Musician Bob Glaub Recalls Wild John Lennon & Phil Spector “Rock N’ Roll” Recording Sessions in 1975



Welcome to the LEGENDS: Podcast by All Day Vinyl, hosted by Scott Dudelson. 

In this episode, we dive into the extraordinary career of Bob Glaub, a legendary touring and session musician whose bass playing has graced hundreds of recordings since the 1970’s.Glaub’s impressive credits include Jackson Browne’s “The Pretender,” Stevie Nicks’ “Edge of Seventeen” Warren Zevon’s “Excitable Boy,” and albums by John Lennon, Rod Stewart, John Fogerty, Linda Ronstadt, and many more.

In this clip, Bob recollects his experience recording two songs with John Lennon and Phil Spector during the Rock and Roll Sessions at A&M Studios in Los Angeles. Bob talks about getting recommended to the session via Jesse Ed Davis, the unhinged manner in which Bob was introduced to Spector, John’s demeanor while drinking massive bottle of vodka during the session and so much more. Tons of great insights and stories from a musician who was in the room during those chaotic sessions.

"Strawberry Fields Forever" is the greatest recording ever made.

That's why Specter ended up in court wearing a freak-wig and in prison and dying of COVID.

Legendary. Love his lines on "The Pretender".

Keltners drum on U Can't Catch Me was a direct steal from David Essex, Rock On. But so very impressive. All those triplets with the Jamaican jib. That freshened that tunes groove. Loose but so precise. Lennon's vox at that time we're fully fledged. Whatta bout all the packs of cigs and dirty ashtrays ??? Ahhhhh youth.

I wore that record out, John's later solo work has that same glassy big hollywood atmosphere. He dug it.

Phil’s made better records than River Deep Mountain High. A shame he was not at all okay in the head because he recorded great tracks. I liked his productions.
@marykolar7319 December 21, 2024 - 10:36 pm
What an awful sounding record-bloated and over-produced. I guess Phil subscribed to the "more is more" philosophy...........

Great to hear this story, Bob!

First time I heard of Bob Glaub was at a Jackson Browne concert long ago. Jackson Browne introduced his bass player: “On bass, Bob Glaub. More bounce to the ounce!”

He was superb at Glastonbury as part of the CSN Band ...they were all tighter than two coats of paint ..brilliant musician - Mr Glaub .

The Phil Spector recording sessions for Lennon's Rock 'N' Roll was 1973, not 1975. Lennon finished it a year later without Spector and released it in 1975.

Great story from Bob Glaub. Big Part of that California Sound when record companies ruled the day.

great interview 👍

Even as a teenager, I thought the Wall of Sound treatment killed the potential of that Lennon album. It was smothering.

Great. Everybody in town loved Bob.
