Download The Nasty Angels CD FREE FREE FREE from Prosity Records: Go on go on go on go on - go there and download music for free We are based in Newcastle Upon Tyne (North East England) and are often found hanging around open mic nights............The Earl Grey in Gosforth on a Sunday Evening (A Paul Jackson Spectacular), The Carriage - Jesmond on a Wednesday (this is run by The Runwells - the best band around in the whole universe) and a Sunday (The Dharma Banana - stalwarts of The Newcastle original music scene). If you'd like to hear more of the stuff we knock out, raw songs and the band practising, then have a look at the "music", please do. Bob Dylan is my top artist of all time and no-one will ever top Bringing It All Back Home, Highway 61 Revisited and Blonde on Blonde (all in one year man !) - not in my opinion anyway. If you have a different opinion you are welcome to it - but you are wrong ! I also love the songs of Morrissey (maybe it's because I'm from Manchester - where the King is Denis Law........) and Shane MacGowan. The Ian Siegal Band (www.iansiegal.com) are the gig I most enjoy these days - ALWAYS get to see them if you get chance. Mark Sandman and Morphine are a constant source of inspiration - love the sound they have. I have been involved with local bands since about 1978 and in all honesty, they have not amounted to very much and I conclude I am a slow learner - however - after a short but enjoyable spell trying to play drums in a friends band I realised that I enjoyed working on original material. I got 3 albums out on Prosity Records (www.prosity.blogspot.com) thanks to the legendary Dan Tindall an all time great pioneer of low cost Hi-Fi and original acoustic music - the music is FREE; some people seem to prefer paying lottsa money for shitbox albums by industry performers - my advice "do like Bob says - when you see a crowd go the other way !" and go to Prosity (well Bob didbn't say that last bit but I'm sure he would approve)

Story behind the song
Hey - well everyone should try a Highway song 51, 61, 66 were all taken - so I thought I'd get in quick
Lyrics
There is a mountaintop in Sausalito - That I go to when I feel low I like to know how high I can go – like a saint climbin’ on his halo I like the air that – you get - up there And there’s an alien in my window – and I’m not scared but It’s definitely a close encounter – The Director’s cut And I’m not scared – cos they are – everywhere I need a sabre of light But I can’t find no energy tonight Highway 99 runs right up to the sky But you will cry and you can die – on Highway 99 Not like the nights with no curtains - in our railroad room With the streetlights and traffic - we fought the gloom We were the only sentries – of the night I said I’d never consider things like this – but here I am (Didn’t think that I could take this risk – maybe I can) Sleepless trying not to wake you – like only I can I won’t give in – without a fight but - night dreams are easy tonight The answer to my selfish plight Armies of angels assemble Right under the moon As holy empires crumble – and about time too Some debts the taxman never collects – it’s true Like I never declared – that I still love you A Yokohama fog falls and curls - Canadian snows lie over the world The old ice ages wait their turn – As summer sunshine burns An armada of anger – is anchored off Stavanger A Sargasso Sea of sorrow – can smother all tomorrows The Kerry rain – runs down my lane It’s time to decide if I will ride – on Highway 99 She sleeps in Seattle and she could be mine – there’s nowhere to hide Virginia plains - are my domain I should take any other road – not Highway 99 There’s many other ways I know – not Highway 99 I really love the scenery – on Highway 99 There are dark and deep ravines – on Highway 99 It is the most dangerous road – Highway 99 Where your conscience can explode – Highway 99 A year can pass in just a day – on Highway 99 Your whole life can slip away – on Highway 99 There are so many wrecks – on Highway 99 Am I gonna be the next ? – on Highway 99 Well what do you expect ? – on Highway 99 There is no life after death on Highway 99
