In 2011, Daryl Sanders gets the word from "all but one" of the surviving local A-listees who played on Blonde On Blonde---& made Galileo look like a Boy Scout, too much man, let it all hang out:

Maybe not the perfect thread for this, but today I learned about Barry Miles, who released a record as a 14 year old drum prodigy on Charlie Parker's record label (!), featuring his original bebop tunes:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sEqgfqTy-Mw
Then he switched to piano, and made fusion records with his *14 year old littler brother on drums* playing like Tony Williams:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HIZ_mEdhBs8
Then he was Roberta Flack's music director during the '80s/'90s, with his brother on drums sometimes I think. And apparently his brother Terry Silverlight is a very successful tv composer: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terry_Silverlight
Look at them go...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lzaMjBfUvec

https://immediatefamilyfilm.com/“I had been hesitant to make a follow up to "The Wrecking Crew". But when I was approached with the idea of "The Immediate Family", I didn't think twice. The Immediate Family consists of Danny 'Kootch' Kortchmar Guitar/Vocal, Leland Sklar Bass, Russ Kunkel on Drums, Waddy Wachtel Guitar/Vocal and Steve Postell Guitar/Vocal.”

A friend showed me this, which is pretty interesting, though the interviewer looks like a distracting cross between Paul Williams and George Lucas:

― Josh in Chicago, Friday, 19 January 2024 23:15 (two years ago)
Kunkel is okay but not revelatory. Wachtel is a legend just for his hairdo.
But Lee Muthaflippin Sklar? That dude gives me a frisson of gratitude every time I reflect on our collective good fortune that we get to co-exist with him. This story alone solidifies his place among the GOATs, where he put a non-functioning "shimmer" switch on his bass.

Yes, Lee Sklar seems like a great guy.

Cornell Dupree! was known as Mr 2500 for all the sessions he did -- mostly R&B, pop and jazz

Was wondering
― Litso Mystic (James Redd and the Blecchs), Tuesday, 15 October 2024 22:55 (one year ago)
I’ve always wondered if Cornell Dupree wrote the main riff on Bernard Purdie’s “Aretha”
― Heez, Wednesday, 16 October 2024 00:08 (one year ago)
Dupree and Purdie played together backing King Curtis in the late 60s so maybe ?
