Further Info:

The Angels are a hard rock band that formed in Adelaide, Australia in 1970. The band later relocated from Adelaide to Sydney and enjoyed huge local success until well into the 1990s. For the purposes of international release, their records were released under the names Angel City and later The Angels From Angel City.

In June 1990, Beyond Salvation was released. Produced by Terry Manning, the LP spawned five successful singles, including "Dogs are Talking" and "Backstreet Pickup". The flipside of "Dogs are Talking" featured demo tracks by three new Australian bands that The Angels had chosen to support them on their upcoming tour, including The Desert Cats, The Hurricanes and the John Woodruff-managed Baby Animals. The Angels then hit the road on their "Beyond Salvation" Tour with Cheap Trick as supporting act. The video for "Backstreet Pickup" was filmed the day the band were told of the album reaching number one on the charts and shows a very buoyant and enthusiastic band performing for the cameras.

Hi there, well as you know, the politics of record releases from the record companies from past to present were not always logical or understandable. All I can say is, that this LP was released 1990 in Germany by Crysalis Records.

The songs written on the back cover of the album during the slide show . I pretty sure they weren't on the album I brought. Most of them look like old Angel songs and Junk City was never on Beyond Salvation, but released as a single at around about the same time.
