C.<p>I occasionally post what I call a <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/5SecondMovieReview" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>5SecondMovieReview</span></a> - essentially a quick yes/no recommendation with no spoilers. I try to highlight stuff that you may not have run into or seen ads for, at least some of the time.</p><p>This doesn't fit that mould, because I actually want to describe the content of this one.</p><p>"The Wrecking Crew" (2008) is a documentary about a loose-knit group of session musicians in LA that came to prominence in the 1960s. They recorded a huge slice of the hit early rock 'n' roll records that were nominally by the acts shown on the album covers. Literally everyone who has ever listened to music from this era has heard them play, almost certainly without knowing it.</p><p>The music side of this documentary is great, even if (like me) you're not a fan of this era of rock music. I can't stand the Beach Boys and all kinds of pre-British-invasion USA pop music.</p><p>But where this really shines is in showing the human side of the events and the business. It's touching and funny and warm.</p><p>Highly recommended.</p><p><a href="https://mindly.social/tags/WreckingCrew" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WreckingCrew</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/SessionMusician" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SessionMusician</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/HiredGun" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>HiredGun</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/session" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>session</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/recording" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>recording</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/artist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>artist</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/music" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>music</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/film" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>film</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/movie" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>movie</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/review" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>review</span></a></p>
