I wanted to announce that Wilson Pickett has passed away today from a heart attack. He was best known for his music like Mustang Sally, and In the Midnight Hour. His music is R&B. He was 64 years old. He was inducted to the Rock-n-Roll hall of Fame in 1991. You can go to Wilson Pickett.
He didn't do any films or music related to John Wayne. I wanted to only announce his death because he is from my home town of Prattville, AL. I didn't know him personally because he moved before I was born. He still has family here in town. I'm not sure where he will be laid to rest.
Here is a little about this soulful artist of the '60s. A little history.
As far as I know he is the only entertainer born in my home town.
