He had some type of positive feel-good magic. He wasn't just putting on a show he was feeling it down to his soul and sharing it with anyone and everyone, arms wide open with a great big smile. I don't know a great deal of history concerning his life, but I know he's always talked about with high regard and that his music was special. I know it's rock and roll/soul, but I'm pretty sure the prince of darkness wasn't doing this one because It's like he has angel's all around him all the time. The man was a blessing. R.I.P Mr. Pickett at least for a while. We shall see you again.

Ok. I'm a 70-year-old white guy who grew up in the 60's, in white suburbia no less, and just not getting R and B. I preferred psychedelia and blowing my mind. Eventually my love of strange and textured sounds led to a love of classical music. Today I stumbled upon Mr Pickett again. I have a confession to make. WTF was I thinking those 50 years ago? Vanilla Fudge and Electric Prunes, their self-indulgent musical excess, have melted into a soup bowl sitting under similar unwashed dishes in my kitchen sink. Wilson Pickett's excess is of a different variety. From the soul and just a f ing gift to everyone. My belated thanks to you, sir.

I was there (Black Star Square) for the 12hrs concert. The crowd was waiting for Wilson Pickett to hit stage; it was total madness when he stepped out in the Black spotted jump suit. Crowd waited too long after Ike-Tina Turner, Santana, Voices of East Harlem etc. There was a THUNDEROUS CHEER to hail the Exciting Pickett that was heard 15miles away early hours of the morning. Picket came in at the Midnight Hour and opened set with same song. I appeared in the SOUL TO SOUL movie welcoming all the artistes at the Accra International Airport. I was with traditional drummers at the opening movie and still have a DVD copy in my collections. Seeing the act on YoutTube now brings back old memories. I later saw Roberta Flack and Picket at concerts in Raleigh, North Carolina circa 1985.

when an entertainer is "in the zone" and the crowd loves him/her they could sling pudding and talk mush and it would be great.. but it takes greatness to make that happen.. and here we are seeing some, from a guy who was one of the monsters of greatness.

Wow! That crowd was blown away! Some serious rhythm and a palpable primitive connection taking place. Wilson Picket really seemed like he knew there was something special taking place. He performs with such a raw sincerity, if that makes any sense. A truly natural talent.

Wilson is very remarkable and all his songs are so lovely 💕 my mom and dad used to play his songs every day before there both pay a visit to heaven. Wilson is the greatest of all time I will always play his songs. Have been listening to Wilson's songs since I was born, what about you since when have you been listening to Wilson’s songs?

Fiona Gold - Since I was a little kid…even then, they referred to 50’s and 60’s music as “oldies” (not that I cared about that - timeless is timeless) and Land of 1000 Dances, Mustang Sally and (of course) In The Midnight Hour were staples on both AM and FM radio in the early to mid 70’s up here in the Pacific Northwest.
