The Wrecking Crew were the go to backing band for so many in Los Angeles from the early 60’s to the mid 70’s. It’s amazing how many who went onto to performers in their own right. So much beautifully crafted rock, pop and R&B.

Don’t think we’ve met. Welcome. He certainly was. I’ve included him here, with Wichita Linesman. He was backing on many others.

I understood that Glenn Campbell did a huge amount of backing work, but I wasn’t aware of him being part of the wrecking crew 😊

He was but branched out in his own around 1969. Leon Russell was a one time member as well. Its surprising who was a member.
