Sharon, Why Didn’t You Flee?
Yes… A post really meant for the “What If” Department Store of Life [another store, no doubt, Charlie would have had Mary and Sandy skulk into, to buy stuff on a stolen credit card while the rest of the principal Family members sliced, diced and julienned their way into the criminal history books]. But my imagination has always fed thoughts in me that in the wee hours of many a night, when mere outsiders like us are sound asleep in our oh so safe beds, the really affected, surviving family members of this Cielo slaughter - Paul, Doris, Patti & Debra Tate - would have laid awake, utterly haunted, wondering all sorts of “Whys”. Now, I’m sure they had more detailed inside information than we do even today, as to why Sharon didn’t at least attempt an escape from that Living Room that night, and maybe, hopefully, for them, there never was any need for this particular questioning torment. I really DO hope that’s the case and that I’m wrong even in pondering this question. S...

These musicians were used by all the famous singers from the 60s as their band but these players nicknamed themselves The Wrecking Crew...
Of course, that segued into the 1970's "Section",...the same band used by James Taylor, Carly Simon, Jackson Browne, Linda Ronstadt, Bonnie Raitt and Lyle Lovett.
I think the bass player's name is Russ Kunkel or somethin'.
Good Bass player, man.
I think Jim Gadd was on drums.
I think they're still playin',...

This website is about the movie that is being made on this group of session players called the Wrecking Crew, and yes, Danny is right, EVERYBODY used them because these were the BEST musicians, bar none!
Nancy and Frank Sinatra, Herb Alpert, Wayne Newton, Sony & Cher, etc., etc., etc.
And it's Steve Gadd who is a drummer too...I believe he is from Rochester, NY...
I humbly bow to your musical accumen.
Leland Sklar was the bass player, right?
I shoulda known it was Steve instead of Jim.
I think they played with Simon and Garfunkel on that ill-fated 1981 tour. They played Central Park and the Akron Rubber bowl,...(that's where I saw them,...there was this girl with this cleavage thing goin' on,...I ended up dancin' the whole night with her,...I was pretty wasted),...then they broke up again.
"Carly Kunkel"?
That just don't have a good ring to it, do it?
Well,...I guess I'm just jealous, that's all. Y'all know how I feel about Carly,...if you don't, just read "Clouds In My Coffee" on TLB2!
(ahh,...those lips,...that hair...)
What was my name again?,...oh, yeah,
Dan
(sniffle, whimper, sniffle)...
There was this long piano intro to Bridge Over Troubled Water,...I watched that intently. That intro will always stick out in my mind.
Then, of course, I went back to the cleavage I was dancin' with.
Did I tell you about the cleavage, P?
This chick, man,...she had this cleavage that made me forget my name, man. She was such a doll....and the best part about it was that she caught me lookin' at her cleavage and didn't get mad,...I remember it like it was yesterday, man.
She caught me lookin' at her cleavage and we ended up dancin' the night away. First time that's ever happened to me, man. Usually chicks get mad when you look at their cleavage, but not this chick,...wow.
(Wait a minute,...everyone can read this, can't they?,...)
...and,...ummm,...we danced and then we parted ways,...and she couldn't have been more courteous,...and,...ummm,...
I guess that's it.
We danced,...and then parted ways.
End of story.
(pssst,...send me your e-mail, Pristash,...I got somethin' to tell ya...)
:)
