In addition, he served as musical director for the television show HEE HAW, and had a prolific career as a solo artist, recording more than two dozen albums over a 30-year period. Not confined to country, McCoy played on some of the most important records of the rock era, including several albums each by Elvis Presley, Bob Dylan, and Simon & Garfunkel. In later years, he expanded his enormous talents into the realm of songwriting.
