Great book! There's also a good documentary about the Wrecking Crew. It was directed by Tommy Tedesco's son and centers a good deal on him but spends plenty of time on the other big names that were a part of the Wrecking Crew. Tedesco, for those who don't know was probably the premier guitarist in the Wrecking Crew.
Again, great book and documentary for anyone interested in popular music of the 60s.
