yeah, some of the wrecking crew folk were on Forever Changes at the beginning when they were trying to get the players in Love to learn and play the songs better, apparently. Another great album to savor all these years later. Carol Kaye's instructional video was kind of weird and solarized looking, but full of great anecdotes.

You know, I had heard about that video - solarized shots and all. Speaking of instructional bass, I hear Larry Graham (Sly & the Family Stone, Graham Central Station) has put out a video as well. That should be interesting!

Would be remiss if I didn't mention that we picked up a copy of Brian Wilson & Van Dyke Park's "Smile" album last night. What an achievement! It's fantastic.
