The Whispers [2022] - The Doré Singles [MTI] (Full Album)


A new compilation today "The Doré Singles" from The Whispers with a selection of their Doré singles A and B sides. Despite the title, it is not their whole Doré catalogue as many of the B sides were instrumentals with the only vocal song which is not included is "Needle In A Haystack" which is one of their best.

However, whilst checking the listing the track "Shake It, Shake It" is not "Shake It, Shake It" as it should be a vocal and the track included is an instrumental. I think all the others are correct.
 
Track Listing:

01 - As I Sit Here [Doré #740] 1965-07 A side
02 - Shake It, Shake It [Doré #740] 1965-07 B side
02 - ?
03 - I Was Born When You Kissed Me [Doré #758] 1966-02 A side
04 - You Can't Fight What's Right [Doré #792] 1967-07 B side
05 - You Got a Man on Your Hands [Doré #792] 1967-07 A side
06 - It Only Hurts for a Little While [Doré #724] 1964-11 A side
07 - Dr. Love [Doré #751] 1965-11 A side
Written by group member Nicholas Caldwell and covered by Bobby Sheen on Capitol in 1966 which was huge in NS circles at The Twisted Wheel.
08 - The Dip [Doré #735] 1965-06 A side
09 - Never Again [Doré #729] 1965-01 A side
10 - Take a Lesson from the Teacher [Doré #768] 1966-02 A side

By my reckoning they released nine singles on the label between 1964-67, so there are eight tracks missing, all but one though are instrumentals: 

The Happy One [Doré #724] B side inst.
(previously. released as by Billy Joe & The Checkmates titled as "Bossville")
Slow Jerk [Doré #729] B side inst.
Weirdo [Doré #735] B side inst.
Lonely Avenue [Doré #751] B side inst.
Walkin' The Fat Man [Doré #758] B side inst.
Claire DeLooney [Doré #768] B side inst.
Needle In A Haystack [Doré #972] A side
Shake It, Shake It [Doré #740] 1965-07 B side
Waltz For Young Lovers [Doré #994] B side inst.
