Summary

Music lovers will be astonished at the influence The Wrecking Crew wielded over rock and pop music in the early 1960s and early 1970s. These unsung instrumentalists were the de-facto backing band on hit records by The Beach Boys, Phil Spector, Frank Sinatra, Nancy Sinatra, Sonny & Cher, Elvis, The Monkees and many more. These dedicated musicians brought the flair and musicianship that made the American "West Coast Sound" a dominant cultural force around the world.
