Post 656 - The Delltones - Give Me Some Loving - Have A Little Talk With Myself

The Delltones have been performing for Australian audiences for over five decades; their most successful recording years were in the 1960's. Wilson is the only current member from the original line-up. In the mid-1980's, he transformed the group from a vocal quartet to a five-piece vocal band. This, along with other stylistic changes, led to the band's resurgence and the chart topping, rock ‘n roll revival album, “Bop Til Ya Drop”. The Delltones remain one of the most consistent live entertainers in Australia and have been entertaining Australian audiences for over five decades. Wilson is the only current member from the original line up. The band recorded for a number of different labels over the years. In 1970 they recorded this single for Fable Records, a cover of the Spencer Davis Group’s “Give Me Some Loving” b/w “Have A Little Talk With Myself” (FB-030) the B side was a cover of Ray Stevens 1969 song. David MacKay produced and arranged the single. Flac

Both tracks were initially on the "Birmingham" LP (on EMI) - produced in the UK by David MacKay. Guess the 'radio ban' resulted in a single release on Fable.

Incidentally The Delltones website has, for over 12m, commented on the group as "having an indefinite break" (from performing). Maybe they have all retired permanently!!
