Celebrities - i choose you

Susan barrett - whats it gonna be

Virgil murrey - i still care

Bobby hill - to the bitter end

Emenanns orch - bird walkin,

Never understood how anyone could prefer the Susan Barrett version over Dusty Springfield's version, even if the Susan Barrett is the original. Remember many years ago, hearing Richard Searling playing Dusty Springfield at Va-Va's. The next night at Blackpool Mecca Ian Levine played the Susan Barrett , introducing it with the words "unlike other places we play the black American original". Of course unknown to him at the time Susan Barrett was also white!

I'm no expert Peter, mines on the Atco with Hi-Diddly Dee Dum Dum on the other side, I think they are different versions with yours being the earlier one.

We've discussed this before and I pointed out that Dusty Springfield's version of 'What's It Gonna Be' WAS the original version.

The truth is that the 45s were released at almost the same time.

 

Susan Barrett's version may have been issued in August or September 1967 (I'm not certain) and Dusty's version was issued in September 1967 (UK) and November 1967 (US).  Even if we could be sure that Susan's version was actually released before Dusty's, it would only have been by a few weeks and that doesn't make Dusty's a cover version because a few weeks wouldn't have been enough time.  And why on earth would Dusty cover an obscure B side of a flop US record?

Dusty's version was already recorded and it can be considered as the original version because it was produced by Jerry Ragovoy (uncredited) who wrote the song with Mort Shuman.  They recorded the track in New York (Dusty's vocals may have been added to the track in London) and the sesssion was directed by Gary Sherman.

 

Sherman had previously worked on some Barrett sessions for RCA so it's likely that he pitched the song to her or to her producer Paul Robinson.  At that stage there was probably a guide vocal by a demo singer on the Ragovoy track, it would be interesting to know who it was.

 

Personally, I think Dusty's version is far stronger, it's better sung and more soulful and of course it has those great backing vocals.

Paul
