Musician

The Resume

    (September 8, 1952- )
    Born in San Antonio, Texas
    Played in the jazz/rock bands Dreams and the 24th Street Band
    Bassist in the house bands for Late Night with David Letterman (1982-93) and The Late Show with David Letterman (1993- )
    Recorded the solo album 'OH!' (1993)
    With his father, William Franklin Lee III, recorded the album 'Birdhouse' (2005)
    Member of the Beatles tribute band The Fab Faux
    As a session musician, appeared on over 1,000 albums
    Wrote 'Bass Guitar for Dummies' (2003)

Why he might be annoying:

    As a music major in college, he initially studied French horn and said, 'It was ridiculous because I was so awful.'
    He noted that working with Letterman has cut down on the amount of session work he can do, since in order to get to tapings of the show, he needs to leave the recording studio by 3 PM, which is often the time the performer shows up.
    He said, 'TV is my favorite drug... If I had nothing to do, I'd just watch TV all day.'
    He sang back-up on Ricky Martin's 'She Bangs.'

Why he might not be annoying:

    He has also been part of the backing band at the Concert for New York City (2001) and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremonies.
    He has performed on stage with three of the Beatles (Paul, George and Ringo).
    He said about the possibility of a Fab Faux CD, 'I don't think it would be appropriate because the Beatles music was recorded perfectly the first time around.'
    One of his hobbies is scuba diving.
    He did not sing back-up on William Hung's 'She Bangs.'
