Is it December already? Happy holidays, Bionic friends! Here’s Angel, who I featured on the site almost a decade back. In addition to a video of “The Winter Song,” this time, we’ve also got an ad that appeared in the November 19, 1977 issue of Record World.

Here’s what I said years back:

Androgynous glam rock band Angel were discovered by Gene Simmons of Kiss and signed to the Casablanca label in 1975. Angel dressed in white, featured a keyboard-laden sound and weren’t afraid to look pretty while rocking out.

The group never really cracked the big time but they did appear in the Jodie Foster flick Foxes and they scratched the top 50 with a cover of The Young Rascals’ “Ain’t Gonna Eat Out My Heart Anymore.”

The song I’ve got for you today is in the holiday spirit and will likely blow your mind. At least a little bit. Here’s Angel with “The Winter Song” which appeared on the band’s 1978 L.P. White Hot.

“There’s a feeling in the air. Feel the spirit everywhere…”
