Dover
Records was a distributor for New Orleans labels founded by
Cosimo Matassa in 1965. Aaron Neville's "Tell It Like
It Is" (# 2 hit in 1967) was just too big for Matassa to handle
and the New Orleans banks were not about to help out. With distributors
not paying up and the banks turning down loans, the cash was
spread too thin. This ended Par-Lo and many of the other Dover-distributed
small labels soon thereafter. The company collapsed in 1968.
Many of the labels had the company's logo on the side of the
label.
