Out of an Alabama community known to few came an outpouring of music known to all. Muscle Shoals: Low Rhythm Rising is the story of Black and white musicians who found a way to work together at a time when segregation prevailed. Producer Rick Hall and his FAME Recording Studio and the session aces at Muscle Shoals Sound Studio built a home-made approach to cutting music that mattered. As a result, hitmakers from R&B, rock, pop, and country music flocked to this quiet backwater to record. A new rhythm rose. This book, the catalog of a major multi-year exhibition at the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum, traces how it all happened.
