Blue Angel featuring Cyndi Lauper - I’m Gonna Be Strong • TopPop

Blue Angel were a retro-rockabilly band that featured Cyndi Lauper before her rise to fame as a solo singer. The lineup also included John Turi on keyboards and saxophone, Arthur "Rockin&A" Neilson (guitar), Lee Brovitz (bass guitar) and Johnny Morelli (drums). Lauper and Turi wrote the bulk of their material, and the group also covered pop standards, such as Barry Mann and Cynthia Weil&"I&Gonna Be Strong" (which Lauper covered again on a 1994 album). Blue Angel were briefly popular on the New York club scene. The band reformed without Lauper in 1987, under the name Boppin&the Blues. Lauper joined them on stage for a one-time performance at New York&Lone Star Cafe, singing a Big Mama Thornton song and "That&Alright Mama". They have since disbanded.
