RIP "Wicked" Pickett
My favorite song is 6345789.
Ever notice that the Marvellete's phone number was Beachwood 45789. Hmmmmm. Coincidence? I think not.
A friend of mine (Ricky Fante) played him on that short-lived ABC series "American Dreams." They had him sing "Land of 1,000 Dances," which was ok. And Ricky did a great job, both with the dancing and the vocals. Still, I think the warm sound of Pickett was better expressed in 6345789.
