey Rourke.
He's wearing a wig too

caught Angel live in Buffalo - bought the album the next day
The Tower, great song🎶🎸
The interviewer had an easy gig here! Can imagine him scoring off his question list as the time went by😂😅
a lot of work to look this good at 70yrs old in this interview. not a lot of original parts left.
Punky just talked for 15 minutes straight...
What was the question?
There were 2, actually...who's your plastic surgeon and who's your hairdresser.
Got to see Angel in 1976. Double bonus show, Robin Trower opened for them. Yeah, I'm an old geezer now.
Trower opened?
@@1099Kramo At the time I never heard of Angel. I went to see Trower.
@@1099Kramo Ahh, my bad. Let me rephrase that. I actually still have my ticket stub from that show. Angel opened for Trower. 9-4-1976.
Good God!!! I don't ever want to live on a planet where Robin Trower opens for Angel, and I'm pretty positive Angel wouldn't want that either!!😮🤢🤣🤣
Was it in Rochester,N.Y.?
Great job punky !!!!!!
that dude can shred & the interview was great
OMG! I knew about her love for Jeni’s Ice Cream, but I hadn’t a clue that she played guitar. Nanci Pelosi, you go girl!
I saw them in concert in the 70s. I had front row seats the orchestra pit. I was literally so close to him I could smell his cologne. Great band
I always wanted to know if Mick Ronson was an influence. Punky's guitar bends are allot like between Brian May and Mick Ronson.
i was intrudeced at 15..i saw them with Mothers Finest and Frank Marinos Mahogany Rush and a band that didnt show Black Oak Arkasas..in Little Rock!!!!!
James Dandy had issues!
Black Oak Arkansas didn't show up in Little Rock, that is pure gold
