Blue Angel was the name of the
band (and its first
album) featuring a pre-fame
Cyndi Lauper. The band was popular on the
New York rockabilly scene, and they did typical late
1970's style cover versions of pop standards (most notably a rendition of
Mann/Veil's "I'm Gonna Be Strong," which Lauper would later re-recored as a solo artist.) The band's
album did moderately well, and helped to launch lead singer Lauper into superstardom.
