Prophonics 2029 Posted February 20, 2010 Posted February 20, 2010 I have just seen this on Ebay https://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=350317246754&fromMakeTrack=true&ssPageName=VIP:watchlink:top:en It looks a different colour to my old copy and the B-side is a different track as well, is this the first of many or has it been around for a while.

Its a later issue.. Real and a demo too.. never seen this before !
Chalky Posted February 20, 2010 Posted February 20, 2010 1970 release apparently according to listing of the label, 5 years after the original release of The Dip.
Ady Croasdell Posted February 20, 2010 Posted February 20, 2010 It's a ridiculously dated sound to be released in 1970. odd.
Benji Posted February 20, 2010 Posted February 20, 2010 Looks like a reissue from around the same time as they reissued kenard what did you gain by that b/w entertainers iv - my garden of eden (early/mid 70s?). i recall original stampers were used for kenard/entertainers iv, i.e. reissue has same delta no. as the original. same here?

Chalky Posted February 20, 2010 Posted February 20, 2010 (edited) Couldn't get that listing Chalky but there were plenty after 1970 Well I thought it was strange as I thought there was some in the 80's. The listing is Global Dog https://www.globaldog...nfo/d/dore.html Its the same listing as the one on Dave Rimmer's site, Dave does mention up to 1970 only. Edited February 20, 2010 by chalky
John A Posted February 20, 2010 Posted February 20, 2010 FLYNNY where are you? he used to champion this rare B side..good record.
Prophonics 2029 Posted February 20, 2010 Author Posted February 20, 2010 Many thanks for that, funny how the say The Tuffs on I Only Cry Once A Day Now.
Anoraks Corner Posted February 21, 2010 Posted February 21, 2010 FLYNNY where are you? he used to champion this rare B side..good record. I'm here...well remembered as I reviewed it back in '99 for Shades of Soul: >>> Disc Reviews <<< Yes, the flipside is tops...but...the version on this number release is the later recording with added brass, percussion etc as featured on the reissue LP...not as good as the orginal #724 purple label copies...imo.
Guest TONY ROUNCE Posted February 21, 2010 Posted February 21, 2010 It's a ridiculously dated sound to be released in 1970. odd. Lew Bedell was probably trying to con a few people into thinking it was the follow up to "Seems Like I Gotta Do Wrong", which was their breakout hit that year...
Guest Imogen Posted February 21, 2010 Posted February 21, 2010 I noticed this on ebay the other day because it had a different flip side.The original flip side of the Dip is called the Weirdo. I did some research into the dore label not so long ago as I came across an album by the Whispers on Dore. I discovered that quite a few of their records were reissued in the 70's and perhaps later. You can usually tell by the colour of the label and the vinyl. Some Dore reissue records are in purple vinyl.

Here is one of those reissue LPs from the early 80s, rarely seen: https://cgi.ebay.com....e=STRK:MEWAX:IT There may possibly be three different LPs comprising their Dore material ...

Ady Potts Posted February 22, 2010 Posted February 22, 2010 It's a ridiculously dated sound to be released in 1970. odd. If it's a 1970 press, would guess it was aimed at sales in east L.A. Ady. Don't forget that area had taken this sound as 'their' sound at that time. Look at the output from Memory Pain, Good Old Gold, Groovey Disc, Lost Nite, etc. Re-issuing (booting) sounds from the 50's/60's for the Latino population in E.L.A. It also fitted in with the Low Rider scene. You can sometimes pick up these records, mint old stock, in record shops in that area as it's still popular there today. I will never forget the first time I stayed at a mates place down Whittier Blvd a few years back, we sat in his back yard late on a Friday night & the air was filled with the sounds of group ballads from the likes of Thee Midniters, then the occasional 'crack, crack', followed by me saying "oh, someones got some fireworks!" But Sunday night was dead quiet, they're a religious lot !

Guest ganesh Posted February 22, 2010 Posted February 22, 2010 original copy has number 735 under the whispers and weirdo as the flip
Ady Potts Posted February 22, 2010 Posted February 22, 2010 I love the "It only hurts for a little while" it's an incredible track. Just a thought, I wonder what the sound clarity is like on this copy compared to the mid 60's release? Would be interesting to play them side by side.
Guest Posted February 22, 2010 Posted February 22, 2010 (edited) I'm here...well remembered as I reviewed it back in '99 for Shades of Soul: >>> Disc Reviews <<< Yes, the flipside is tops...but...the version on this number release is the later recording with added brass, percussion etc as featured on the reissue LP...not as good as the orginal #724 purple label copies...imo. Ive got the Dore Lp "Shhhhhhh" from 1979 - all the 60s stuff with the added production. The version of "it only hurts for a little while" on the lp is not the same version as on the flip of the second issue of the dip. All the added production was done in the late 70s for the LP. I believe the re-issue of the Dip was 69 / 70 They also changed the label to the black version early 70s So that gives us a rough idea. Edited February 22, 2010 by mossy
Guest Mrs M Posted March 14, 2010 Posted March 14, 2010 Go on Dave Rimmer's site, I am well informed by my better half that a great deal of work has been done on the Dore label in it's entirity!!!
mshoals Posted March 14, 2010 Posted March 14, 2010 There are also 2 Toussaint McCall 45s with the same release number as this Whispers 842 release:

I have the original 1964 release of it only hurts, I have not heard the 1970 release I always assumed the lp from 1981 which I have also got was the only re working of this, and thought Bedell was just cashing in on the recent (1980) chart success of the whispers. Ps hundred or more releases on Dore' after 1970.
Guest Brett F Posted March 15, 2010 Posted March 15, 2010 By the way (think i mentioned this on similar topic years back) the excellent double CD the 'NORTHERN SOUL OF DORE'' (NIGHT OWL MUSIC) incorrectly has the later version of 'It Only Hurts For A Little While' in it's selection whilst stating it as the 1964 Dore' 724 release, i did e-mail the company at the time (2004 ) and put this to them .....they never got back too me...........
Ady Croasdell Posted March 15, 2010 Posted March 15, 2010 Great info chaps on a label that we own but is a nightmare in getting the right tapes. Do you Brett or MShoals have any of the non-soul stuff there's a lot of 50s and early 60s we need originals of to compare to the tapes. Is anyone a Dore completist? Ady

Is anyone a Dore completist? I have access to large 50's/early 60's collection which has a fair few early (non-Soul) Dore releases within it. Let me know which artists/tracks you need help with.

Ady Hi Ady, sorry don't have any non-soul related Dore', but if you need the 725 release i'd be happy to send it down, for any future projects etc. Still want confirmation on the 1970 re-issue , Steve said earlier that this release was not the same as the 1980's lp, so I'm assuming he has that copy.?
Chalky Posted March 16, 2010 Posted March 16, 2010 (edited) hi Brett. The one I posted is the soundfile from the one on eBay so definately the 1970 release.

Garethx Posted March 16, 2010 Posted March 16, 2010 What is the current price for The Superbs "On A Day When It's Raining" Dor 753? Always thought this had the potential to be a big record in the right hands: perfect California soul.

Guest Brett F Posted March 16, 2010 Posted March 16, 2010 (edited) hi Brett. The one I posted is the soundfile from the one on eBay so definately the 1970 release. Well that's interesting, as i stated i have never heard the 1970 re-issue recording, the thing that has always thrown me is that with the 1980 LP 'Shhh', and the version of 'It Only Hurts' although very different in production etc is to my ears just a re working at studio level of the original 724' release (from 1964), and seeing as the aforementioned LP is basically re-workings of other earlier Whispers Dore' material (by the way other than 'It Only hurts' the whole album is lacklustre and a horrible release!) i assumed this was hastily put together and re-worked for the 1980 crowd, purely on the back of 'And The Beat Goes On' and its chart success. Basically i'm still not convinced, as mentioned earlier in this thread Steve (Mossy) categorically said the 1970 version is not the same as the 'Shhh' album release. I have listened to the soundfile, and to my ears that is the same as the copy i have on the LP....... (Do we know the seller on Ebay and are we sure he took the copy from the actual record he was selling?) Guess i'd like someone with the actual 45' to download it to settle this for once and all..... ps..I love the original recording, but do think the later cut works well in a crossover room........and i've played them both out Edited March 16, 2010 by Brett F
Guest Brett F Posted March 16, 2010 Posted March 16, 2010 (edited) By the way just checked the original ebay listing.someone bought a re-issue for £225..... I have just listened to the ebay soundfile, and i'm not sure that sounds any different to my 1964 version ?, yet the one you posted Chalky sounds exactly like my LP take ?......i'm more confused than ever...and from actually liking the record i am am now sick to the back teeth of listening to it....

Can someone post in refosoul the definite lp take and the 1970 take to clear this up. I was sure I downloaded the 1970 take from an ebay listing but could be wrong now. It could well be the LP take although I've never taken a soundfile from the lp as I've never had it.
Guest Brett F Posted March 16, 2010 Posted March 16, 2010 I can download my LP take i have it on my pc, but no point it's the same as the one you posted as the 1970 release, but if you would like me to clarify i'd post it ? Did you re listen to the ebay sound file, to my ears sounded the same as the 1964 release. ps yeah agreed a legitimate re-release (issue), still a re -issue though isn't it and a good 6 years after the original, i certainly would not pay £225 for a Grapevine (legit) copy of Matt Brown on Jar-Val for instance..........what ever way you want to dress it up, it's still a re-issue isn't it. I just wish perhaps Mossy or Flynny, who i'm supposing have this Dore' release as well as the original and/or LP could put our minds at rest.

Know mate I'll amend the info on the 1970 to state it's the lp take and hope someone can post the 1970 take. I will look for the download or at the listing to see if the soundfile still there. Yeah I agree its a re-issue but not in the same class as a Grapevine reissue though....
Chalky Posted March 16, 2010 Posted March 16, 2010 the one I've posted as the 1964 take is as you say Brett the same as the one in the ebay listing. So can someone post for sure the 1964 release (Brett?) to compare please.
