Description
The Deltones were a ska band from the United Kingdom that formed in the late 80s, their sole album was first released in France in 1988 and shortly after (1989) in UK on the UNICORN label. Now – 35 years later it gets its long overdue re-release from Mad Butcher Germany to coinside with their reunion set at Freedom Sounds Festival.
An early incarnation of The Deltones had recorded a session for the John Peel Show in the summer of 1986, but it wasn’t until two years later that they made their vinyl début via the ‘Make Me Smile’ 45. The three prong vocal delivery of Amanda, Verona and Dill, a highly energetic live show and colorful outfits made their many gigs ‘must sees’. They were the closest thing to The Bodysnatchers for a whole new generation of ska fans – all women except for a drummer. When we started our radio show back in 1989 we couldn’t stop playing theis album, and “Stay Where You Are” was one of our most requested songs! We are so happy to stock reissues from the UK / European explosion era!
