Waddy Wachtel news

[blackcat]

Waddy Wachtel and some of his sessions pals [great sidemen Danny Kortchmar, Leland Sklar, and Russ Kunkel] have made a new album. Its release is on hold because of Covid-19. Originally it was due out in November. However, their band “The Immediate Family” have released a single (which includes 5 songs) featuring Waddy on “Slippin’ And Slidin’.” There is also a great live version of “Werewolves of London” that Waddy and Warren Zevon friends will enjoy. Some of you might remember Waddy wrote the entire first verse. You can see the video on Youtube of Slippin’ and Slidin’ here:

Some of you will enjoy listening to a podcast interview that Waddy did with The Hustle. Stevie Nicks gets referenced a bit during the interview as well. You can listen to it here:

Thanks for letting us know, old friend!

Danny Kortchmar worked with Don Henley on Building the Perfect Beast, right — and helped write “The Boys of Summer.”

Hi David - thanks for the shout out! Yes, Kootch is amazing - so is Leland Sklar. These guys are on so many of our LPs - it's great that these talented sessions men are putting their creativity together.

Some might enjoy this interview of Waddy if they haven't see it:

The people these guys have worked with is mind blowing. All of them!
