Illustration: From left to right. A laptop is open with music notation
on the screen. Two books, one open and one closed, are wrapped in a
banner that reads “Libraries Rock!” A saxophone, double bass, and
trumpet are playing music on their own in front of a pile of books. The
saxophone is wearing a green fedora.
We will be reading DB 74638 The Wrecking Crew: The Inside Story of Rock and Roll’s Best-Kept Secret by Kent Hartman.
Annotation: Music-industry insider profiles the Los Angeles-area studio musicians known as the Wrecking Crew, who in the 1960s and '70s secretly played instruments on such hits as "California Dreamin'" and "Bridge over Troubled Water." Discusses group members Glen Campbell, Leon Russell, and others who forged their own successful careers. Contains some strong language. 2012.
