WHY TV & FILM FOR AN INDIE NEWS PUBLICATION
YOU ASK?

The motion picture and film industries are multi-billion dollar businesses which not only need actors and actresses, scripts and producers and directors - but music. Television and movies would be absolutely boring were it not for the music that keeps them exciting and gives them depth.
In addition to this, there are many musical documentaries and other programs which bring to us the details of the history of some of the people who paved the way for the rest of us musicians to make it in this business. Like The story in the next column about the
WRECKING CREW and Mr. Denny Tedesco.

As we are constantly evolving here at damngoodtunes.com
we strive to bring you the reader everything you may want to know and some of that which you should know but didn't know where to look.
Well, so here we go again climbing another mountain. Grab your pick axe and hike along!

Very likely to become one of the most important film documentaries of all time, THE WRECKING CREW is a must-see for all musicians, songwriters, producers and especially for all people who love music!

In the 1960's there existed a group of superior musicians who played on literally thousands of songs and hundreds of number one singles. They were the men and one woman who formed the " Wrecking Crew ", a tight-knit family of the best musicians ever assembled in a recording studio. Producer Denny Tedesco has spent more than half his life on this epic film and knows the story better than anyone else may ever tell it - for you see Denny is the son of one of the un- disputed greatest guitar players of all time, Wrecking Crew icon- Tommy Tedesco. Surrounded by the likes of Carol Kaye on bass and Hal Blaine on drums, this unique orchestra was the best there ever was and it's unlikely that anyone or any group would ever again create such love, such synergy and passion for the music as the members of the Wrecking Crew. Please click on the ad for the Wrecking Crew Film and help support one of the most important projects in the history of music. I would like to leave you with this incredible quote from Denny Tedesco that he had learned from his father, Tommy Tedesco..... "My father used to say there were reasons to take a job. It had to have one of these things: 1: Connections to the future / 2: learning experience /3: money / 4: just for fun. If it didn't have any of these you could walk away." Written by Bruce Maier
