Dalziel trained as a signalman for British Railways, where workmates who heard him sing encouraged him to enter a talent contest which he won. According to an item in the NME he was also a plumber before joining the Honeycombs.
In April 1966 The Honeycombs broke up as D'Ell pursued a solo career. Honey and John Lantree continued with a new line up calling themselves The New Honeycombs, but having little success.
In March 1967, D'Ell released "It Breaks My Heart In Two" / "Better Use Your Head", CBS 202605, the B side later became a Northern Soul classic, although very few copies were sold.
