Wilson Pickett

Wow, what a month for soul. First Lou Rawls, now Wilson Pickett. Thanks for some great tunes. Mustang Sally and In The Midnight Hour are two of my favorite songs to sing. Wilson wrote the former with Aretha Franklin for a member of her band. Aretha was giving out Cadillacs, but this guy wanted a Mustang. He also wrote Land of 1000 Dances, another great song. Like so many of his peers, he put some half a century into music, performing up until a year ago. Thanks Wilson, you'll be missed.
