Glolite Records

William E. "Bill" Glore's Glo-Lite record label and recording studio was located on 625 Chelsea Avenue in Memphis, Tennessee. Although Glo-Lite record labels often showed different adresses, it seems the studio was (at least until 1972) located on Chelsea Ave. Other adresses shown on labels included: 760 Los Angeles - Memphis, Tennessee (Glolite #103) and 1366 Cherry Road - Memphis, Tennessee (Glolite #95), 4081 Jackson - Memphis, Tennessee (Glolite #98). Both the label and the studio were established in 1968 by Glore.

In addition to engineering the sessions and producing many of the Glolite records, Glore offered his studio for custom recording. Martin Hawkins produced a session at Glolite when recording Charlie Feathers, Malcolm Yelvington, and Red Hadley (brother of Jay Hadley, who also recorded for Glolite) in 1974. The results were released on a Shelby County EP #001.
