They were the studio musicians behind some of the biggest hits in the 1960s and 70s. From Be My Baby to California Girls Strangers in the Night to Mrs. Robinson You've Lost that Lovin Feelin to Up, Up and Away and from Viva Las Vegas to Mr. Tambourine Man the group dubbed The Wrecking Crew played on them all. Six years in a row in the late 1960s and early 1970s, the Grammy for Record of the Year went to Wrecking Crew member recordings. The talents of this group of first call players were used on almost every style of recording including television theme songs, film scores, advertising jingles and almost every genre of American popular music, from the Monkees to Bing Crosby. Notable artists employing the Wrecking Crew's talents included Nancy Sinatra, Bobby Vee, the Partridge Family, David Cassidy, Jan & Dean, the Mamas & the Papas, the 5th Dimension, the Association, the Carpenters, Glen Campbell, Cher, John Denver, the Beach Boys, Simon and Garfunkel, the Grass Roots and Nat King Cole.

Japanese original edition. Features 2011's DSD mastering using the original analog master of Deutsche Grammophon. Recorded in 1947 (Symphony No.5 & Egmont Ouverture) & in 1952 (Grosse Fuge). This recording of 5th comes from the 2nd concert, with the same program, conducted by Furtwängler on his return to the podium of the Berlin Philharmonic after the war. The interpretation is very different from the 5th of 1943. The 1st movement is more an expression of conflict & struggle than the tragedy expressed in the wartime performance. Suitably, the last movement is a strong, heroic affirmation & triumph.

In 1975, McCoo and Davis left the 5th Dimension and began performing as a duo. Landing a contract with ABC Records, they recorded their 1976 debut album, I Hope We Get to Love in Time. The first single was the title track, which was a mid-chart hit. Their follow up, "You Don't Have to Be a Star (To Be in My Show)" was an even bigger hit, reaching #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 in January 1977. McCoo and Davis were awarded a Gold single and a Gold album as well as a Grammy Award for Best R&B Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals. The song peaked at #21 in Australia. They became the first African American married couple to host a network television series, The Marilyn McCoo & Billy Davis Jr. Show, on CBS in summer 1977. They released one more album on ABC in 1978, produced by Frank Wilson and containing the popular ballad "My Reason To Be" by songwriters Judy Wieder and John Footman.
