The Angels roared out of the 1970s with multi-platinum albums,
hits and record-breaking tours. The band was formed by the trio
of Rick and John Brewster and Doc Neeson. Songs from their
classic albums are as pertinent today as they were when they were
released, thanks to John and Rick, the genius songwriting team,
who, together with Doc, generated some of the greatest rock ever
produced in this country. During the 2000s the Brewsters and Doc
fell out and legal battles ensued. Eventually they settled
differences and reformed, but Doc was ill and died in 2014. The
Angels have since risen phoenix-like, with Screaming Jets
front-man Dave Gleeson on vocals. With the Brewsters’ twin-guitar
attack in full flight and passion and ambitions reignited, they
are once again at the top of the rock ’n’ roll greasy pole. New
albums, sell-out tours, rock festivals with thousands singing
every song and roaring the infamous chant during the evergreen
"Am I Ever Gonna See Your Face Again". Over the past two years
they’ve regaled long-time associate Bob Yates with the inside
story, warts and all. The result is the definitive book about one
of Australia’s most iconic rock bands.
