Documentary about the recording studios in Muscle Shoals, Alabama.
Director Greg Camalier travels to the landmark and explains how
material recorded here has been an integral part of pop music from
the 1950s until now. Founded by Rick Hall, FAME Studios was known
as a place where black and white musicians would come together
despite the racial tension which was prevalent in nearby areas. The
backing band for many of these recordings were local white
musicians, known later as The Swampers, who then went on to set up
their own recording studio - Muscle Shoals Sound - in competition
with FAME. Artists who have recorded at Muscle Shoals and found
success while contributing to both studios' growth include Clarence
Carter, Aretha Franklin ('Respect'), Percy Sledge ('When a Man
Loves a Woman'), Etta James, Candy Stanton, Lynyrd Skynyrd ('Sweet
Home Alabama'), Jimmy Cliff, The Rolling Stones ('Wild Horses') and
even The Osmonds.
