Angelo & Eighteen –Midnight Flight/ Flight 2 –RAK 137 (1972 UK)
Originally sought after for the B side as it was one of those “secret” DJ plays around 5-6 years ago, the A side has been unjustly totally overlooked. Midnight Flight is a cracking little number: All pop with style featuring a strong chorus, nifty guitar and class singing. The track then ends with hints of what will appear on its B side. The most striking thing about Flight 2 is that it is totally incongruous with 1972 and It somehow ends up sounding like mid 90s Prodigy! Again I have no info on Angelo & Eighteen. I have heard a rumour that there may be some Canadian connection, but this is yet to be confirmed...
Note: Flight 2 has recently been comped by Bob Stanley on an Ace CD http://www.acerecords.co.uk/content.php?page_id=59&release=8358

Thanks Steve
But how did they hook up with Mr Most? See you next week!
So it looks they actually were also the famous French Revolution on Decca UK. Angelo Finaldi is on MySpace http://www.myspace.com/angelofinaldi2
and it says he worked with Nanette Workman, who I think did some recordings in England too...
Angelo Finaldi and Richard Tate (both of La Révolution Française) were in Ibiza around this time. Angelo auditionned for Led Zep, as a second guitarist maybe for their live sets. That's how he met Most.
