Cowpoke,
Here's that 45 that I own:

Cornbread and Chitlings / Melodrama – KEESTONE FAMILY SINGERS. This 45 is on the original CALLIOPE Label # 6505. The Everly Brothers, Glen Campbell, and Carole King sing on this rare 45. The record is distributed by Warner Brothers Records. (EX-12698/EX-12705.) Glen Hardin wrote “Cornbread and Chitlings.” The other song “Melodrama” was written by “King/Goffin.” No date is listed.

Phil and Don started their own record company called CALLIOPE. To be honest, CALLIOPE was really mostly Don's side adventure. He wanted to do something very different, far from the Everly sound. Using the name Adrian Kimberly he recorded three singles for CALLIOPE. Only the first release ''POMP AND CIRCUMSTANCES'' - ''BLACK MOUNTAIN STOMP'' (Calliope 6501) found any success. The others were soon lost in obscurity. Phil too recorded for CALLIOPE. He teamed up with Glen Campbell and Carole King (The KEESTONE FAMILY SINGERS) and recorded ''CORNBREAD AND CHITLINGS'' - ''MELODRAMA'' (Calliope 6505).

This record had to been recorded in the early 60’s time frame. The release date is 1962. This information came from The Everly Brothers Website. This recording falls under the “studio session days” for Glen Campbell.

If you ever come across this, I highly recommend picking it up!

Great link about Al de Lory Arlw!

Sorry can't help you with that Gordon Terry album.

Here's an article that confirms Glen's involvement in a group called the Keestone Singers, with Phil Everly and Carole King.

The below is a great link on Al Delory. Donna-don't think they actually broke up, it was more of a mutual directional change in their careers. As far as I know they were always very good friends.

So Al, would have been 84 on Friday. I can't believe I missed that piece of news of his passing two years ago.

Wow.
You should open a museum. I have got about 20 singles, so it won't take long to catch up.

Mike,
I think this might blow you ALL away!!!

My collection spans over 39 years with albums/CD's/promos/imports/radio shows/compilations/Christmas related/DJ copies/acetates and DVD's and this is just records/DVDs and CD's---that comes to just a little over 1,500 records, CD's and DVD's!!! All is documented and numbered on the computer so they are easy to locate!

My 45's RPMS are closing in at 600! That's a LOT OF MR. GLEN CAMPBELL

Some of these INCLUDE cassettes/VHS's/Piano Rolls/8-tracks/reel to reels/4-tracks and etc.

What I don't have documented are the memorabilia of 39 years worth. A lot of time/and $ went into this and I wouldn't trade it for anything! Just re-did the wall of Glen in my den so might have to post some new photos!
