Today’s song we need to find is one that was recorded at Muscle Shoals, Alabama. Evidently it is a famous recording studio (FAME) that many well known artists have recorded at. Sorry, I’d never heard of it. But, I looked at a list, and there are many songs I’d heard of. This one I remember hearing a lot back then on the radio, along with lots of his other songs. We do have this album, even today – the real LP vinyl one, because there are lots of good songs on there.

From Wiki:
