The Crimson Moon: RUSSELL GULLEY Celebrating 47 yrs of Muscle Shoals Music

With the release of his CD, "Back to the Swamp" in 2004, Muscle Shoals music veteran, Russell Gulley re-vitalized his recording career after over two decades of silence. His last commercial recording had been released in 1980 with the MSS/Capitol recording act,Jackson Highway, a southern rock group nurtured by Jimmy Johnson and David Hood of the Muscle Shoals Sound Recording Studios, the home of the Swampers, the group immortalized by Lynyrd Skynyrd in the southern classic, "Sweet Home Alabama". Russell’s return to recording focused on the roots of the music that first influenced him, a mix of Americana that blends blues, soul, gospel, country, and rock and roll."I'm striving to contribute to the Muscle Shoals tradition," said Russell in a recent interview, "a tradition of song writing that is non-pretentious, a tradition that truly has given Muscle Shoals its soul".
