Rick Hall founded FAME Recording Studios in Muscle Shoals, Alabama, and turned it into a recording Mecca. Glenn recorded "Smuggler's Blues" in the Shoals (although I think he went to Muscle Shoals Sound to do it), and Bob Seger has recorded many songs in the Shoals. Rick Hall started it all, though.

If you haven't seen the documentary "Muscle Shoals," I highly recommend it. Rick was a great guy and a beloved member of the Muscle Shoals community.
