Wilson Pickett was one of the most consistently strong performers of the great soul era of the 1960's.
Born in 1941 in Alabama, Pickett got his start singing gospel, a style that is still apparent in early tunes such as "I Found a Love" and "If You Need Me." But he fully came into his own in 1965, when he went to Memphis to record at Stax. Backed by the MGs and the Mar-Keys, he defined a dramatic sound in which terse horn phrases, an infallible rhythm section and Steve Cropper's spindly guitar lines accentuated the inexorable force of his vocals.
