John's back-up musicians in alphabetical order
-
I have drawn-up a list of session musicians featured on every solo Winston O'Boogie album
It is interesting to see how some names recur on a number of records. And how some names pop up on Paul or George's albums, too!
The list is very clear to read. You are welcome to contribute up-dates, corrections and comments
from me to you, Pawel
