Saw this movie last night and just had to tell ya.... 

MUST SEE for music fans. So, did you know that the killer backing band for Percy Sledge, Aretha Franklin, Etta James, Wilson Pickett and other R&B and soul singers was not what you may think...but four white boys from Alabama? 

And that Jimmy Cliff, Bob Marley's predecessor to reggae in the USA, had these same 4 white guys as his rhythm section, and not his Jamaican posse?

Follow this to the Rolling Stones, Traffic, Duane Allman, Lynyrd Skynyrd, and Paul Simon, all who wanted the "sound" and rhythm section, recorded there.  

Early photos, video of the sessions, and the back story to Muscle Shoals recording studios was captivating. Definitely one of the best music documentaries I've seen in some time. 

Did you know that before the Grateful Dead, Donna Jean Godchaux was a back up singer in Muscle Shoals for both studio's including Percy sledge's "When a Man Loves a Woman?"  

Do you know what the worst type of person four 4 white men could be seen with in downtown Muscle Shoals was? You may be surprised.
