ABOUT THE RECORD Blue Angel was a retro-rockabilly band that featured Cyndi Lauper before her rise to fame as a solo singer. Their only album, the self-titled Blue Angel, featured a sparse punk-rock and New Wave-styled cover in primary red and floating band member photos. The sales for the album were more successful overseas than in America. The only track to achieve high chart status was I'm Gonna Be Strong ( a cover of the Mann/Weil pop standard. Lauper covered again in a 1994 album), which reached No. 37 in the Netherlands. Another song from the album, Maybe He'll Know, was rerecorded by Lauper on her second solo album, True Colors, in 1986. Lauper and John Turi wrote the bulk of their material. Blue Angel was briefly popular on the New York club scene. In 1980 Blue Angel recorded a second album for Polydor that was never released due to a change in management. The band continued to gig around New York until 1982, their final concert was held at Studio 54. In 1984, after Lauper's solo success, Blue Angel was re-released, this time with a yellow cover. The band reformed without Lauper in 1987 under the name "Boppin' the Blues." Lauper joined them on stage for a one-time performance at New York's Lone Star Cafe.
