With the just released new, strong ANGEL album, many asked for this Caroline Records extensive, mammoth 7-disc Box Set celebrating the legendary early discography of the Washington DC-bred glam/rock outfit. Entitled “Angel: The Casablanca Years“, the band-approved Box includes all the complete discography with the record label, remastered, plus a bonus disc ‘Rarities’ with songs available for the first time on CD.
