Delta-Cross Band

Danish blues/rock band, 1979-1990. The danish band Delta Blues Band had been leading an inconsistant career for a decade, when in the late 70's they teamed up with former Bob Dylan-band guitarist [a=Billy Cross (2)]. In 1979 as Delta Blues Band featuring Billy Cross they recorded the album "No Overdubs" in one six hours recording session. The album generated the band a reputation as the only genuine blues act in Denmark and same year they formed Delta-Cross Band. From 1979 to 1982 the band released three albums and was a very popular local concert name. In 1980 they backed [a=C.V. Jørgensen] on his Tidens Tern album, one of ten albums on the national cultural heritage albums list. Cross left the band in 1983 and Troels Jensen, Søren Engel and Preben Feddersen re-formed Delta Blues Band and released an album. Billy Cross went solo, releasing albums and producing for other artists. For a short while in 1990 they re-banded and released a single album, "Tough Times".
