About Guy Darrell
Artist Biography
b. John Swail, c.
1940, England. In the early 60s, Darrell sang with Ray McVay’s band. Among his records were ‘Daddy Cool’, released in 1961, and ‘I’ve Been Hurt’, a cover of the hit by Bill Deal And The Rondels, which was released in 1966. He also recorded ‘Turn To Me’ and ‘Sing Me No Sad Songs’. The latter, a composition by Elton John and Bernie Taupin, was released in 1969 and almost immediately withdrawn. With others, including former members of Summer Set, Darrell formed the Guy Darrell Syndicate. Among the band’s songs were ‘Birds Of A Feather’, for which composer credit was given to Joe South, and ‘Keep The Rain From My Door’. He also worked with Martin Jenner, Dave Green, Derek Elson and Graham Jarvis in the obscure progressive rock band Deep Feeling, which released a solitary album for DJM Records in 1971.
