If you listened to the West Coast Sound of popular music in the 1960s and 1970s
you might be surprised to know that many of the hits (regardless of who sung
them) have one thing in common: The Wrecking Crew.
From Sinatra, Nat King Cole, The Beach Boys, Sonny & Cher, The Monkees,
The Byrds (the list goes on and on) much of their background music was not
performed by them but by a talented group of musicians known only as The
Wrecking Crew.
if a song needed an extra 'oomph', driving beat or musical accompaniment The
Wrecking Crew could always be counted on to deliver.
Magnolia Home Entertainment
presents the musicians behind the music with its The Wrecking Crew! DVD
documentary that spotlights the unsung heroes of popular music.
Extras include over 6 hours of deleted scenes focusing
on the talented individuals who put the 'pop' in popular music.
