Dalmas Music Credits Music Spectrum Spectrum (aka The Indelible Murtceps) was a Melbourne-based band active 1969-73, featuring Mike Rudd on vocals and guitar. There is a good and detailed profile of the band here. The piece contains this anecdote about their contribution to the film: Around this time (1972), Spectrum also contributed material for an obscure detective film called Dalmas by Bert Dehling, who later directed the feature Pure Shit. Snap Crackle And... from Warts was apparently the only track actually used in the film, but they also recorded at least one other instrumental piece Dalmas (Theme) which eventually surfaced on EMI's ROYGBIV compilation in 1984 (although this track does not appear on the Ghosts CD). Mike: "We never even saw the finished film. It had what you might call a 'limited pubic release'. We basically jammed to the images we saw at a preview screening and that was about it. I'm sure we didn't even get paid for it." Sadly, Warts Up Your Nose was to be Lee Nealeʼs swansong -- he suffered some form of breakdown shortly after the album was completed and left the band in September 1972. Regrettably, this fine player abandoned the music scene for good, dropping completely out of sight, and to this day not even Mike and Bill know anything about Leeʼs whereabouts, or what became of him after leaving Spectrum. This sounds alarmingly similar to some of the freak-outs that happen in the film. (Below: Spectrum's 1970 line-up, Lee Neale, keyboards, vocals, left, Bill Putt, bass, Mark Kennedy, drums, and Mike Rudd, right, vocals, guitar, recorder, harmonica) (Below: Spectrum in TV Week and Mike Rudd on the cover of Daily Planet) (Below: still active in 2012) The relevant tracks appeared on: LP (stereo) EMI EME 1100 1984 Red Orange Yellow Green Blue Indigo Violet "Dalmas (Theme) Spectrum as The Indelible Murtceps (Rudd) LP EMI HMV OCSD-7597 Warts Up Your Nose “Snap Crackle & ...” Spectrum as The Indelible Murtceps Produced by Howard Gable Engineers - Ern Rose, Roger Savage, John Sayers, John French Studios - Armstrong's, South Melbourne; TCS, Richmond Studios - Armstrong's, South Melbourne; TCS, Richmond The title track "Dalmas (theme)" which doesn't appear over the opening or closing titles - the few that are on the film - has since turned up as a bonus on the two CD version of Spectrum's second album, Milesago: Disc 2, track 9: "Dalmas (theme)" .

  • Spectrumto Ariel
    Spectrum to Ariel feat. Glyn Mason The Mike Rudd & Glyn Mason story Glyn Mason was already well known to Spectrum and Ariel’s founder members Mike Rudd and Bill Putt when he accepted the pair’s invitation to join Ariel and journey to the UK in 1975 to help promote the Rock & Roll Scars album, which Ariel had recorded at Abbey Road Studios earlier that same year. Ariel’s UK tour was certainly action-packed, but after drummer John Lee quit the band returned to Australia where guitarist Harvey James famously also left the band to join Sherbet. Despite a few more personnel changes, Glyn stuck with Rudd and Putt right up to Ariel’s final Island Fantasia concert at Dallas Brooks Hall in 1977. Glyn was still on board to record Ariel’s last studio album Goodnight Fiona, which saw his emergence as an assured songwriter. It’s interesting to note that Ariel’s final single, It’s Only Love, written by Glyn, was Billy Thorpe’s favourite Australian single. How Spectrum to Ariel came about It was Laneway Music’s Vincent Donato who suggested to Mike Rudd that he put on a special one-off concert on at Melbourne’s famous Caravan Music Club. The concert would be based around Laneway’s re-Visionary album, an eclectic collection of Mike’s songs culled from Spectrum, Murtceps and Ariel albums, which. Laneway planned to release on iTunes simultaneously with the concert. Rudd has resisted similar propositions in the past on the grounds that a one-off concert demands so much rehearsal time with little prospect for the band to exploit in future.
