Legendary bassist Lee Sklar sits down with Drew Dempsey at Sunset Sound to discuss how filling in on Bass one night for James Taylors band at The Troubadour changed his life. Lee tells stories of Carole King, Peter Asher, Danny Kortchmar and details how the momentum of that one night left to a 50 year friendship and bond over music and life. Lee is one of the most prolific studio and touring musicians ever, but after a gift from Peter Asher helped his band "The Section" begin and now has released three albums of instrumental rock, plus the new documentary that just came out about
'The Immediate Family". Drew and Lee also share some advice on how to get going in the music industry.
