Default 2004 Monty Carlo rear rotor wont come off!!

I have the back right caliper off (including the bracket). In theory, the rotor should drop/slide right off. Perhaps requiring the use of some wiggling, maybe some force from a hammer.

MY problem.... Even though the e-brake is NOT engaged, the drum of the rotor and the e-brake shoes are making contact and creating a huge problem. Ideas welcome.

I spent the night cursing and pounding those old rotors. They move, just not off the stupid e-brake shoes. I got LUCKY and got ONE rotor off on the driver side. The passenger side is still bound up. I have checked the shop book and all the resources I can think of. I am tapped out.
