The Wrecking Crew


This may just blow your mind
...is that 60's jargon, or what?...when you think you have heard it all, along comes this docu that will knock your socks off...OK, enuff of that...the music...the sounds...the beats...the guitar licks...all done by a group of studio musicians...NOT BY THE FAMOUS BANDS!...it was the era...The Beach Boys, the Phil Spector records, the Association, the Mamas and Papas, the _____...you name 'em, the sound tracks were done by these OTHER dudes, and one gal...who did the music for any of the Sonny & Cher hits?...the Wrecking Crew...perhaps, 20 of them...maybe more, maybe less...the mantra was 'You need a gig?...come join us'...there were 4 or 5 stable ones...that played on most...

Hal Blaine on the drums...Carol Kaye (the ONE gal) on electric bass...Glen Campbell ( yes that one) on guitar...Leon Russell on keyboards...Tommy Tedesco on guitar...yea, that's who did the sounds of those famous Beach Boys hits...on the vinyls...the 'stars' did the vocals, I presume...the real trick for them and the famous bands...was to recreate the music for the live shows...the concerts...

The band...started to dissolve away...when the 'famous' bands...started doing their REAL music...Crosby Stills and Nash led the revolution...

Find this gem on YouTube...and it will keep your interest for sure...just when you thought you knew everything...

The Phoenix Suns came in to LaLa and finished off the Lakers...Devin Booker hit for 47 points!...and the Show is over for the James crew...who, I lost so much respect for...in his last 2 games he left early...LeBron didn't stay around to shakes hands with the victors...off he went to pout in the locker room...classless...man, I'd get right into his face...

The mighty Padres did make it home...to take on the Mets...won, in a thriller, 4-3...Jr hit another tater, that was nearly caught, but not...broke their 4 game road losing streak, but kept alive their now 11 game winning streak at home...

Former VP Pence had a bit of a commentary on his former boss, trump...that 'he and I will never see, eye to eye, on the Jan 6 attempt at...a coup'...well, I added the latter part of that...I mean, donny q had them going after Pence...oh my...been better, if the group of forevers, turned course and got donny on a rail and rode him out of DC...ha ha...'O Brother, Where Art Thou'...like...

While I am at that...another example of not only some body else's music, but some body else's voices...in that film...

The BEST album of the day...man, I am not even going to go there...what is real and what is not?...

Gonna try golf again this am...wish me luck...
