Information request: Tom Dale Gospel trombone solo LP

Hello all,

I'm doing some research into Gospel trombonists, those who fell from the tree of Homer Rodeheaver (Billy Sunday's song leader), that include, among others, Cliff Barrows, Joe Talley, Sam Saltar, Marcy Tinger, and, of course, Bill Pearce.

I've recently acquired an LP by trombonist Tom Dale, titled In Session. The album was probably recorded in 1976 and has nine tracks; it was manufactured by Sacred Manuscripts Record Productions that was located in Oklahoma City.

The tracks are:

That's For Me
Spread a Little Love
Nobody Knows
Jesus Is All the World
Gentle Shepherd
It Won't Be Long
Poor Warfaring [sic] Stranger
Little Flowers
Joshua

The album has the following credits:

Produced by Jim van Hook
Arranged by Jerry Nelson
Cover photo by H. Neil Gillespie
Recorded by Mark V
Engineer Bill Meldin
Mixdown Applewood Sound
Engineer S. Dudzik

But there is very little on the album about Tom Dale, apart from a paragraph of superlatives about what a great player he is (and he is a fine player).

I would like to know if anyone knows Tom Dale and, if so, if I could be put in contact with him. I'm interested to know how this album came about and what other kind of Gospel trombone work he may have done. See the album cover image below.

With thanks,

-Douglas Yeo

That photo looks a lot like the icon that used to show up on the OTJ.
