The duo's name is reputed to be an amalgamation of "Sally" (Oldfield's name) and "Angie", the name of a guitar instrumental, written by Davey Graham.[1]
The duo's second single, "Child of Allah" was released three years after they had split up,[2][3] a song which subsequently ended up on Sally Oldfield's debut solo album, Water Bearer in 1978.[4]
