I met David many years ago after a Scott Boyer show. I offered to carry his amp to the car so as we were walking to his car I told him how he was on most of favorite records. I also said that he's probably heard that a hundred times. He looked at me and humbly said "no, no ones ever told me that." Well, they should have. Such a nice man!

Sevevral years ago My wife and I took a trip to Muscle Shoals. We got to meet with David's wife and she was our tour guide for the day. David happened to be playing out fo town. What a great placce to visit for sure and something I will not forget.

I lived in the Shoals area for a bit and was in the only music store in the area when an older gentleman walked up and asked me if I played bass. He said he played too and we had a nice conversation. I thought to myself "What a nice guy". When he walked off one of the employees said, "Do you know what that was?". I didn't. It was David Hood.

Thank you so much for bringing up Tommy Cogbill! Hes my favorite bass player and the most underrated bassist of all time. I've seriously been thinking about doing a mini documentary about him for youtube because there's basically nothing about him out there other than the Memphis Boys book. I'd put Cogbill right next to Jamerson as the top pioneers of electric bass.

I knew the drive by truckers leader had family connection at muscle shoals. Then he talked about his son.... Is his son the Drive By Truckers singer -- with the thick country accent?. His sounds so authentic, which is not always the case with folks who drawl al lot......especially if they are from New York...And don't think country folks can't tell the difference.
