4 out of 5 stars I Was a Teenage Rock City Angel.......2006-08-15

I first got a bootleg tape from my friend Andy . At the time I was just getting my feet wet in heavy metal . In 1984 in South Florida we did not have a voice all we had was Skynrd and well Miami Vice Driven music. The Rock City Angels came out of the early 80's punk movement and brougt the Kaos of punk to Glam Rock and set the bar for all to come. Teenage Lipstick Boys was like a battle cry for all of kids wearing our mothers make up and keeping Aqua Net in business.Dark Angels still had the punk drone to it. The stand out song on the is for me the cover of LA Woman . As for Johnny Depp he sadly never played on this album . Davy Gregg aka Davy Lightning was the axe on this record that stood out. Gigs at Godmothers and The Jockey Pub would often start with a high not but must often end in disater!. This band was the single biggest influence in my music career which shows because I am 35 and still not signed! If you love the New York Dolls and The Dead Boys ....Go buy their F**KING Albums.. This is nothing like you have ever or will hear!!

5 out of 5 stars Rock City Angels...still Rockin........2006-07-04

For fans of Rock City Angels, this is a little different than the one album everyone remembers.
this is the punk rock version of the band before geffen records decided they needed a change.
i am a Big fan of the Young Man Blues, but this is raw and raunchy, the way rock was meant to be !!!
An absolute delight for true rock fans of the old style of in your face rock-n-roll..
definitely worth the buy..

The Rock City Angels got their start in S. Fla in the 80's then moved to LA where they were eventually signed by Geffen Records. This CD is very different from "The Young Man's Blues" lp released by Geffen. This CD reflects who the Angels were in the S. Fla days - and they were very exciting. For more information about the S. Fla version(s) of THe Rock City Angel, visit http://www.goldcoastlive.com The band was featured on the cover, interviewed, reviewed so on and so forth. A good chunk of their history is documented here.

5 out of 5 stars get the musicians on the cd right.......2003-07-14

the rock city angels like most bands forgot were they came from and who played on the actual studio tracks. this cd was originally recorded at prisma studios ft. lauderdale fla.june of 1984. a fine drummer named dirty dave johns recorded all the drum tracks (i6) in all, and a hell of a guitar player named taggart reid tracked the recording like there was no tomorrow. after the fact ,the 2 founding members did what most artists do, pack up and get the songs heard by the industry. i know when you listen to this cd, you will get your moneys worth. its so on the money , energetic and straight forward balls to the wall rock n roll. it is a master piece in glam punk history. johnny thunders and the dolls would be proud. again dirty dave johns did his dirty deeds done dirt cheap. thanx and enjoy......

4 out of 5 stars Rock City Angels.......2003-01-16

Ok this album was intended to be released before their debut "young mans blues". I loved YMB, so was thrilled to see this CD finally out. It's musically different, but still rocks.
If you like the New York Dolls, you'll love this CD. It could be a dolls release. I havn't heard a band sound so much like a single influence since Rhinobucket released thier AC/DC influenced debut. Bobby Durango sounds just like David Johannson, and they even do a Johnny Thunders cover.
If you like raw sleazy rock check in out.
