Aaron, I wrote a book on the US Navy Steel Band and I can provide all the names of the signatures if you like. Email me at amartin@inverhills.edu. This album was a reprint and was originally recorded in 1959 and released in 1960 with the reprint cover you have released in 1962.
A friend gave me this a few years ago, and I just dug it up again. This album is not listed in the history (linked) by leader Skip Poole.
I can't read who all the names are, but I can make out a few first and/or last names. I'm wondering who all the pannists that signed this are? The one that stands out to me is Franz Grissom, which is also dates as 16 Sept 1963.
Check it out and see if you can fill me in on a little bit of the history of this treasure! Thanks!
