[Dan Van Landingham]

I have a cheapie LP that has Tyler's "Deck of Cards" on it.I was of the 
impression that Bill McCall,who
ran 4 Star Records,owned the recording.I have a slew of these cheapie LPs of 
records(on Design and
several other labels)that also featured Patsy Cline,Jimmy Dean,Maddox Brothers 
and Sisster Rose and
Charlie Ryan(of "Hot Rod Lincoln" fame-that one is on one of the albums)and 
several other C&W art-
ists).I have at least a dozen of them in my collection.I grew up on the stuff 
alkthough I'm known as a long
time jazz fan.By the way,can anyone of you tell me of Bill McCall and 4 Star?I 
learned a little via a 1980s
biography on Patsy Cline by Ellis Nassour.I read it back in 1987.

There are three photos of Stan Ross at the fineprintheroes.com site, at this
url:
http://fineprintheroes.com/main.php?g2_return=%2Fmain.php&g2_formUrl=%2Fmain
.php&g2_authToken=9fed76a09aa5&g2_view=search.SearchScan&g2_form%5BformName%
5D=search_SearchBlock&g2_form%5BsearchCriteria%5D=stan+ross&g2_form%5BuseDef
aultSettings%5D=1

- including one photo with Dave Gold of Gold Star Studios, with an
explanation of how the name "Gold Star" came from Stan Ross' & Dave Gold's
names.

The first hit record Stan Ross is said to have engineered was "Deck of
Cards" by T. Texas Tyler - so he's 78-era, too.

This site may not have the best short bio but it'll do:

Not that much about Stan..I presume he wasn't the same Stan Ross aka Stanley

Ralph Ross who co-created "Chaos" (Arbogast & Ross) and then went on to
write 
and direct TV shows?
