[@scottamori3188]

Such great R&B!! Horns and the dynamic Wilson Pickett. Such fun music.

[@RichardRitenour0522]

My thoughts exactly!

[@peterchecksfield9958]

R&B? This is SOUL, man!

[@Tyian-Bowman]

This guy is on fire! Motivates me to improve my performance. Cheers

[@JohnnyJimsAZ]

I wish I had that shirt when I was going to the under 21 discotheques that were popping up all over Las Vegas back in 77.

[@peterchecksfield9958]

Wilson Pickett, Otis Redding, James Brown, Little Richard... forget The Beatles, these were the TRUE "Fab Four"!

[@didierambact3978]

Man, together they're the real "fab' eight". Humanity needs this, now.

[@ianmackenzie686]

Agree!

[@essiejames9492]

Wilson was a extremely good performer but for some reason did not get the recognition as JB got still listening in 2024 RIP Mr Wilson Pickett❤❤

[@BIZARBIES]

Those outfits the band had to wear! 😂🤣

[@OWR0406]

tell me one “now” artist who does deliver a show like this…

[@Matt_Kraczon]

Bruno Mars

[@AdrianDeVore]

Usher

[@lowellcalavera6045]

Aw, jeez. You again..

[@catpocalypsenow8090]

I wonder if he was actually able to wait until the midnight hour.

[@susiefairfield7218]

Ron "PigPen" McKernan was the only Kat that covered this, so hot

[@recordguy4321]

that is so wrong LMBO!

[@susiefairfield7218]

@@recordguy4321 wasn't saying he was the only one who covered it; just that, he did a super hot version of it & is my favorite 🙏♥️💃

[@recordguy4321]

@@susiefairfield7218Try reading your comment u said Ron"Pig Pen" Mckernan (who was imo the best thing the Grateful Dead ever had) was the only one who covered it and it was hot. He did a great version but not nearly as good as Mitch Ryder and the Detroit Wheels in 65 or about 100 other groups both black and white who covered it. One of THE most covered songs ever. But I get your point.😍😀

[@susiefairfield7218]

@@recordguy4321 you're correct thank You

[@catholiccowboy8545]

I preferred W. Pickett in the 60s.

[@Arniegeddon2006]

damn Eddie Murphy sure can sing

[@speedofsand]

I can't tell, is that Duck Dunn on bass?

[@user-tz5xq5qm4u]

これって何年頃の絵だろう?ピケットがやけにスリムだけど?!。

[@walkertongdee]

With a name like his, he should play the guitar...

[@sharreetaylor861]

Too fast. The slower Stax groove is better.

[@michaelmariano8753]

I do love the slower groove of the hit single. But for live performance, it's all about energy, and energizing your audience. So imo the faster groove works great for a live situation like this.
