Rick Hall and his family gave me my first job in the music business, and nobody in the industry ever worked harder than Rick. Nobody. American music wouldn’t be the same without his contributions. His death is a huge loss to those of us who knew him and those who didn’t.
I had a few ties. My grandmother babysat Roger Hawkins, the drummer for the Swampers. My cousin was married to Steve Melton who was the main engineer at Muscle Shoals Sound. In 1982 he engineered Glenn's No Fun Aloud album and most of Bob Seger's big hits.

The girl who cut my hair in the early 80s was "seeing" Glenn during that time.
Donna Jean Thatcher Godchaux who sang background on Suspicious Minds and In the Ghetto for Elvis before joining the Grateful Dead was a long-time customer of my business. See if you can spot some legendary rockers in this VERY rare picture... https://www.eaglesonlinecentral.com/...1&d=1515394141
