Yes. Frank was warning us about these things even before they turned trendy - always spot on at the start! Too bad Terry went into a visuals over substance band called Missing Persons a few years after this, but you know the biz.
Angel were seriously one of those Sunset Strip bands, and B movie fans remember them for appearing in the film Foxes when they were going down quick in a cameo appearance (Casablanca helped fund the film, no surprise there). According to some sources, they were also going to be part of the then-new video disc trend as well, but the plans fell through. I would not be surprised that their stage show also helped inspire a moment in This Is Spinal Tap.
