Good news! Been wanting to see this and there have been a few screenings in Northern California in the past couple years, but they were all an hour or more drive each direction on work nights, so I took the wait-for-the-official release approach.

Mark,

I've seen it, my buddy who works in the media got an advance copy years ago, it's great. Problem I heard was that Tommy Tedesco's son who did the project had to raise enough money to pay for the rights to use the music that those guys created

Doesn't seem fair, but its a great documentary and I'll buy my copy when it does come out

I saw this at a pre-release showing about 3 years ago
and it is a 'must see'!!

saw it a few years ago myself. Absolutely fantastic. I'm a huge Beach Boys fan so it was amazing seeing all the musicians who played on those tracks. I also love all the surf records they made while the record label put some phoney groups on the covers. A must see!

a great film... this release is WAY overdue.

although there are some factual errors, especially in regard to The Beach Boys. turns out, there is at least a Beach Boy or three on just about everything they ever recorded. The Wrecking Crew deserves praise and recognition, but there's no need to downplay or ignore the work of those who also contributed to some great records... especially when it was THEIR records in the first place.

Wait til you see the Gold Star Recording Studios " Country Wrecking Crew " team of Musicians with the late Mr. Stan Ross & the living Dave Gold. They should be and have their own Star on the " Walk Of Stars " in Hollywood,California on Hollywood Blvd.

TTT: I support " The Wrecking Crew Documentary " of Tommy Tedesco one of the World's Great Guitarist in which this story is based on about the History of him and the Musicians at Gold Star Recording Studios of Stan Ross & Dave Gold. The Country Wrecking Crew is more about the real neighborhood musicians who came to Gold Star to get what they needed done for a real great record by Gold Star of Hollywood,California not Houston,Texas. Very enjoyable and educational the Wrecking Crew.
