The Daltons and a question about remixes

[elevatedmole]

Okay.. rather than look stupid and flood the board with 2 new topics at once (sorry, I've been always told not to post new topics very often

) I will compact my 2 questions into one..

1: When they did the Daltons, what did Adam play? I swore I read he that he played the tambourine, but now I can't find the info anywhere.

2: Remixes. Actually, one of them isn't. On the b-side, A Room At The Heartbreak Hotel (I think that's the correct name), seems to have the same singers that sing on the Lemon Perfecto mix, and the Even Better Than The Real Thing remixes. But they are not credited anywhere. Does anyone know who they are?

"Bono? Bono is going to tie ropes around my neck? Wait a minute.." - Edge, when shooting the 'Numb' video

Actually Adam played bass (imagine that!) when they were the Daltons. He was Betty Lou Dalton.

Regarding A Room At The Heartbreak Hotel, I dont know their name but it was a group of gospel singers from Memphis. It was recorded at Sun Studios the same time as Angel Of Harlem, When Love Comes To Town, Love Rescue Me (Prisoner Of Love) and Jesus Christ. They sound similiar to the singers on the remixes you mention but I do not think they are the same people.

Man it would be fun to have them do something like this again.

They came out at the Coliseum in L.A. like that, a couple of other shows we went to back then, and it was before most of the audience had shown up, and before the Pretenders opened, and it was so funny because people were booing them, but mostly no one was even looking or paying them any attention. It was so great because they were real twangy, and Adam was in a dress.
