BLUE ANGEL

The new millenium sadly has not brought much new in the way of Strawbs material. Never mind because their contribution over the years has been quite a humbling experience. Blue Angel has the remake of Cousin's classic from his solo Two Weeks Last Summer of the early 70's. It is not a bad version but not nearly as good as the original. The album seems to be pieced together from Cousin's collaboration with Brian Willoghby on The Bridge. It therefore has a few remakes of songs already well and truly established with some new material also. Nothing dynamic except the cover.
