DESCRIPTION

TRACK LIST

Many great writers emerged out of the Muscle Shoals music scene of the 1960s but few of them made quite the impact on popular music of Dan Penn and Spooner Oldham. Prolific together and apart, the two men are responsible for innumerable Hall-Of-Fame classics. “Sweet Inspiration” gathers up two dozen of their finest co-creations and demonstrates that they are fully deserving of the kind of accolades that they have always received from soul fans and that, in recent years, they have been afforded by a much broader spectrum of music lovers and music writers. It’s astonishing to think that most of these songs were written on a period of not much more than two years, and that both men were also collaborating with other Shoals writers during the same timeframe.
