Why doesn't Clobberin' Time have it's own myspace? Or would that be taking the joke too far?

Hal Blaine
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to: navigation, search

Hal Blaine (b. Harold Simon Belsky, February 5, 1929, Holyoke, Massachusetts) is an American drummer and session musician.

He became a professional drummer in 1948 and joined teen idol Tommy Sands' band in the late Fifties. He was the most in-demand session drummer in Los Angeles during the Sixties and early Seventies, and a list of musicians he played with reads like a who's who of popular music. In 1961, Blaine drummed on Can't Help Falling in Love With You, one of Elvis Presley's most memorable sides, and he would play on Presley's film soundtracks throughout the Sixties.

However, Blaine's best-known affiliation is with producer Phil Spector, where he served as the percussive backbone of the Wrecking Crew — the nickname that younger studio hands on the L.A. scene bestowed on themselves after the rock-hating old-timers complained they were "wrecking the business".

He was a key component of Spector's Wall of Sound production, which yielded such classic rock and roll hits as Be My Baby by the Ronettes, and Da Doo Ron Ron by the Crystals. Blaine also established a fruitful relationship with Beach Boys leader Brian Wilson, for whom he served as the first-call session drummer. Blaine appeared on innumerable hits for them, ranging from Surfer Girl to Good Vibrations.

He also drummed on countless recordings by the cream of West Coast pop musicians, including Jan and Dean, The Mamas and the Papas, The Byrds, Johnny Rivers, The Association, Sonny and Cher, The Grass Roots, and Gary Lewis and the Playboys.

A prolific musician, he played on countless recording sessions during the 1960s and 1970s, including on songs from notable artists such as Frank Sinatra, John Lennon and Elvis Presley.

By Blaine's own estimate, he performed on 35,000 recorded tracks over in a quarter century's worth of work. He published his memoirs, Hal Blaine and the Wrecking Crew in 1990.

WESN! I'm honored to be a friend on your page. You can hear Lithotripter now, if you'd be interesting in dropping by to hear a tune or two.

Even at it's worse WESN is the best radio station in central Illinois.

It looks like the station hasn't changed since my last show. I heart PSAs on cartridge.

(wednesdays 10-noon, '92-94, many chapel hours skipped playing with the radio. Good times.)

Doc Dougan is right. Just 'cause they're playing it up the road in Normal doesn't mean it shouldn't be played on the far left, too.

BTW - the CD looks like this ------------------->

Rock ON WESN!

OK - so in my opinion the Knights of Crisis get far too little airplay on WESN....
