Chris hat bereits eruieren können, dass die Mitglieder der Lancers Jerry Meacham, Dick Burr, Bob Porter und Corky Lindgren hießen. Dick Burr verstarb laut Mitteilung seiner Gattin Dolores im Jahre 1998. Corky Lindgren zog es nach seiner Scheidung nach Samoa, wo er anfang der Neunzigerjahre verstarb. Auch Jerry Meacham verstarb als seine Tochter Suzanna 8 Jahre alt war. Bob Porter, der Einzige noch Überlebende der Lancers, wanderte zu einem mir derzeit unbekannten Zeitpunkt nach Guatemala aus. Ihr größter Hit war wohl "Sweet Mama Tree Top Tall", wobei Text und Musik von dem Mitglied der Lancers Jerry Meacham stammen.
Bereits bei CAPITOL wurden die Lancers auch als Begleitgruppe für Stars wie Kay Starr und später bei CORAL für Teresa Brewer eingesetzt. Es folgt die 45 RPM-Disco ihrer Solo-Aufnahmen.
