Hal Blaine holds up his hands after placing them in wet cement following an induction ceremony for Hollywood's RockWalk in Los Angeles in 2008.
Among the recordings on which he has performed are well over a thousand that became nationally charted hit singles on Billboard's Hot 100.
Among these are over 100 hits that made the national Top 10, and this week Joel Najman's My Place program presents the first in a series of programs that spotlight what may be describes as Hal Blaine's "greatest hits". Memorable hits by Bobby Darin, The Beach Boys, Simon & Garfunkel and many others are featured.
