The Angels To Celebrate 40 Years Since No Exit Live

by Paul Cashmere on February 8, 2019

in News

As 2019 marks the 40th anniversary of the release of The Angels ‘No Exit’ album and the band will play the entire album live to celebrate the occasion.

‘No Exit’ was the third album for The Angels. It featured the now classic ‘Shadow Boxer’.

‘No Exit’ was released in June 1979 and the tour kicks off almost 40 years to the day. “Writing many of the songs – Save Me, No Exit, Waiting For The World, Skid Row, and Dawn Is Breaking – with Rick in Studio Three, using the drum loop of George Young’s drums, and turning the speed up or down to suit the new idea [was great],” John Brewster says. “George Young singing the word ‘baby’ on Out Of The Blue… he could make a difference with just one word or note. The recording sessions with the band were amazing and exciting!”

“We will be doing two sets over the whole evening, the first set will be the No Exit album in its entirety and the second set is a mix of classic Angels songs and a few rarities,” says John. “The albums we have made over the years take the audience on a journey, sequence was always important. No Exit takes us on a journey as well, just like the Face To Face album, when we play that same sequence. The second set gives us a chance to explore another journey.”

For fans of Queen, John Deacon has long been the enigma of the band, a brilliant musician, masterful songwriter, and humble presence behind the scenes. Since the early 1990s, Deacon has shunned the spotlight, retiring quietly after Freddie Mercury’s death in 1991. But now, years later, he has quietly resurfaced, lending his signature alongside bandmates Roger Taylor and Brian May on a charity auction item, signalling, perhaps, that even the most private of souls can still make their mark in unexpected ways.
