The Del-Aires

The Del-Aires were a Paterson, New Jersey rock band of the 1960s.[1] They were featured as themselves in Del Tenney's 1964 B-movie beach party film, The Horror of Party Beach.[2] For the film, Gary Robert Jones and Ronnie Linares wrote one song together, "Drag", and one song each: "Just Wigglin' 'n' Wobblin'" (Jones) and "Elaine" (Linares). The Del-Aires performed all six songs in the film, which included "Joy Ride", "The Zombie Stomp" and "You Are Not a Summer Love."[3] Following his stint with the Del-Aires, saxophonist/guitarist/keyboardist Bobby Osborne was a member of the band Gas Mask, perhaps best known for having their first (and only) album, Their First Album, produced by Teo Macero.[4]
