About When the Angels Swing [DVD]

When the Angels Swing is a swing album by German pop group No Angels, released by Cheyenne Records and Polydor in association with Universal Music on November 29, 2002. Recorded in promotion of a special big band concert at the Berlin Tränenpalast on October 2, 2002, the album differed highly from the group's previous, mainstream pop releases in that they performed their songs with blues and jazz arrangements. Musicians Jens Kuphal and Till Brönner were consulted to work on the album which was inspired by the New York City Stork Club and several 1940s swing standards. Aside from the title, When the Angel Swing is not directly associated with the No Angels's 2001 single, "When the Angels Sing." While the album failed to chart on the Swiss albums chart, it managed to peak at number 9 in Germany and number 22 in Austria. Primarily produced and arranged by Till Brönner, it spawned the Alison Moyet cover "All Cried out" as a single. The rest of the track list primarily featured re-arranged tracks, taken from the group's albums Elle'ments and Now ... Us! except the only previously unreleased song "Funky Dance" more »
