Ricky Allen - Tamboo is the later, funkier cut, the AGE version is a different, but also good version (in an earlier r&B style).

Joe Simon came out on Dot as well if my memory serves me, same cut I think.

Sorry Jason, I Don't know, thought Irral 1st, but wasn't aware of band credits on one version & not on another ? :huh:

You learn something everyday.

Here's a pic of my copy.

I believe that the Irral 45 was released in 1963 and must have sold well enough in California to warrant a 2nd press + a national distribution deal with Dot (probably a few months after its Irral issue at the very end of 63 or early 64).

The 45 raised Joe's profile enough for Irral to land him a record contract with VJ.

Irral Berger (who ran the Irral label) wrote both “My Adorable One” & “Say (That Your Love Is True)” that Joe had released on a VJ 45 in August 1964 (his 2nd VJ outing I think). Of course, we don't know if Irral Berger actually wrote those songs or if he just took credit for them as part of the deal that resulted in Joe cutting them.

"My Adorable One" was cut by a number of other artists & a few versions sold well, so Irral must have made a bit of money from it down the years.
