Wrongcrowd Posted October 3, 2009 Share Posted October 3, 2009 Does anyone have any background info on the reasons that Dee Dee Warwick's "Funny How We Changed Places" on Private Stock was issued earlier on Musicor credited to Debra Anderson ? The tracks are exactly the same, and the flips side tracks are too, though the flip titles are different ?? Contractual maybe...... Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Dave Pinch Posted October 3, 2009 Share Posted October 3, 2009 (edited) dee dee warwick came out as dede swarchz on rca a year later in 1976. it was b side on private stock and a side on rca for some reason. these 2 labels play the same recording. debra anderson uses the same backing track but different vocalist to these ears dave Edited October 3, 2009 by dave pinch Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

I've summat else by her too on a Florida label? Hope this helps? Cheers Steve Edited October 3, 2009 by Steve Plumb Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Sjclement Posted October 3, 2009 Share Posted October 3, 2009 Prefer the Debra Anderson version meself Whats it go for? Don't see it as often as the Swarcht/Warwiick copies BTW Miss Swartch isMiss Warwicks real name Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Stillsoulin Posted October 3, 2009 Share Posted October 3, 2009 Yes i agree also, Debra Anderson is a different vocal and better in my opinion, she also had a 45 released on uk Seville which was a Drive (Florida) label release, but not in the same league.

The tracks are exactly the same, and the flips side tracks are too, though the flip titles are different ?? Contractual maybe...... Hi Cliff, Debra Anderson is the original recording and it is by Debra Anderson. Her original was played as a fairly new release at the Mecca (74). I've always believed the Dee Dee Schwarz/Warwick to be a cover, fairly soon after the original (a couple of months or so). Personally, I prefer the Dee Dee, but theres not much between 'em! Worth noting that, the Dee Dee Warwick also came out twice on Private stock, originally in 74 on 45,011 as DEE DEE and then in 75 on 45,033 as DEDE. I also have the original UK copy I bought when new! Like it! Sean Edited October 3, 2009 by Sean Hampsey Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Sean Hampsey Posted October 3, 2009 Share Posted October 3, 2009 Steve & Rob, the Drive / Seville Debra Anderson 45 you're referring to was "Where Do We Go From Here" / "I Can See Leaving In Your Eyes". I know, you're both thinking 'what a sad git'... sat at home worrying about such trivia on a Saturday night... ...but someone's got to do it!

I also have the original UK copy I bought when new! Like it! Sean Thanks for putting me right on the two releases....I've had a proper listen, and you're all right, it is is a different vocalist, but as Sean says, there's hardly anything between them. Too many years of loud music has obviously taken its toll on my poor old ears.. BTW.....My Private Stock copy is credited to DeDe Warwick, and not Dee Dee Warwick, though it has relese number 45,011, so it seems that there are at least 3 different Private Stock labels..... .....ok, I'll put my anorak away now...

Reg Scott Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 Prefer the Debra Anderson version meself Whats it go for? Don't see it as often as the Swarcht/Warwiick copies BTW Miss Swartch isMiss Warwicks real name They all go for about the same price usually about £40 - £60 deoending on condition. You're right though, the 'Debra Anderson' doesn't turn up nearly as often. I prefer the 'Schwartz' version on RCA which is also spelt Dede as opposed to Dee Dee and is , IMHO, a little more scarce than the 'Warwick' Private Stock releases (perhaps as noted above because there is more than one release on Private Stock. BTW SJ, how many Broon Ales had you had when you did the post - "Swarcht/Warwiick copies.." Regards... Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Guest Johnny Mack Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 Got to agree that Miss Anderson's version has the fine edge. Well remember this being the version first played at Blackpool Mecca. 75p a go to those with the sense to buy it at the time/ Miss Warwick was moonlightling under her maiden name for the RCA release whilst under contract elsewhere - possibly an attempt to disguise what could otherwise be construed as fundamental breach of contract. Great record though - all versions ! Take care John Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Guest Eridu Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 Interesting... I didn't know about the Debra Anderson version. I've got an extra copy of the 'DeDe Warwick' version on Private Stock if anyone is looking for one... Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
