Dear Wrecking Crew Friends and Family,
It's been some time since I sent you a notice. Some of you already know that we recently lost famed guitarist, Bill Pitman at age 102 and pianist Mike Lang at age 81. We send our love and condolences to their family and friends. They will never be forgotten.
And now some news on a much happier note; I have finished editing my latest documentary called "Immediate Family" as a followup to "The Wrecking Crew".
"Immediate Family" is the story about the next generation of session giants; Leland Sklar, Danny Kortchmar, Russ Kunkel, and Waddy Wachtel.
We started filming in the summer of 2019. In just a few months, we interviewed; Carole King, Lou Adler, Peter Asher, Stevie Nicks, Billy Bob Thornton, Neil Young, James Taylor, Jackson Browne, Linda Ronstadt, Keith Richards, Don Henley, David Crosby, Phil Collins, Lyle Lovett, Steve Jordan, Val Garay, Russ Titelman, Lenny Waronker, Mike Post and Niko Bolas.
Like "The Wrecking Crew" musicians, their music is a bookmark in time. As James Taylor said, "The creative input of these session guys cannot be overstated. It cannot be overstated".
And also like "The Wrecking Crew" musicians, they were hilarious to work with and I can't wait to share this film with audiences around the world.
We don't have a distributor yet, and as we all know from our previous experience with "The Wrecking Crew" film, it is so important to spread the word to friends and family on all social media platforms. So, please share the "Immediate Family" website www.immediatefamilyfilm.com with everyone where you can see a sneak peak of the film as well as some outtakes.
The great news is that the film has been accepted into 5 major festivals so far and we're still sending it out (see list that are publicly announced below). If you are near any of these cites please come to support us and check out the film. I will be attending all the screenings and will have some of the guys with me as well. We all look forward to sharing the film. Thank you so much.
