‘Wrecking Crew’ Documentary Director Rebuts Legendary Bassist Carol Kaye’s Complaints, After She Knocks Rock Hall Induction (and Him)
Reacting to bassist Carol Kaye citing him while knocking her Rock Hall induction, 'Wrecking Crew' director Danny Tedesco has spoken up about the beef.
In announcing that she did not want to accept her induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, legendary studio session bassist Carol Kaye took a few shots, including bringing up her longstanding beefs with drummer Hal Blaine and the director of the “ Wrecking Crew ” documentary, Danny Tedesco. So, Tedesco points out, “In my voice-over, I specifically say (so) and set up the story and round table with this line: ‘On the first day of shooting, I brought four of L.A.’s greatest session players together.’ I didn’t say four Wrecking Crew members. He further brings up a long, complimentary quote he says Kaye gave him to use for publicity for the film in 2008, which begins: “Denny has worked hard to put together a very world-class documentary to tell the truth about how our group of experienced fine musicians helped create and perform on everyone’s favorite recordings of the 1960s-70s… I highly recommend this to everyone to see.
