DELTAS, THE : Mad For It

Long awaited CD release of The Deltas' second studio album. Includes 4 bonus tracks from the long deleted vinyl only 'You Can't Judge A Book' EP. The Deltas were the wildest of the new breed of Rockabilly bands which took the scene by storm in the early 1980s, prior to the birth of Psychobilly. Along with The Polecats, Restless, The Shakin' Pyramids and The Bluecats, The Deltas returned the youthful energy that had been missing from Rockabilly music since it's first erupted in the mid 1950s. Their first album established the trio a huge fanbase of young Rockabillies worldwide, but by the time this second album was released on ID Records, the line-up had swelled to a 5-piece with ex-Polecats (and now Morrissey) guitarist Boz Boorer joining the ranks. 'Mad For It' was an altogether more diverse and sophisticated affair then their previous output. It wasn't what their fanbase was expecting, but is now widely regarded as their best ever release. This is the first time on CD for 'Mad For It', the original vinyl version being unavailable for many years. As an added bonus their 'You Can't Judge A Book' EP (a rare and long deleted limited edeition vinyl-only release) is included too. The package is presented in a smart digi-pack.
