Finished watching Episode 5 that covers 1963-68. Another informative two hours.
At one point they talk about Nashville session musicians some known as the A Team. The bass player Bob Moore took part in over 18,000 sessions and over 50,000 songs. One guitarist Harold Bradley would become the most recorded in music history. Charlie McCoy was a session musician whose best talent was the harmonica but he played sax, the trumpet on Rainy Day Women number 12 &35, baritone sax on Pretty Woman, bass on 3 Dylan albums, organ on Easy Lovin’, the guitar on Detroit City, and vibes and bells on Blue Velvet.
One of the pianists was Floyd Cramer.
