Even asked my mother, and she couldn't think of any names.

Thanks for looking into it for me...I couldn't find a complete lineup of band member either.

Could the auto on the pink paper be "Bama Young"? Though I haven't the foggiest, who he is/was.

Geez....I spend a couple of hours looking for a line-up of band members and came up with nothing.

It's amazing to me that Wikipedia doesn't have a list of Stone Canyon Band members. They have lists of almost everything imaginable except for musicians who played with Ricky Nelson's band.

I found the following...which does not match up with any of the autographs including Bobby Neal, so possibly this was more or a touring band as opposed to a recording band???
The Stone Canyon Band started out as Tom Brumley, Allen Kemp, Pat Shanahan and Randy Meisner, (Later additions included: Tim Cetera, Steve Love, Denis Larden , Ty Grimes and Jay DeWitt White).

I'm not surprised you're having such a hard time because Nelson had a constant revolving door of sessions musicians that backed him up. Try googling "session musician" and Ricky Nelson and you'll likely find more. Id do it for you but i'm on my way out the door, though i love this stuff and would rather stay and hunt. One auto I do know is Pat Upton, former lead vocalist for Spiral Staircase. I know he was a session for Nelson.

According to a record book I have the Jordanaires also backed him up.
