A show at Melody Ranch, Glen Burnie, Maryland, was recorded by Bill Offenbacher with one song, Just Another Broken Heart later being released on the live compilation Shadows Of The Past (Copper Creek CCLP-0101) 1981.

The eight tracks cut at this session, were all featured on the In Person LP (King KLP-719) Nov 1960, with two singles released prior:-

• Finger Poppin' Time / Daybreak In Dixie (King 5384) Jul 1960
• Little Benny / Old Love Letters (King 5415) Oct 1960

Following on from the King session earlier in the day, the Stanleys were persuaded to record two additional tracks later that evening at the home of DJ Wayne Raney. The results were below par, but this didn't stop Starday coupling Come All Ye Tenderhearted on a 45 with Choo Choo Comin' (Starday 587) Apr 1962. The other track they recorded, a lack lustre version of Rank Stranger remained unreleased until it was unearthed on the 4×CD set The Early Starday/King Years, 1958-1961.
