Em 1972 Mike Leander, um talentoso musico, compositor e produtor teve a idéia de gravar uma nova música com uma nova sonoridade com seu amigo e artista recém batizado artísticamente de "Gary Glitter". Para os som que ele imaginou, precisava de dois saxofones. Pediu ajuda ao seu amigo John Rossall. Ele trouxe o saxofonista Harvey Ellison. Mike, Gary, John e Harvey tocaram e gravaram então " Rock'n'Roll partes 1 e 2". Quando o single foi lançado, foi direto para o Top 20 alcançando o número 2.
Quatro anos de trabalho duro!Neste mês de maio fizemos quatro anos no ar. Continuamos trabalhando na divulgação deste maravilhoso instrumento, obrigado por participar da nossa história!
Angel Face Recorded by The Glitter Band Requested by Trev
Gerry Shephard played the 'riff' over the first and second lines of each verse. He played slide guitar on this track and probably had his guitar tuned to open 'A'. However I have also heard the song played by The Glitter Band in 'B'.
I suggest using 'power chords' throughout with the guitar tuned to standard tuning.
