Title: Russ Wapensky LA sessions book Post by: Andrew G. Doe on June 20, 2006, 03:16:15 PM This thing's been supposed to be coming out soon longer than Brian's been talking about doing a rock & roll album, so yesterday I did the obvious thing and contacted his publishers for info.
Bad news - Greenwood cancelled the contract in late 2001. 'Course, he may have a new publisher. Here's hoping...

Or the complete Hite Morgan sessions CD, which others of us helped finance... oh well, starting to get off topic here... :) Title: Re: Russ Wapensky LA sessions book Post by: MBE on June 20, 2006, 08:52:18 PM Or the 2 LP set from 84
Title: Re: Russ Wapensky LA sessions book Post by: Joshilyn Hoisington on June 20, 2006, 09:22:06 PM Well, if the excerpt of Brad's session book in DAG#4 is any indication, I'm almost glad it didn't come out. Lots of wrong information about recording sessions.

Lots of wrong information about recording sessions. Yeah I have to say that info was pretty outdated. Title: Re: Russ Wapensky LA sessions book Post by: Jason on June 21, 2006, 03:44:21 AM If you can find it, Brad Elliott's reference DAT of the Rarities album has more than a few surprises on it, least of all a vintage 1963 instrumental.

PM is a good idea if one wants to discuss things like this.

Yeah, that one sat around too long. . . . Definite errors on some of the J&D related stuff. M. Title: Re: Russ Wapensky LA sessions book Post by: Andrew G. Doe on June 22, 2006, 08:54:54 AM Yes perhaps we should not post this stuff on a public board. PM is a good idea if one wants to discuss things like this. I see no problem if the facts stated are accurate. Libel & slander is something else entirely... but the fact is that Brad took money from many people, promising a product, failed to deliver and also failed to refund the cash. More than once. This is a fact, as people here have affirmed. Title: Re: Russ Wapensky LA sessions book Post by: RP50 on June 22, 2006, 11:46:51 AM Person who benefits the most from this book not appearing? Carol Kaye
Title: Re: Russ Wapensky LA sessions book Post by: MBE on June 22, 2006, 09:01:32 PM I see your point Andrew. All I will say is that he and another author (no one on this board) made things very difficult for me when I began to do some reasearch of my own. Thankfully I was able to help some people with the things I learned during the incidents.
