Black Angel ..

​ Black Angel will be releasing the O' Los Angeles album, the 4th and last in the O' series of albums (O' California and O' Santa Barbara 2007; and  O' San Francisco 2010).  We also released "Pleasuredome" last year; Real Music For Real People in 2003; and 13 Stories in 2003.

I am attaching the first and third songs from the new CD for free downloads.

The Urge was a song written for Audrey (Mrs. Ike) Turner when she was in Black Angel.  We never recorded it with Audrey but did with the Black Angel Girls on the album 13 Stories.  This is the first time that I sang on the song that I wrote.

The song, Go For It was recorded from midnight to 8:00 a.m. at a cheap recording studio in Hollywood.  It featured a duet with the fabulous former back-up singers for Aretha Franklin and Stevie Wonder, Mickey Morris and Denise Patterson.  New York video producer, Michael Merola, played a great lead on this song.

If you are a radio station and you would like a free copy of the new "O' Los Angeles" album shipped to you, email us your mailing address and we will send one.
