Brilliant bass player.
Deserves it for the Beach Boys work and that bassline from Bullit alone.

Mike, the whole Wrecking Crew have been inducted into the Rock and Roll hall of fame:
The Wrecking Crew's contributions to so many hit recordings went largely unnoticed until the publication of Blaine's memoir and the attention that followed. Keyboardist Leon Russell and guitarist Glen Campbell were members who became popular solo acts, while Blaine is reputed to have played on more than 140 top-ten hits, including approximately 40 number-one hits. Other musicians who formed the unit's ranks were drummer Earl Palmer, saxophonist Steve Douglas, guitarist Tommy Tedesco, and keyboardist Larry Knechtel, who became a member of Bread. Blaine and Palmer were among the inaugural "sidemen" inductees to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2000, and the entire Wrecking Crew was inducted into the Musicians Hall of Fame and Museum in 2007.

Of course it's got to do with West Ham.
You've never heard his incredibly talented drumming before kick-off? Call yourself West Ham? Pah!

Good innings though. Incredible career for a man few have heard of. The Wrecking Crew made so much great music happen.
