THE LITTLE DIPPERS
7” 45

NO high priced ‘Buy It Now’!...LOW start!.....NO Reserve!

ORIGINAL single issued in Norway from 1960. Recorded for the US University label. Record in excellent condition - hardly any sign of play. Background to this rare 45 is:
When Harold Sadler, Little Rock, Arkansas Chevrolet dealer, decided to start a record company (University) and approached Buddy Killen about helping him cut some sides Killen remembered that tune; “Forever” he called it. The session was for Smilin’ Eddie Hill, a sometime singer and country DJ. With two songs in the can and 20 minutes to spare, Buddy showed his ode to those studio musicians present: Floyd Cramer (piano), Hank Garland (guitar), Buddy Harmon (drums) Kelso Herston (guitar), Bob Moore (bass), and the Anita Kerr Singers. Wrote Killen: “We made one false start and had time to make a final take and the session was over.” ‘Two By Four,’ an instrumental track, featuring Kelso Herston in the style of Duane Eddy was to be the top side. Within days, it was apparent that Buddy Killen had a hit on his hands; a hit with the “B” side, “Forever.” Dick Clark called Buddy saying he wanted the “group” to be on his “American Bandstand.” Although others were assembled to tour as the Little Dippers, the actual voices heard on “Forever” were that of Anita Kerr and her behind-the-scene singers; tenor - Gil Wright (1930 - April 30, 2017), baritone - Louis Nunley (October 15, 1931 – October 26, 2012), alto - Dorothy "Dottie" Dillard (August 3, 1923 – May 6, 2015).
