Lee glossed over it here, but he tells a lovely story about meeting Paul McCartney for the first time. He was at a Rock 'n' Roll function where the best of the best attended. Lee says he screwed up all his courage and walked over to Paul's table. Before he got there, Paul noticed him, gat up and said "Wow!! Leland Sklar! What an honour to meet you!" Apparently, Lee said "oh, no. You can't do that to me!! This is MY SPECIAL MOMENT!!" - What a humble guy! I must say I only became aware of Lee during the lockdown, when he started his KZbin channel. Turns out he's performed with EVERYBODY!! I'm 56 years old, and Lee seems to have played on all the music I listened to in my formative years! I've been listening to him all my life and never knew!

A couple of months ago, I stumbled across Leland's KZbin site -- which was apparently very new at the time. He uploads a new video -- 20 minutes long, give or take -- every day and I've watched and loved every one of them. You can't fake, day after day, month after month, this kind of niceness and humility. I've loved his playing for 50 years -- playing with virtually every one of my favorites (especially the singer-songwriters) -- and since discovering his KZbin videos, I've been thrilled to see and hear how decent a human being he truly appears to be. Thanks, Lee!

Lee Sklar an extraordinary musician and a bassist nonpareil. Yet the secret to a goodly portion of his success is his easy-going, über easy to get along with demeanor. While those qualities are essential to any studio session or touring sideman musician, Lee has this in an over abundance. He’s approachable and where the importance of his chops comes in, is when he’s asked to play the part that the producer or artist envisions, he plays it. No ego, no constant impetus that drives him to try to sell something he thinks would be better. He just plays the part and let’s the people who hired him judge whether or not it’s a keeper. Lee is the perfect combination of artist, technician and “employee”. He’s imbued with gratitude, appreciation, humility and at the end of the day, he has a servant’s heart. That’s what has opened so many doors for him. His chops are what keep him in the room once a given door has been opened. Another who was cast from the same quality of mould is Carol Kaye.

Leland is most approachable and friendly. I've met him several times at the NAMM Shows, and he's always relaxed and willing to conversate. I humbly gave him one of my CD's, where I played all instruments including the bass. I'll have to ask him if he listened to it next time I see him. He truly loves what he does and appreciates his fans. He has recorded and performed with just about everyone! Amazing story and true inspiration to any musician.

I had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Sklar in Santa Barbara in the mid eighties. I had gone down to State Street to buy some reel tapes on Cinco De Mayo. It was a beautiful day, sun shinning and lots of California girls walking up and down State Street to and from the the beach. Sat on a bench out side the Radio Shack having a street vendor frozen drink and watching the beautiful women walk by. Mr. Sklar sat down. We introduced ourselves. Not a celebrity to a normal guy, just two normal guys watching the girls go by. I knew who he was, but never let him know that. I think if I was ever a celebrity, I might appreciate just being a normal guy. Thank you Mr. Sklar. This probably never made your memories list, it made mine. keep up the good work, sir.

Hey, just want to say thanks for this interview. I loved many songs because of the bass lines. The bass line is what pushed the song or made it exceptional. When the Internet came out, I looked up many of these songs and sure enough it was Leland. This is when I learned how influential he had been to me as a player. During this Corona Virus nonsense, I have been especially thankful for Leland because of how generous he has been, sharing himself on his KZbin channel. Thank you for sharing more of him.

He has done it all, seen it all, met and played with them all. I am thrilled to learn that he never stopped being a fan. I have always admired his playing, I learned a lot listening to him and I always really dug his whole seemingly Zen-like thing. I once, unintentionally, torqued him off on a Bassists web community. I have a Beard not unlike his and I asked him what hair products he used. He launched upon me a hilarious diatribe of semi-intellectual sarcasm making references to what I thought at the time to be metal stripping and fibreglass chemicals. I really wasn't trying to be a smartass in anyway but he obviously thought otherwise. Maybe his coif is off limits. I don't ever wish to raise his wrath again. Another great vid, Joe.

I saw the man playing with James Taylor in Belfast during the 1980s.He was wonderful and of course unmistakable.He'll always stand out in a crowd! He seems such a humble man but, yes , he's up there with the very best...

Such a great interview ...been a fan of his for so long and it's nice to hear him so humble and still excited. Love that he mentioned my favorite artist, Merle, with reverence.

Good post, Joe. Because the man is my senior by a few years I'll call him Mr. Sklar until he says, Call me Leland.

Great interview, thanks for sharing. Have been following Lee’s KZbin channel since March, fantastic to be able to hang with this incredible musician for around 20 minutes every day. As one of the other subscribers said, “Come for the music, stay for the stories”. 🇿🇦

Man, what a humble guy. Don’t see too many with such a legendary history so real and down to earth. Another treasure Joe, it must be something when you realize and remember another chunk of Gold you had stashed away. Thanks again for sharing all these with the world.

Patrick.... yes you are so right. To be honest...... I wasn’t sure they were any good because I had no experience with being a interviewer or cameraman. These truly have been in storage( the one camera interviews) up to 16 years according to whom I’m interviewing., I decided to check them out again only after the new MHOF‘Backstage” tv show I started doing last year began to get a number of viewers on KZbin so I thought I’d check these out one more time. They weren’t as bad as I thought so here they are:) Thanks for watching.... Joe

Another terrific video Joe! Leland comes across as a really humble guy. I don't know much about Bass playing but I am fairly certain that he is an incredible player. You don't get to play with all of those amazing musicians unless you are extremely talented, which he obviously is. Thanks for the video & stay safe............ 👍👍😉😉
