Over the years, I have played on at least 50 records by bands without credit. On one band, the keyboard player is fine live, but freezes up in the studio. 
 I worked lots of dates with a surf band years ago. The guitar player could not read and just played until he wanted to stop live. That didn't work on 45's.
 
 The bad news is, I got session rates, but no points.
 
 Now, I rarely see live bands in big venues who are not partially using tracks, usually triggered by the drummer. I watch the drum head and listen to the bass drum line. Lots of times, there are extra strokes coming from somewhere.
