Mustang Sally
I finally made my way to a small North Alabama town called Muscle Shoals . It's SO crazy how much legendary music and history came out of this small town. For my visit, and due to this nice fall weather, I threw on my black felt hat and fringe leather jacket. I present my alter ego, "Mustang Sally." Most importantly, some tunes to get us started: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=16u6w0cjjrU Waiting for my band to arrive in Studio B control room. Wink. The "Swampers" were one of the MOST prominent American studio house bands from the 1960's to the 1980's. The band originally consisted of high school-aged white kids who would get out of school when the bell rang and head on over to FAME Recording Studios, located near Florence, Alabama in an area known as "the Shoals," to have fun and play some music with their funky, soulful, southern "swamp" sound. These young kids certainly didn't know at the time they were making history...
