DORIS/SVENSSONS DORIS 4E 054-34039 M (-69) MONO SWEDEN


 An artist today mostly known by jazz/soul connaisseurs for her only solo album "Did You Give The World Some Love Today, Baby"  https://monolover.blogspot.com/2023/09/dorisdid-you-give-world-some-love-today.html . This is a collection of some of her earlier 45 tracks. A-side with five covers of international hits - "Your Mother Should Know", "Boom Bang-A-Bang", "Never My Love", "Long Long Road", "Think It All Over" plus the Hungarian song "Kicsit Szomorkás" - all sung in Swedish to very well arranged orchestral background. B-side with six cuts sung in English, one with the band Dandys and five with the group Plums (for which check rear sleeve below). That is to me more interesting. The three covers - "Go Back To Daddy", "A Lovers Concerto" and "The Loco-Motion" all works well, but what really get me going are the tracks  "You Made A Fool Of Me" and "Wouldn't That Be Groovy". The former with its psych ending and the latter in the rather special blue eyed soul style that made her solo album fly. So either you're into sixties schlager pop or odd soul numbers you might find something here. All cuts are the original mono recordings with tophole audio and very good to the ears. To my knowledge this was the only vinyl release, though the Swedish 2013 2xCD issue of "Did You Give The World Some Love Today Baby" (RPM Internat RETROD 925) came with all her singles 1966-69, including the ones here, as bonus. Vinyl had label as shown here in a thin matt cover.
