Popis - THE DORE STORY - POSTCARD FROM EAST LOS:
'Postcard from East Los Angeles 1958-1964'. A one-man operation run from Vine Street, Hollywood, for more than two decades by former entertainer Lew Bedell, the Dor label launched the careers of Phil Spector and Jan & Dean, releasing a wide range of early LA rock, doo wop and soul. Dor began as a subsidiary of Era, a Hollywood label best known for mainstream pop hits such as Chanson DAmour and The Wayward Wind. In 1958, it got off to a flying start with To Know Him Is To Love Him by the Teddy Bears, a worldwide hit, followed by Jan & Deans Baby Talk. The major labels had lost touch with the street and it was largely left to LAs scattering of independents to set teenagers turntables spinning on the west coast. Some went in the blink of an eye but Dore stayed, moving seamlessly from rock and pop into soul music in the mid-60s. Herb Alpert, Shel Talmy and Mike Curb were just a few who brought their first productions to Dor and there are some interesting connections: aside from Spector and Jan & Dean, the Walker Brothers, and Vince Taylor all come into it to create an engrossing snapshot of the times. 25 of the 28 tunes on this first volume of the Dor catalogue appear on legitimate CD for the first time, including previously unissued rockabilly from cult figure Joel Scott Hill, two ultra-rare rock instrumentals by Bobby Fry, some exquisite doo wop, and early teen rockers from John Maus of the Walker Brothers. Compiled and annotated by Rob Finnis, the deluxe and generous package includes a 17,000 word 48-page newly-researched profile of Dor and Lew Bedell, artist biogs, and many never-before-seen photos and memorabilia.
