When Paul Simon began recording "There Goes Rhymin' Simon" at Alabama's Muscle Shoals Sound Studio, he was unsure which tracks to lay down first. He left the decision to the studio musicians, and their selection went on to become one of Simon's greatest works.
In this clip, Muscle Shoals Rhythm Section members Roger Hawkins and David Hood describe the laid-back approach that made their studio so successful.

Love the triva. Thanks David and Roger. Wish I had been there with all the great artist that recorded at Muscle Shoals. Lots of music history was made there.
