I know some of them appeared on 2 Somerset LP's titled "Perspectives in percussion".

Also Rowland Bundock & Jim Rowles appear on the "Juntos" CD by The Nash Brothers. Tracks were from about 1954-1956. It's contemporary jazz (at least, so much as that term was known in that time). The CD houses the complete LP "The Brothers Nash" which was originally on the Liberty label, Plus 12 tracks from a couple earlier sessions.

Alvino Rey and Milt Holland are on the Dot LP "George Cates' Polynesian Percussion" (DLP 25355) It has not been released on CD yet, but the LP is worth seeking out IMHO. If interested, I would recommend the STEREO version. It's not exactly Exotica But it does have a unique sound. I would say it's a bit more "lounge" sounding. It has lots of slide guitar and interesting percussion. Novachord & flute are also featured. It was produced by Lawrence Welk & Released around 1963.

Some of these musicians also played for Henry Mancini, and appear on some of his LP's released from the late 50' to early 70's

Paul Horn, of course, did pretty well as a solo artist.

I'm sure there are more cases.
