Here is a rare glimpse into a session at Muscle Shoals Sound Studio during a 1970's recording session that produced Mary McGregor's #1 hit song "Torn Between Two Lovers." Pete Carr, Lead Guitar for Muscle Shoals Sound says: "
Peter Yarrow, who heard of us from Paul Simon, brought in a young lady named Mary McGregor which he and our piano player Barry Becket were to produce. Peter narates the video and we studio guys go through our usual setup, tuning, working out the song and recording etc. You can probably tell we were nervous with cameras on us the whole time. It is a little intimadating when you are trying to work and don't want to make a fool out of yourself. It all turned out very well I thought. I good one look in the studio where we made hundreds of records but just a small look at the varied styles of music we could do from week to week."

The Swampers were the best studio musicians in the world during the 70s and into the mi 80s.

What a blast to see the guys at home in their own studio. It's funny watching Roger Hawkins playing so mellow when the guy was a beast of a drummer when he had to be. Wilson Picket's Land Of A Thousand Dances is still my all time favorite from Roger. Thanks for this Mick. I always wanted to know how they positioned themselves seating- wise in that room. Now if only some Stax footage could surface showing those guys working in the studio.

Man, I'd swear that Barry Beckett and Larry Knechtel were cut from the same cloth. They just play the right stuff, consistently.

Yes, at 3614 Jackson Highway Sheffield, AL. It's all set back up a lot like it was then with pretty much the original equipment as a historical site and actual recording studio. Check it out if you're in the Shoals.

Listen closely to the 45 record and in the entro you will hear someone’s chair squeak. I always envisioned it to be the drum throne.

Well, actually not, Mr. Yarrow. In fact, they were closing in on the end of Muscle Shoals' most productive years and the big change in popular music was about to arrive in the form of a slap to the face with the arrival of Punk. But, if you didn't like that you could always retreat to the Disco. Not that I'm advocating those two developments, but with historic hindsight we now know in what form change was about to come. Sigh . . . :-(

What's so impressive is that these guys put as much effort into this lame song as they did for Aretha,Wilson Pickett,Paul Simon or the Rolling Stones.
