For 'Rock On,' we not only acted as rock musicians; we also went into the studio to record songs and jammed live to get the concert feel right.
I began hearing rumors of apossible recording session with Neil Young. I was a huge fan of Neil's.
We happened to be in the studio next door and I think Noel Redding came around and said, 'Do you fancy having a sing on this?' We just went and did it and it was great.
I don't have too much time to jam with the rest of Hollywood.
No. Maceo played sax, didn't he, well they used to sit in.
I do love all types of music. I could be in a session for eight hours, and when I leave, I'll instinctively go to the radio or put on my favourite songs.
As you know, I played a little trumpet with Elvis. I overdub a few drum licks here and there on a session, but I'm not a drummer by any means.
We recorded several of Kenny's songs in the living room of my home.
'Black Radio' was pretty much a jam session.
Ah, the Wrecking Crew! They played on everything that came out of L.A. Oh, that was a good band. You really enjoyed going to work. You played for everyone; it didn't matter what it was.
After Nashville sushi and a long debate on Bob Dylan, we went into Woodland Studios at 10 pm that night for a look around, and jammed for 5 hours solid.
I mean, I can sit down with a guitar, and in fact, we do two, three songs with just guitar and percussion.
I went straight in. Fade in, one... whatever. He's playing the piano in the radio station.
Next time we need to be on drugs and have lots of suffering and alcohol abuse going on while recording, I'm kinda picturing a Jerry Lee Lewis session from the mid Seventies.
