Säi Liewen
[änneren | Quelltext änneren]De Wilson Pickett, jéngst vun 11 Kanner, hat eng schwéier Kandheet, an huet seng Carrière als Sänger am Chouer vun der Baptistekierch vu Prattville ugefaangen. Hien ass op Detroit geplënnert an huet do eng Gospel-Band gegrënnt. Geschwënn duerno ass hien der R&B-Band, The Falcons, bäigetrueden, déi e Sänger gesicht huet. 1963 huet en eng Solocarrière ugefaangen.
Mëtt der 1960er Joren hëlt hien am Stax Records-Studio vu Memphis mat vu senge bekanntste Stécker op: In the Midnight Hour, Don't Fight It, 634-5789 a Ninety-Nine and One-Half (Won't Do), déi dräi lescht hat en zesumme mam Eddie Floyd a Steve Cropper geschriwwen.
An de Fame-Studioen an Alabama huet en e bësse méi spéit weider Succèsen opgeholl, dorënner Mustang Sally, Funky Broadway, a Land of 1000 Dances.
Och fir aner bekannten Artisten huet e Stécker geschriwwen, dorënner Led Zeppelin, Van Halen, d'Rolling Stones, Aerosmith, The Grateful Dead, Genesis, Creedence Clearwater Revival, Roxy Music oder de Bruce Springsteen.
Bis 1971 huet hie weider Erfolleg, ënner anerem mat enger Reprise vun Hey Jude vun de Beatles. Hien huet och Everybody needs somebody to love, opgeholl, dat d'Stones an d'Blues Brothers spéider gecovert hunn.
1973 huet en d'Plackefirma gewiesselt, virun Albumen opgeholl, mä konnt net méi un de Succès vu virdrun uknëppen. Et huet e virun allem nach vun him héieren, wann e wéinst Kläppereien oder Fueren ënner Alkoholafloss viru Geriicht stoung.
