Just watched this great doco on Muscle Shoals. Quite a revelation to see all the albums that were recorded there, and the guys that played on them. All of Aretha Franklin's classic albums, Wilson Picket, Percy Sledge etc played by a bunch of geeky white guys from Alabama in the days of segregation.
It's on Netfix if anybody has access to that.
Strongly recommended.
Here is a trailer.

Yeh, it was great! I've been raving about it for weeks.
It was added to iTunes recently if that helps.
Those geeky Swampers played on everything cool.

Great doco. Could only be improved by removing all traces of Bono.
