Delta 5
KRS415 Kill Rock Stars
Singles & Sessions 1979-81
Part of the Leeds/UK art/music scene in the late 70s that launched
The Gang of Four and The Mekons, Delta 5 was signed to Rough Trade
after only a few months in existence, and released their first single
recording, "Mind Your Own Business/Now That You've Gone" in 1979. No
less an authority than legendary BBC host and producer John Peel
received an advance copy of the single and played it twice that same
night. He then requested that the band do a "Sessions" gig for him
and the band was officially on its way. Relentless gigging with The
Gang of Four, Echo and the Bunnymen, B52s, Specials, Teardrop
Explodes, and U2 put the band on the map worldwide. They continued
touring and recording until various members departed in late 1981,
when they recorded one last single and then broke up for good in 1982.
the official release date is Tuesday January 24. we will try and ship
all orders placed this weekend by Tuesday.
