1963- "Everyday's A Holiday"

.....Before reading this post about a Tri-Phi Records release, I'd recommend first reading the February 2, 2012 post about Wreg Tracey because it briefly explains the label's connection to Motown.

.....I haven't been able to find any biographical information about the Ervin Sisters. When Gwen Gordy's three labels were absorbed in the Motown group, the Ervin Sisters didn't survive as an act, but I haven't found if they joined any of the vocal groups around at the time. These are the only two releases credited to them.

• -N/A- "CHANGING BABY" (The Ervin Sisters)
• -N/A- b/w "PLEASE DO IT RIGHT" (The Ervin Sisters)
• original source: 7" Tri-Phi Records TP1014 (US) 07/14/62

.....and the object of today's post:

• 02:38 "EVERYDAY'S A HOLIDAY" (Thomas Kemp, Robert White)
• -N/A- b/w "WHY I LOVE HIM" (Betty Ervin, Phyllis Ervin, Harvey Fuqua)
• original source: 7" Tri-Phi Records TP1022 (US) 01/63 or 03/63

.....If, as was common in this period, all four tracks were recorded at the same session, then this should precede the Kim Weston entry. All I have is a vague release date. I would be more concerned about placement except that there is some question as to whether this would be considered seasonal let alone a Christmas song. Many accepted Christmas songs don't mention the holiday or even anything related to it, so this choice is definitely subjective. Judge for yourself, if this Youtube link is still working:
