 Yeah , we discussed this before , but OETA (PBS) is showing the Muscle Shoals doc again . Maybe the best music doc ever , equivalent to On Any Sunday for motorcycles . Amazing stuff .

Forgot to add:I really miss when different parts of the country and all the various studios had "their sound".  Nowadays it's all 200 tracks and ProTools-that's why it all sounds the same.

Bev and I just watched the replay this morning on one of the digital stations.   Thanks for the heads-up Dusty.

Enjoyed it immensely.

My favorite is "Willie the Pimp" on the Hot Rats album. Even if your not a fan of the Mothers of Invention, that is a masterpiece

Leon Russell also did studio work in Los Angeles and is in "The Wrecking Crew" because of that. Ah the good old days, when the bands never played on their own albums…  :laugh:
