Description
In this episode, we pay tribute to the humble session musician, that behind-the-scenes hero who has made some of the greatest recorded music in history possible. We'll hear a variety of sessions in which these seemingly anonymous players made their mark, sometimes even eclipsing the performers whom they were hired to support. These will include Jimmy Page (Lulu, Donovan), Nicky Hopkins (The Rolling Stones, The Jayhawks), Luther Vandross (David Bowie), Robert Fripp (Brian Eno), Carol Kaye (The Monkees, Love), Booker T & the MG's (Albert King), Ry Cooder (Captain Beefheart), Linda Rondstadt (Neil Young), Robert Quine (Matthew Sweet), Tina Turner and the Ikettes (Frank Zappa), and many more!
