Delta Dawn by Helen Reddy Songfacts. 1  This song was first recorded by Alexander Harvey in 1972. Tracy Nelson (who sang backup on the original) and Bette Midler put the song in their live repertoire before it became a country hit for Tanya Tucker.
Co-written with Don Henley and sung by Glenn Frey, the first single from the bandâs 1973 album Desperado has a heartbreaking quality to it. Freyâs smooth vocals, backed by Henley, convey the pathos of lost dreams and the hope that each new sunrise â signalling the end of a night fuelled by tequila, or not â brings.
