OPALS on Okeh Records

[woodward]

To my knowledge, the legendary OPALS from East Chicago recorded a total of 3 records on the OKEH label. I have two of the three in near mint condition,
7188 Does It Matter b/w Tender Lover
7202 You Can't Hurt Me No More b/w You're Gonna Be Sorry

The third one I need for my collection. It is:
7224 Restless Days b/w I'm So Afraid

If anyone has any idea where I might locate 7224 for a fair price, I would appreciate you sending me a private email. Does anyone have these three
in their collections? Great girl group.

I have all 3, [[bought them new, when they were out), and I also have their first single, from 1962. Beltone 2025 [["Hop, Skip & Jump" b/w "Love", and their first Okeh release, "Finders Keepers, Losers Weepers" [[Okeh 7184), singing over Clifford Davis' instrumental [[sometimes listed as: "Clifford Davis and The Opals, sometimes listed as: "Clifford Davis - Vocal by The Opals").

Here is the Beltone record:

What a sound those girls had! I don't have any singles of theirs and I'm not looking for any
I only have a few songs on compilation disc. They recorded on other labels too, didn't they?
I can't get over how many great groups just vanished before getting their due...

They were fine too!

The opals were a great group who didn't get nearly enough attention.

Remember that The Opals were the background singers for Betty Everett's "Shoop, Shoop Song [[It's In HIs Kiss)". I'm not positive but I think "You're Gonna Be Sorry" was on the Okeh label.

Is that the same Opals group on the Laurie label singing Does It Matter?

Restless Days [[Soul Soul Soul Volume 6) and I'm So Afraid [[Okeh A Northern Soul Obsession) are available on CD comps.

No! The Opals on Laurie were a male group. They never sang a song titled "Does it Matter". THAT wassung by The Okeh girls group, and released on Okeh Records. It was written by Billy Butler and first sung by his Enchanters.
