AN INTERVIEW WITH DENNY TEDESCO (DIRECTOR OF “THE IMMEDIATE FAMILY” DOC) (Sneak Peek, Ep. 223B)

The Wrecking Crew is to the Sixties what The Immediate Family are to the Seventies, so it’s no accident that music doc director extraordinaire Denny Tedesco tackled both groups of studio musicians in equally fascinating documentaries. While we’re on the topic of Graham Nash, The Immediate Family became Crosby & Nash’s touring ensemble, nicknamed The Mighty Jitters on the road for reasons we won’t go into here.

Here’s just a few of the many things that Denny discusses with Discograffiti in this podcast:

• How Denny’s relationship with his father (Wrecking Crew guitarist Tommy Tedesco) changed after his cancer diagnosis;
• The ways in which his newest doc The Immediate Family differs from his first, The Wrecking Crew;
• The cold, hard realities of making an independent film;
• The toxic relationship between Hal Blaine and Carole Kaye;
• His incredible upcoming music doc projects;
• And our mutual dream doc project.
