When
the Midas touch Hall Of Fame producer/songwriting team of Jerry
Leiber and Mike Stoller launched their own record labels—Daisy
and Tiger—in 1963, the quality of the ensuing singles was
a given. They were bound to be knockouts. From Dee Dee Warwick
and Bessie Banks to Alvin Robinson and Roy Buchanan, everything
on the label was dripping with the magi sc Leiber & Stoller
had woven so well with previous chart-topping acts like the Coasters,
the Drifters and the Clovers. Who could resist the chance to poke
around the backwaters of Leiber & Stoller country to re-discover
the unmitigated joys of Bob Moore & The Temps, the Lovejoys
and Moody & The Deltas?
The Daisy/Tiger Records Story features every single track
released by Daisy and Tiger, all from the original master tapes,
plus—for the first time ever—three previously unissued
alternate versions.
