This box set features the six albums Angel released on Neil Bogart’s legendary Casablanca Records label, in addition to a seventh disc that contains mono mixes, single edits, soundtrack contributions, and other rarities.

Soundtrack to the 1983 American musical and romance film Flashdance, it sold more than 20 million copies worldwide. The film's three singles feature on the album. Two of these singles, "Flashdance … What A Feeling" by Irene Cara and "Maniac" by Michael Sembello, peaked at #1 in the U.S. Billboard Hot 100. The track "Romeo" by Donna Summer was released as a promo video to MTV prior to the film's release, composed only of outtakes from the film. However, the song was not released to radio as Summer was on the verge of releasing her 1983 album "She Works Hard For The Money", and the title track was already becoming a major hit.
