Muscle Shoals hit music, and tribute to my Dad’s last visit there.
Small town boys/men create a sound, that goes around the world.

In the backwoods area of northwest Alabama, Hit Songs were generated there. Hours away from main highways and major size cities, a small community made itself known in the music industry. It was far removed, from the popular music recording centers like, LA, Nashville, Detroit, New York and London.
Why would any major music artist record their music there? The Swampers is why. Some local studio white musicians distinguished themselves as a new rhythm sound (the Swampers). They created, produced and recorded Percy Sledge’s When A Man Loves A Women. And then a new beginning of history began, and other artist flocked to the location to grasp for the musical magic.

That is a great Doc. I have the DVD.
Looking at that map I didn't know Muscle Shoals was where the map shows. I just assumed with a name like Muscle Shoals that it was on the Gulf coast.Last edited by CDave; 03-06-2021 at 03:25 PM.

Boz Scaggs' first US album was done at Muscle Shoals and is very bluesy and has Duane in a couple of songs. Pick up both Duane Allman anthology sets for a ton more wonderful stuff from late 60s and early 70s.
Just an analog guy trapped in a digital world.
