Biography:

The Endings released four records on the Barrier label between 1974 and 1976 and one last record on the Clifton label in 1980. The background music on “Trickle Trickle” b/w “Five Hundred Miles To Go” is so subtle that both sides come over almost as acapella. “Sure As The Flowers” is a remake of the Hi-Tones’ recording and is unusual in that it is better than the original. They performed live at UGHA in New Jersey, September 28th, 1980. The Bass lead was Angel Anglero. In  the mid to late 1960s, Angel was the bass for The Channels and appeared at “live” shows with The Channels all over the NYC tri-state area, though he never recorded with them.
