The Deltas - Boogie Desease
Le début des années 1980’s est, rappelons l’arrivée d’un nouveau style de rockabilly revival au son et à la production plus contemporaine et laissant une large place à la contrebasse slappée. Les groupes précurseurs de ce style sont The Stray Cats, The Polecats, Restless et The Deltas. Cette formation britannique enregistrent en 1981 un incontournable et excellent lp Boogie Desease sur le label Nervous records (label a qui l’on devra pendant la décennie qui s’annonce l’enregistrement de nombreuses formations néo rockabilly et psychobilly de la décennie. Le groupe est un trio formé par Steve Bongo chant et batterie, Captain Pat Marvel à la guitare et Little John à la contrebasse. L’enregistrement de cet album suit le succès de leur premier single contenant 2 classiques Heart attack et Spellbound, Rockin’ Roy Williams le producteur au recto de la pochette du lp écrit que The Deltas se place à la croisée des chemins entre le sauvage des Polecats et la folie des Meteors.
Ce qui transparait aussi au niveau de ce disque c’est l’influence du blues et rockin’ blues des fifties caractérisé par la présence de covers de légendes du genre comme Doctor Ross (Boogie Desease), Lightnin’ Hopkins (Honey babe), ils sont sans doute l’un des premiers groupes revival de rockin’ blues. Mais cet album est plus rockabilly que rockin’ bluess , unetendance qui s’inversera progressivement avec les albums suivants. On trouve la cover du rockabilly Long Black Train de Conway Twitty et du white rock Rasing seade Gene Maltais.
Ce qui est remarquable c’est le grand nombre de compositions originales du groupe et leurs qualités on peut citer évidemment Heart Attack (dans une version différente du 45 tours) mais aussi As you like it, Blues in the bootle, Vistim of your love, London girls, Pies ‘n’ mash, et Fashion train, se rajoute une composition du producteur Roy Wiliams Nine Below zero. L’un des titres les plus remarquable du disque est à mon goût le fantastique medium rockMoonshine dont l’auteur n’est pas connu. On peut noter qu'en 2005 le label Vampirella réédite l’album vinyl en cd.
Long before terms like Psychobilly and Neorockabilly became common , The Deltas had already started spreading their own brand of high-energy Rock`n´Roll. The original lineup was Steve Bongo (v, d), Captain Pat Marvel (g) and Little John (b) and the trio recorded a demo tape in 1980, loaded with 50´s Rockabilly obscurities like Who Told You?, My Babe or Your Wildcat Ways. A year later they'd already got quite a reputation to be one of the wildest live acts and most talented rocking bands out there. Roy Williams, who had just started his own record company, contracted the Deltas and recorded the now classic Boogie Disease album with them in the Pathway Studios. He introduced them on the back sleeve of the longplayer as "-wilder than the Polecats-crazier than The Meteors". The album sold well and The Deltas became very busy touring the UK and the rest of Europe, playing small clubs as well as some of the big RnR weekenders.
Some years later, the lineup was enlarged to a five-piece outfit with well-known ex-Polecat Boz Boorer (g) & John Buck (d) and the band released their more weirder, more diverse second album, Mad For It (1986), on ID Records, followed by another studio output Tuffer Than Tuff (1988) , a four track EP entitled You Can´t Judge A Book(1988) and a live album on the Link Records Live and Rockin´ (1989) series.
Their unique blend of high-power Rockabilly, Blues and pure Rock`n´Roll energy still attracts both Psychobilly and Rockabilly followings all over the world and the band has also been included on many essential Psychobilly compilation albums, such as The Magnificent Seven and Hell's Bent On Rockin´ . Though continuously rumoured for an official comeback, The Deltas haven't recorded new material since the 10´´ vinyl offering From Fleetville To Vegas back in 1995 and have only played a few live shows over the last decade.

"Tuffer Than Tuff !"
Link Rcds | 12 titres | 1988 | Neo-Rockabilly
Critique : Nouveau changement de batteur pour cet album une nouvelle fois très bon. Bongo se prend pour Freddy Krueger sur la pochette, et les influences Blues du groupe ressortent un peu plus. Toutefois le côté Rockabilly psychotique de DELTAS est toujours bien présent.
Liste des titres: 1. Where'd you stay last night? 2. Come back baby 3. Teenage Ball 4. Tuffer than Tuff 5. Crazy News 6. Ice Cold Baby 7. Had my Fun 8. Cool Off Baby 9. It Ain't Right 10. 'Erd the Gossip? 11. John I'm Only Dancing 12. 9 below 0
