If you get a chance, watch the movie Muscle Shoals. It was on Netflix for a while and I'm sure you can find it somewhere. Here's the Trailer:


Anyway, the guitarist for the session group Muscle Shoals Rhythm Session has died at the age of 76. The guy recorded with damn near everybody like Aretha Franklin, The Stones, Bono, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Paul Simon, Wilson Pickett, Willie Nelson, Cat Stevens, Eddie Rabbitt, James Brown, Bob Seger, Linda Ronstadt, Dr. Hook, Oak Ridge Boys, Bob Dylan, Leon Russel, Jimmy Cliff and on and on. When you watch the movie you'll be amazed at how the session musicians can change style from soul to rock to jazz to R&B to country to just about anything depending on what was needed. He was probably the most versatile guitarist in the most versatile band ever. RIP.

Muscle Shoals is one of my favorite documentaries, it blew my mind. I wish it was still on Netflix because I recommend it to people but they can never find it.
