Marty Rhone, an Australian-based pop singer, signed with M7 Records a sub-label of EMI Music in mid-1975.[1][2] Rhone had spent the previous year or two as an actor – both in music theatre and TV dramas.[1][3] "Denim and Lace" was used to re-launch his singing career.[3] It was co-written by Laurence "Roy" Lister and Francis "Shad" Lyons.[4][5] Lister was an A&R agent for Leeds Music while Lyons was a country music artist.[5] Both also produced the single.[1]
Reception
Cash Box magazine said "Marty Rhone sets an aggressive vocal against a choppy strut beat, sounding a bit like the Everly Brothers at times and Neil Sedaka at other points. A very simple story, equally simple catchy melody line, clean production and a good, high echoing hook combine for almost assured AM airplay."[6]
