Fifties teen idol Jimmy Angel, named Best Los Angeles Lounge Act in 2014, ''burns with a high-voltage dynamism that is downright otherworldly,'' says LA Weekly's Johnny Whiteside.

With a string of hits and ''10 GOLD RECORDS'' to his name (many of them originals), in this album the electrifying Rock 'n Roller is jamming on hits from a few of his 'old friends' Elvis, Buddy Holly, Del Shannon, Richie Valens and more!

Jimmy is the subject of an upcoming documentary film, The Jimmy Project, which details his longstanding alliance as protégé of infamous mafioso Joe Colombo. Visit https://vimeo.com/242191342 to see the trailer for this film!

Few know the unbelievable story of Jimmy Angel who rocked New York's club scene in the mid-sixties under the management of mob boss, Joe Colombo. As Jimmy's singles began to hit the pop charts he suddenly found himself in the middle of a bloody gangland war when Colombo was gunned down. With no one to turn to but his teddy bear, Jimmy fled the country in order to survive. In 2013, Jimmy returned to America to revive his career, so we will know his name, before it's too late.

"Thank you For Loving Me" is a colorful adventure filled with boppers, chicks, mobsters, baseball, wigs and the pursuit of an impossible dream.

Press Quotes

''With his piercing blue eyes, dyed-black eyebrows and outrageous rockabilly quiff, the singer is sight to behold, an 83-year-old ''teen idol.'' Since returning to the U.S. a few years ago after spending three decades in the Far East, he's become a cult sensation around Los Angeles.''

     —Bob Mehr, NWR Magazine, January 2019
