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.
The early â40s saw a new look for the Delta Rhythm Boys: Clinton Holland took over first tenor and was replaced shortly thereafter by Carl Jones; Essie Atkins was replaced by Kelsey Pharr on baritone. Their multifaceted career continued. In 1942, they began playing Las Vegas (when it only had two hotels).
