Description

Jeff and some of his family members check out the world famous Muscle Shoals Sound Studio in Sheffield, Alabama where some of the country's biggest rock and pop songs were recorded. Lynyrd Skynyrd recorded their first album here in the 1970s as well as the Rolling Stones who recorded three songs including "Wild Horses."

The studio was opened in 1969 by the Swampers, a group of four session musicians formally known as the Muscle Shoals Rhythm Section.

A vast number of famous musicians including Linda Ronstadt, Bob Seger, Rod Stewart, Willie Nelson, Cher, Kris Kristofferson, Wilson Pickett, Paul Simon and others came here to record.

The legendary Ronnie Van Zant and Lynyrd Skynyrd immortalized the Swampers in their hit song, "Sweet Home Alabama."
