I KEEP TURN' AROUND
Fallen Angel
is the twelfth
studio album
by English rock band
released in
September 1978
by Bronze Records
in the UK
and
Chrysalis Records
in the US.
It is the last album
to feature
John Lawton
on vocals,
before his firing
in 1979.
Fallen Angel
only reached No. 186
on the
Billboard 200,
but in Germany,
the band were at the height
of their popularity.
On this album,
the band moved toward
an AOR sound,
as opposed to
the progressive rock
of previous albums.
The album was remastered
and reissued by
Castle Communications
in 1997
with bonus tracks,
and again in 2004
in an expanded deluxe edition.
Artwork
The album was originally released
in a gatefold sleeve,
opening vertically
rather than the
customary horizontal axis.
The lyrics were printed
on the LP liner.
The artwork
was licensed from artist
Chris Achilleos.
Achilleos's website
lists the original artwork
as missing.
The same artist
designed the cover
for the
Whitesnake album
Lovehunter
a year later.
