The Corrie Folk Trio and Paddie Bell
1963—Waverley ELP 129 EP

   
To my knowledge the above six track EP is the group's first solo release. "The Corrie Folk Trio and Paddie Bell" releases are more than a little confusing.
Four track EPs with the same catalog number (ELP 129) with at least 2 different covers were subsequently released.

only on original Six track release and on the self-titled Waverly LP
*also on "The Corrie Folk Trio with Paddie Bell"— the Elektra LP
**also on "The Corrie Folk Trio with Paddie Bell"—both the Waverley and Elektra LPs.
To make matters even more confusing the tracks that appear on this EP (as well as the “Burds” EPs) that subsequently appeared on the Elektra albums were rerecorded. According to Bill Smith of The Corrie Folk Trio, "The Electra recordings were re arranged to repair the damage of earlier poor recordings by Waverly records. The three Folk Songs for the Burds were unbelievably bad!! An embarrassment all round. They simply had to be redone. Very few of the original tracks were deemed to be satisfactory for the American market. PS there ARE two different versions of some tracks on the "Burds" EP's. For the reasons given above."

Special thanks to Bill Smith, Paul Franklin and Tom Beveridge for their contributions to this Corrie Folk Trio discography.
