Ep. 51: Carol Kaye- The Comprehensive Interview Pt. 1

Carol Kaye is a towering musical legend who's considered to be one of the most prolific bassists in Rock and Pop music history. With over 10,000 recording sessions under her belt, Carol recorded with them all- The Beach Boys, Glen Campbell, Frank Sinatra, The Righteous Brothers, Simon & Garfunkel (to name a few), and helped give birth to Rock n Roll by playing on songs like "La Bamba" and "Donna" by Ritchie Valens. As an integral part of the Wrecking Crew, Carol has been referred at as "The First Lady of Bass." In the Spring of 2023, Carol and I spent two hours on the phone together, in what amounts to be one the most comprehensive interviews Carol has done. We cover lots of ground and any fan of Carol's career, legacy, and music history, will enjoy what Carol shares. - Part 2 of this interview can be found on all the podcast platforms and is slated to be released on Monday November 20.
