KaHill Recording Co. Des Plaines, Ill.

1957

The Kahill Recording Company made its debut in May 1955 at 732 Center Street, Des Plaines, Illinois.  The diskery was headed by Bettye Kummerle, who had been a song writer for many years

San Antonio-born Doris Drew was one of the most widely heard voices heard on U.S. TV and radio in the 1950s. In addition, she etched many dozens of tracks for major labels (MGM and Mercury), but most of singles had a short shelf life and then faded into oblivion.

Telldell Music

Velvet Records 101

Los Angeles, Calif.

Late sixties ?

Most of the releases on Velvet Records are from Deloris Ealy, who was managed by Aaron Johnson, head of Velvet Productions in L.A.   It seems that the label was reactivated in the late seventies for several releases by The Kenyattas backing Arlene Bell or other artists.  

At that time, Deloris Ealy was with Big Vick Productions (Victor Green in Oakland, Calif.) for at least one release "Deloris Is Back With Jerome And His Band / Don't Be Afraid" (Big Vick Hammond #401).

Telldell Music is the publisher, a name usually associated with Detroit music and Odell Bailey, but Dennis Talley (Stag Distributors Records) was perhaps also involved with the publishing company. ?

Born Charles Felton in Atlanta, Georgia in 1934.  

 

 In the late 1950s, Bill Lowery (head of NRC) hired Felton away from an addressograph company, and Felton printed sleeves for 45s and promotional materials for NRC.  Felton hung around the studios in his spare time, where Ray Stevens, Jerry Reed and Joe South were backing the NRC Records artists, and became a recording engineer

 

In 1959 and 1960 he tried his hand at recording.  His first session was produced by Ray Stevens (Viva Records) and he cut two records for Zeno Goss' Thunder/Thunder Int'l.Records.

Best known for his work as producer, (notably for Elvis Presley, from 1966 to 1977),  Felton died of a stroke in 1981, four years after Elvis' death.
