Best of Wilson Pickett

Amazon.com
Don't wait "In the Midnight Hour" for this "Midnight Mover." "Mustang Sally" called "634-5789" because she knows that his "Engine #9" shakes it at the "Funky Broadway" on its way to his "Land of 1000 Dances." He's all "Sugar Sugar," the man to mix "Fire and Water." He's got Duane Allman playing killer slide guitar on "Hey Jude," and the finest Southern soul rhythm sections backing him: Stax, Muscle Shoals, American. It's Wicked Pickett. 'Nuff said. --Robert Gordon

One of the Very Best.......2007-03-08

Wilson Pickett is one of the best in soul music and this Cd has the best of his music on it. If you too like soul music this Cd is a must to have.

Mustang Sally and others.......2006-07-15

Ooooo...this song and this CD rev my engine. This is the CD I play when I need to exercise or clean the house. Sometimes I listen to Mustang Sally three times in a row.

Introducing...... The Exciting Wilson Pickett.......2006-05-25

This is just what you need to kick start your Wicked Pickett collection. The first five songs are his major hits and hearing them back to back like this is almost overwhelming!(be warned stero lovers,they are in mono because the orginial analog mono masters were used its actually what I prefer)The remastering is great thanks to Rhino of course and the songs are terrific. I can't believe how good they got "I found a love" to sound its not perfect but its much better than any other remaster of that song. There are other songs that one could argue about not being here but that's not the purpose of this collection for those who wish for more grit I recommend "A man and A Half." Wilson is truly astounding on these sixteen cuts, its a shame he wasnt as successful on the pop charts. His roaring, raspy delivery is so drenched in gospel it makes you wonder(gospel fans) what Archie Brownlee would have sounded like had he went secular. The annotation and sequencing are great and the music is outstanding. Exquisite Pickett! :o)

Still Loving Wilson Pickett.......2006-03-07

I ordered this CD after the death of Wilson Pickett to have a lasting memory of him. I have several of his LP and 45 records. This CD captured the most popular recordings of "Wicked Pickett." The tunes are excellent for driving music or for just sitting back, patting your foot and remembering back in the day!

Best of Wilson Pickett.......2006-02-23

After learning of Wilson Pickett's passing, my thoughts had returned to my teenage years and how his music had made me feel and other happenings during this period in my life. I remember the good times and decided I wanted to have something to help remember them. "Mustang Sally" was always a favorite with memories of those "hot" chicks of my youth and tight sweaters. "Land of a thousand Dances" was also a favorite for all the dances that I attended of which this was a favorite to dance to.

Customer Reviews:

great music, mediocre audio quality.......2006-02-20

Wilson Pickett deserves better. This was issued in the early 90s and since then standards for remastering of vintage R&B/soul/and rock have improved .... Worth getting in terms of the music, 2 discs packed with one great soul track after another .... but the sound quality lacks punch .... I am hoping that someone goes back to the Atlantic studio vaults and remasters this stuff to bring out the full wickedness of Wicked Wilson Pickett!!!

Salacious and Soulicious.......2006-01-18

For those who want a truly worthy representation of the man's body of work, check out "Man and a Half." This compilation includes gems from Wilson's early days with "The Falcons" as well as classics such as "Land of 1000 Dances" "Midnight Hour" and the staple of all open mic nights "Mustang Sally." However, the songs I have loved the most from this compilation were those that never get airplay. Such songs as Isaac Hayes' classic "Toehold", or other finds such as "I found a True love" make my feet move. I've also discovered new favorites such as "She's looking Good", "Mini-skirt Minnie", and "She said Yes". If you like soul music that's gritty and raw,check out "Wicked" Wilson's music. You won't regret it.

James Brown may be the Godfather, but Wilson Pickett is the Arch Bishop.

soul music's truest legend!!!!.......2004-08-21

wilson pickett is truly one of the world's greatest soul singers,frow his early days with the falcons band when "i found a love" was born on through his magnificent journey of foot stompin' hips shaking everywhere ,voices shoutin' do the "funky broadway" "in the midnight hour" " she's lookin'good" "i found a true love" "mustang sally" "i'm a midnight mover" "engine #9" "fire and water" mercy, mercy!! one little foot note if anyone is interested how wilson pickett got his nickname "wicked" is when he was on a plane years ago going to a show i believe,and some woman sitting across from him caught him trying to look up her skirt and just then she hollered ooh child you is "wicked" that's how i heard it one time on the david letterman show when he asked him about it,well that's all folks!!!!joey hoffman soulin' on !!!!

DISAPPOINTMENT.......2003-10-30

I was disappointed by sound quality of the CDs!
I still have most of the songs on tape and I'm sure
the sound is better than that from the CD-player.
And it was a great surprise to me because I play
CDs on High-quality "PHILIPS" player and I've
never had such problems with other CDs. Maybe it's due
to recording technology but anyhow it's a horrible
sound from "mono" recorded songs as well as from "stereo"
recorded.
Sorry!

Wicked,wicked,wicked...and that's good!.......2001-08-14

Wilson Pickett had,and probably still has, it all. The church trained passionate voice in an eternal battle between the sacred and the profane. Evidence, based on "Mustang Sally" alone, suggests that the 'devil' usually got the upperhand, but in the context of great soul singing this is usually the case. No other soul man left the church behind in such a funky cloud of dust as "The Wicked" did. Thank you Rhino Records for putting this soul giant's greatest stuff (and it's all great) in one easy to buy package. From his neophyte gospel/doowop crooning with the Falcons, through the monster sixties soul standards with Jerry Wexler at the helm and the Stax musicians kickin' his booty, all the way to some of the greatest pre-disco hits Gamble and Huff ever had a hand in, this set is a soul fan's picnic in the park.Don't let the green grass fool ya in the midnight hour I found a love and she was a midnite mover on funky Broadway!Lord have mercy! Oh, sorry, I'm listening to it as I type this. I think you know how I feel.
