The Merton Parkas were a Mod band formed in the Merton area of south London in the mid-70's by Danny Talbot (vocals & guitar), Mick Talbot (keyboards), Neil Hurrell (bass) and Simon Smith (drums). They emerged on the wave of Mods revival and signed with an independent label called Beggars Banquet.
They had a few moderately successful singles like :
- You Need Wheels
- Plastic Smile
- Give It To Me Now
- Put Me In The Picture
and one LP
After the group disbanded in 1980, Mick Talbot went on to play with Dexy's Midnight Runners, The Bureau and with Paul Weller in The Style Council.
