Flips (Philadelphia) (Little Joey & The) probable error;

by Joey (w Male/Female Group) – Our Own Little World, ’60 (Joy 243)

by Joey (w Female Group) – My First Love Letter (S.W.A.K.), ’60 (Joy 243)

 

After hearing these sides (see comment for link), there are auditory differences between ‘Joey’ and ‘Little Joey.’  The male part of the backing on the a-side, does not sound like the ‘Flips’ either.

 

The Flips originated as the ‘Elads’ with Jimmy Dilks and in the early 60s, Joey Hall replaced Dilks and the group became the Flips.

• The fact ‘Joey’ and ‘Little Joey & The Flips’ both recorded for the Joy label (while 2 years apart) has confused/mixed up the artist accreditation.
