In the thread posted a few weeks ago analyzing the the session for WIBN there was a photo of Carole Kaye and Barney Kessel. Also in the photo was a young african american gentleman whom I did not recognize. It has come to my attention that this is Harold Battiste. See linky....anybody heard of him in association with the LA music scene of the 1960s? This is tangentially related to the Beach Boys, if only marginally.
Thanks
