Just the other day, in the Comments of my Larry Knechtel post, reader liverbird wrote:

The musicians of the 60's and 70's will slowly disappear (those that survived). Along with the Motown house band, and the Stax/Volt gang, the Wrecking Crew defined the music of the time. RIP

I don't think either of us could have expected another one to come so soon.

First Les Paul, then Jim Dickinson. Larry Knechtel makes three. Knechtel was the pianist (and occasional bassist) in The Wrecking Crew, the name given to the LA studio musicians who played on countless hits. He was also a member of Bread, but let's not talk about that. He was 69.

Unfortunately, there's no video clip available for Elvis Costello's The Other Side Of Summer (stupid Warner Music Group).
