I just heard on the news that Wilson Pickett died of a heart attack

Just saw that bit of news myself… Guess Mustang Sally ain't ridin' in the Midnight Hour no more.

 

[Doanut]

she'll be riding on those radio airwaves in the sky Hell be missed

 

[Sayeed]

Yes he will.

PS - Was he in The Commitments?

 

[JordanTheGreat]

Im not sure... I wasn't familiar with him until he started his solo career

 

[musheezz]

Hmmm… Might be thinking of someone else - too lazy to Google right now.

I'm pretty sure that he was a big part of the Stax Record label's success back in the 60's.

 

[Fiore Sanguinante]

yes he was also a big part of the Atlant recorRAB back in the sixties too
