Episode 20 - Denny Tedesco, Director of "The Wrecking Crew"

 

On today's episode, Jamie, Angelo, and Michael are joined by director and producer Denny Tedesco to talk about his recently released film "The Wrecking Crew" which takes a in-depth look at the lives and careers of the studio musicians who made up the legendary group of session artists in Los Angeles during the late 50s' through the early 1970's know as The Wrecking Crew. Denny and the gang discuss the legacy of these musicians and their incredible impact during the infancy of rock and roll music. Playing on songs by artists like The Beach Boys, The Righteous Brothers, Sonny and Cher, Simon & Garfunkel, The Ronettes, The Mamas and the Papas, and countless others, the musicians that became known as The Wrecking Crew unknowingly influenced every artist that came after them. Musicians like Tommy Tedesco, Carol Kaye, Hal Blaine, and dozens more paved the way for the rock musicians who followed. Join the KCRO team for this trip through rock and roll history with their special guest, Denny Tedesco. All this and much much more on this week's Keep Calm and Rock On Experience.
