Alabama Soul

Sorry sorry..just had to upload this. I guess you know the history of how Eric Clapton had heard of Duane....Anyways it was this rockin' guitar solo at the end of Picketts cover of "Hey Jude" that first impressed good ol' EC so much. This was just one of the amazing Muscle Shoals recordings at Fame studios. The Muscle Shoals Rhythm Section, also known as The Swampers was the band.
