This is at the afterparty of the Nashville Film festival premier of "The Wrecking Crew". The movie is about a group of session musicians in the mid sixties to early seventies in Los Angeles who worked on almost all of the music recorded during those years. My father, Al Casey, was a member of the wrecking crew, as way
Danny's father, Tommy Tedesco. Danny made this film to show people an era in music that few know about. This group of musicians (about 20) worked with Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Jan and Dean, The Beach Boys, Herb Albert, The Association, Sonny and Cher, The Mama and the Papas, I don't even know who all he played with. They did three to four sessions a day and usually two to three songs a session. Danny documented this accurately. He is going to send me a DVD when he gets a distributer.
We had a great time. Danny treated us like VIPs, including going in and out of the VIP lounge. Sara loved being treated like this.
