'WRECKING CREW' IS A TRIBUTE TO LEGACY OF UNKNOWN MUSICAL GIANTS

The Wrecking Crew: circa 1962, depicting a set-up used only once, with the drums up-front.
From front to back & left to right the players are; Don Randi, Al Delory, Carole Kaye, Bill Pitman, Tommy Tedesco, Irv Rubin, Roy Canton, Jay Migliori, Hal Blaine, Steve Douglas and Ray Pohlman. Jack Nitzsche's son is next to Hal Blaine.
