Demon Angel contains live performance footage shot on Halloween night, 1984 in Austin, Texas. Roky performs his songs solo on electric and acoustic guitar and in duet with guitarist/producer Mike Alvarez.

One of the most important, influential and yet unheralded singer/songwriters of the last 40yrs!

@zuss10r Period.

Ahhhh, so loaded with feeling, might even be the best version of this track

Roky should have borrowed Joe "King" Carrasco's crown-it would have looked better than the one he's wearing there. However, nothing can detract from the music and the voice-"You're not Buchanan!"

All hail Roky, king of the beasts.

So awesome, thanks so much for the upload.

Chords are E, C/G and D, right? I do think I have a few missing tho

A raw stripped down version of one of Rokys Greatest songs. I think this was the early 80's. I doubt he'll play this at Johnny Brenda's this November but one can hope.
