[2] Signed to Casablanca Records by Neil Bogart, the original lineup consisted of Delaney himself as well as Peter Sweval, Richard Martin-Ross, David Andez, Richie Fontana[3] and Craig Krampf.
In 1980 the band obtained gold record status in Australia for their hit single “Life at the Outpost”.
"Life at the Outpost" managed to sell over 50,000 copies in Australia, earning it an Australian Gold Record award.
The band's classic "Walk the Night" appeared on the official soundtrack of the video game Grand Theft Auto IV, released in 2008.
According to Rockstar Games, the company thought the song so important to have on the soundtrack that they hired a private investigator to locate Delaney's surviving relatives (he had died in 2003) and secure the rights to include it.
