The Chapparal Brothers
Posted: 20 May 2000 5:39 pm
As far as the Charpparel Brothers go, I don't know too much about them.
John and Paul were apparently from Mississippi. I don't know which one,but I have heard that one ofthe brothers was married to an actress/model named Sheryl Poole (sp).
Bassist Don 'Buck' Felts told me :
<BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica">quote:</font><HR><SMALL>I first worked with them when they put together their show for Lake Tahoe. Don Howard who was booking Jerry Inman some at the time also booked them. He recommended me for the
gig. After the Lake Tahoe gig I did a recording session with them for MGM Records that Al DeLory (Glen Campbell's producer) produced. I backed them up again a couple times when I was working with Butch
Hendrix at the Parrish House (in Hawthorne) in '73. They also worked the Pal a couple times when I was there.
The last I heard (several years ago) they had left the business and moved back to Mississippi, and that one of them went back to school and became a veterinarian.</SMALL><HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
Ihave also heard that in 1972 fiddler Billy Armstrong worked with them while also working solo.
Any ideas?
