"Angel Pavement never got to release those fabulous songs during their short lifespan. They were eventually compiled on two records, one released on vinyl in 2003, the other one on CD two years later (including bonus tracks).
This is the vinyl version and it is plentiful (15 tracks) and luxurious seeing that the music is 'pop harmony at its best', as said in a liner note.
Indeed, Angel Pavement calls to mind The Left Banke on such baroque, grandiose moments as 'Baby You've Gotta Stay' or 'Man in the Shop on the Corner' but also The Zombies, The Kinks or Badfinger.
Strangely enough, the title of either compilation is 'Maybe Tomorrow', after The Iveys' song which was magnificently covered by Angel Pavement and is of course featured on both compilations.
It may be argued that their version of Tom Evans' song is better than the original, which speaks volume about the talent of this long-forgotten band."
Happy New Year my friends!
enjoyed all that. Remember the music well. Still got the vynil.

What a beautiful song! The harmonies are as good as any around at that time, and better than many. I want to hear more of Angel Pavement, I can't believe they didn't get more airplay. I'm sure I've heard them on Brian Matthews' in the past?
