Recorded at Muscle Shoals Wishbone Recording Studios, and produced by Sammy alongside Billy Lawson, Kershaw's Muscle Shoals album is very much a tribute to a city whose own legend is writ large across the story of modern music. 

 

The birthplace of albums by artists ranging from The Rolling Stones and Lynyrd Skynyrd to Willie Nelson and Bob Dylan, and many many others, Muscle Shoals Sound possesses an atmosphere like no other, one which so permeates Muscle Shoals that it could almost be described as an additional musician.

 

Both on record and its nostalgia-laden video "Slip Away" alone oozes Muscle Shoals passion, but the remainder of the album, too, bathes in its aura, as Kershaw brings his interpretive talents to Wilson Pickett's "Mustang Sally," Etta James's "I'd Rather Go Blind," Bob Seger's "Mainstreet" and Rod Stewart's "Tonight's The Night" and more... all of them past Muscle Shoals Sound Studio triumphs; all of them, too, with a story to tell.
