Aw, man.&nbsp; That's too bad.&nbsp; I guess there's no chance for a William Hung-type retraction.

<p>Bummer. His songs had&nbsp;some of the best drum beats in music. They just fit the song perfectly. Simple and solid. I don't think I've ever head a Wilson Pickett song I didn't like. My two favorites are <a href="http://www.perrynoid.com/mp3/knock.mp3" target="_self">Knock OnWood</a> and <a href="http://www.perrynoid.com/mp3/land.mp3" target="_self">LAND OF A THOUSAND DANCES</a> ( one of my all time favorite drum beats) In the pocket and oh so tight. Always paid tribute to the groove. - Bummer. </p><a href="http://www.thecosmiccircus.com/"><img src="http://www.thecosmiccircus.com/sigpics/GEORGE.jpg" border="0" /></a>

<p>if you enjoyed his music&nbsp;here is a good movie with a great soundtrack. i saw it once and thought the singer was lip syncing to Wilson Pickett but i was just reading up on the soundtrack a little and the guy was actually singing, his name is Andrew Strong... Great Voice!</p><p><img src="http://images.amazon.com/images/P/B00018D3XW.01._SCLZZZZZZZ_.jpg" border="0" /></p>

"In The Midnight Hour" was one of the first songs I figured out how to play on the guitar. I'd drive everyone crazy playing it over and over again trying to sound half as bad-ass as Wilson Pickett.

Truly a legend.
