R&B Great Wilson Pickett Dies
Legendary soul singer Wilson Pickett died Thursday at age 64, his
agent confirmed to the Associated Press.
The "Mustang Sally" and "In the Midnight Hour" singer suffered a heart
attack at a hospital near his home in Virginia. Chris Tuthill, a
spokesman for the singer's management company Talent Source, said
Pickett had been suffering from health problems for the past year.
"I loved him and I'm sure he was well-loved, and I just hope that he's
given his props," the singer's son, Michael Wilson Pickett, told
WRC-TV in Washington, the AP reports.
