THE DELTAS - Live 1981

Recorded on a cassette tape recorder at Letchworth Football Club on Sunday 27th September 1981. This is a work in the process of being restored so a big thank you goes to Twister and the RockHall Audio Restoration Lab. Thanks also to Volker Houghton for the loan of the tape and the picture scans below. These tracks are not of a high quality, they are purely for historical value to fans of early 'The Deltas' music, and anyone else who wants to know what the rockin' scene was like in the early 1980's.  I saw 'The Deltas' play live the same as this set was recorded, in the downstairs bar of the 'Clarendon Hotel' in Hammersmith, West London, which is the same location where the Klub Foot started in the much larger ballroom upstairs. I remember the set being very similar to the recordings here, the only real difference was that the band took to the stage wearing boiler suits and hob-nailed boots and had no clarinet player. Crazy times indeed...
