I Stand Corrected

In my blog entry yesterday I mentioned that Mick Jagger had written Wild Horses at Fame Studios in Muscle Shoals, but a reader set the record straight. The studio where the song was written and recorded was actually Muscle Shoals Sound Studios in Sheffield and not Fame Studios. In fact most of the songs I know and love from the time I was a senior in high school until disco became the rage, was recorded in that little studio.
Muscle Shoals Sound Studios was the home of "The Swampers" who are world famous musicians. The Lynyrd Skynyrd anthem "Sweet Home Alabama" mentions them:
"Now Muscle Shoals has got the Swampers
And they've been known to pick a song or two
Lord they get me off so much
They pick me up when I'm feeling blue
Now how about you?"

The reader went on to post the link in the comment section for Muscle Shoals Sound which I learned is now on the National Register of Historic Places. Here is a brief history as recorded on their website:
