Pete S Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 What do we know about this label, if anything, I notice a lot of records are produced by Wardell Quazergue and it's part of the same set up as Hot Line etc, just wondered if there were any recommendations apart from Don & Ron and if there's ever been a compilation?

boba Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 My recommendation for the label is the rarer second sonics 45 "just like delilah". Their first record is also a nice impressions sounding thing. I think pomonkey on here knows a lot about the label and should be able to recommend some more R&B type tunes Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Gene-r Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 There's an excellent version of Tom Jones' "Never Give Away Love" by Ron Phillips on White Cliffs. The version by Tom Jones was the original B-side to "Stop Breaking My Heart". Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Kris Holmes Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 yep, there's some interesting stuff on the label, local LA stuff which is Matassa/Sehorn/Quezergue related, but also some stuff leased from other places (I think the Joe Haywood stuff is an example) essentially went under with Dover distribution.

Yeah, my kinda sound also mate. I don't think there is a comp specifically for the label. However, I'll keep my eye out. There is "Sehorn's Soul Farm" which is a double CD comp of those New Orlean's labels that Marshall Sehorn had a hand in ie White Cliffs, Sansu, Deesu, Tou-Sea etc. https://www.amazon.co...00781840&sr=1-1 Sample tracks here -- https://www.amazon.co...agSuffix=dp_img Some tracks on there that don't do it for me but some nice deeper ballads that do.

Harrogatesoul Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 Some crackers on this label as mentioned. Dover was a big player oon the distribution side. Not aware of any material being re-issued as Dave states. maybe the Ace guys can help out? Do seem to remember on here or on an auction John Manship stating he bought out the last remaining Dover stock??? Incidentally just picked up Joe Haywoods I Would If I Could/Warm & Tender Love.

Pomonkey Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 (edited) Yes big fan of White Cliffs, remember when put that Joe Wilson on a mix a few years back when it was an unknown and people went nuts for it as was muy evidenced by the ebay price on the next ones, different league than his other stuff, must admit to being a bit cheesy out sometimes and playing Chuck Cornish back to back with the Senator Jones on Shagg with the same backing, Matt did I trade you that Funky funky Football, sadly got one unheard and was rather let down that doesn't at all live up to the title (much as you and I both love Jesse Thomas I know), more importantly, there's 1 total belter of a title missing from the list above, flip of The Rocks, am sure know where have a spare of it filed away at home too......

Weingarden Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 Thanks, I've added it to the discography above. Do you perhaps know what the record is like? I'd call it a heavy jazz instrumental, with slightly soundtracky-sounding trumpet-led melody, busy rhythmic backing (guitar? harpsichord? something odd-sounding), full horn section, nice raw sax solo, and hard New Orleans-style drumming. Part 2 is the same with inexplicably added party/crowd noise. Cool record, but not something one would play at a dance party outside New Orleans itself. Might play at my bar gig or on the radio.

boba Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 busy rhythmic backing (guitar? harpsichord? something odd-sounding), if you hear something that sounds like a harpsichord in a soul song it's probably a clavinet: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clavinet Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Robbk Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 White Cliffs Records was a subsidiary of Dover Records. Most of the latter that I have seen have White Cliffs Music as their publisher. The distributorship, Dover Records, White Cliffs Records and White Cliffs Music must have been under the same umbrella and ownership, possibly with different co-owning partners in the different subsidiaries.
