Wilson Pickett - Hey Jude (w/ Duane Allman)

- Before there was The Allman Brothers Band, Duane Allman was trying to attract any kind of attention and make a name for himself. The music business is hard you know. Though immortalized now as one of the greatest guitarist of all time, it was Gregg who was more sought out in the record business in the early days. So Duane made ends meet by being a session guitarist in studios while he decided what his next move would be.
It was in November of 1968, when Wilson Pickett - already a star - showed up at Rick Halls Fame Studio in Muscle Shoals, AL wanting to record, but with no material or ideas. Duane, who was working for Rick but was not even the main, lead session guitarist, suggested that they cut "Hey Jude", which Rick thought was "the most preposterous thing" he had ever heard and Wilson agreed they would NOT do it. The Beatles had just recently released it and it was climbing the charts. But Duane somehow convinced them both it was a good idea because it "was" a Beatles song and it "would" be Number 1. And, as you hear, it was a GREAT idea. This song sparked the beginning of Duane's future nickname and the formation of ABB.
The story goes that Duane was already known as "Dog" because of his looks. As you might imagine, the hippie look that Duane sported was few and far between in late 1960's Alabama. When Wilson heard the way Duane played he started calling him "Sky Man". Not just for his "out of this world" playing but also for his "out of this world" state of mind he liked being in (recreational activities for those who still don't get it). From there the name somewhere morphed into "Skydog". Rick Hall was also so amazed that he phoned Jerry Wexler and put the phone up to the speakers on the playback so he could hear the song. Needless to say, he was also blown away by Duane's playing. And in Wilson's defense of this DA story, his vocals in this song are what they are in all his songs -- AWESOME.
Jerry Wexler was Wilson's main producer for Atlantic who wasn't able to be there and gave the reins to Hall. Wexler, along with Phil Walden, later in '69, started Capricorn Records in Macon, GA and we all know that story. Also, Phil Walden is also the man who introduced and brought in Jaimoe to play with Duane. They started jamming together before any of the other Brothers joined in.
Well anyway - this is for your listening pleasure and hope you enjoy it. If you want to know more of this story, I highly recommend pp. 80-88 of "Skydog: The Duane Allman Story" by Randy Poe. It is where this info came from and it is the best book ever if you are a Duane and/or ABB fan. And the Muscle Shoals Rhythm Section...thank you...you helped change the world and the music for the better. - เพลง

Anyone still listening in 2024? RIP this double dynamic duo. Both taken way too soon. They don't make music like this anymore 😪.
I do
Add ottis
You Betcha
June 2024. Beautiful

Paul McCartney must stand in awe of where Wilson and Duane took it. They blew the roof off this song! What a document of musical greatness.
Hello. I agree with you. Till now, this is the version I listen to.
Best regards. 🎵🎼🎶🎸
Haha guys this is the original
Was in Africa when this came out. Giving Black power and white power to this music any time.
They both must be remembered to the music industry. Rest In Peace, both. 😊
Fantastic!
Wilson Pickett is so underrated it's a crime... Seriously
Nah! Just the media. More folks than you know feel he got his due. Ask around.
And you are an ignorant fool.
To the modern drone everything they just discovered is underrated.
@@sgt.thundercok4704 Sarge, you ain't never lied!
It is a crime❤
This song is the reason Eric Clapton had Duane play on Layla. The ending riff blew him away. Wilson said to Duane “we can’t cover this song. It’s number #1”. Duane said, “That’s why we can”.❤
I thought Wilson was reputed to have said he wouldn't sing a song with the refrain "Hey Jew"
Wow! I didn't know Duane played on Layla! I love everything I've heard Duane play.
I love the story of EC hearing this on the radio while driving and immediately found a phone to find out who was playing the guitar. He said he had to know "right now"!
@@stevedavis4513He did say that, Duane had to explain it was about John's son and for musical reasons they changed it from Hey Jules to Hey Jude.
SkyDog sent me here..🎸🎷
I wonder who he or she is?? 😹😂😹
Wilson Pickett and Duane Allman just proved that blacks and whites can make beautiful music together. They've also proven that we can work together for a better world. Just look at what you're typing on, a white empty background that says absolutely nothing without the black letters that make up the words. Now you have something. These 2 men are truly gifted and I thank them for this beautiful music that I can enjoy for as long as I live.
Beautifully put
+Jennifer King before that was all the guys at the Stax studios Booker T & the Mg's with Otis & Pickett so it happens alround us thankfull but yeah very well put
I'm sorry but this is so much better than beatles. Sky Dog Duane Allman on guitar and the soulful incredible vocals of Wilson Pickett.
Oh and yes you are correct...we've been working together a long time but there are parties on both sides that don't want us to work together. Spit on them.
+Jennifer King What about Eddie Lang and Lonnie Johnson
Folks-this is pure magic. No pitch control, auto-tune, no nothin’-just God given talent. With Wilson wailing with his voice and Duane ‘wailing’ with his guitar, we are blessed to have this. Thanks guys-we miss ya! ❤😇👍 4:00
Duane and Wilson did indeed take a sad song and make it better. Made it perfect in fact.
Nice
Exactly right
Kills me
perfect comment
Paul McCartney is being disrespected in this comments section. I adore Wilson and Duane, but some folks are flat out disrespectful to the amazing musician and man Paul McCartney. If you don't know how brilliant of a singer/songwriter/and insanely gifted musician he is, than you should do some research. He's arguably as gifted as anyone who's made music in the last 100 years.
I can listen to this song all day long. ❤
Anybody else get goosebumps listening to this? Wow!
every time
Yep
No! It is a shit version!
It's NOT ! Opinions are like dump holes everybody's got one and they are all S_i_ky. EXCEPT M I N E !
Sorry honey it is nothing more than cheap wedding singing.
In the pantheon of great Beatles’ covers, Wilson Picketts version of Hey Jude is astounding in both emotional depth and musical execution. Canonical. Stands alone.
Side by side.with Cocker's version of "With a little help.from my friends"
yes indeed! ❤️ love this cover, Wilson Pickett rocks:)
Birth of southern rock personifyed
Say it son!
ERIC Clapton reached out to find out who was playing the guitar. Wilson's strong vocals make this so special
We need soul, that's missing in today's music. The pure emotion from strong men. Today it's like that's taboo, very sad state.
absolutely. I write and record lots and loads of original tunes... like Percy Sledge and Ray Charles. Have you heard the latest Stones single, "Scarlet", with Jimmy Page on guitar solo?
It's not "soul" thats missing. Today's music is autotuned and quantized which takes the humanity out of the music, everything is exactly on pitch and on time.
@@UmVtCg This is why I write and record my own music, letting the reverb of the drums bleed into the vocal mix and I refuse to use a click beat too. (it's just GAY!!)
Remko It seems you’re not looking into the burgeoning independent scene available from the internet. I’d really recommend it.
Part of what we've been hearing for at least the past twenty years is the overlordship of a few A&R men and producers, putting a big emphasis on maximizing profit over quality of product, because the CEO's that run all the big labels now insist on it, if they want to keep their paychecks. Sad state of affairs, indeed.
Nobody can sing this song this way. It’s insanely perfect. I’ve blown many minds by playing this for friends. My favorite.
Yes, Paul McCartney
Yeah man! That dude put all three of his balls into it when he sang!
@@eltakatan1173 no
What about this guy
th-cam.com/video/w51FU_vAsQM/w-d-xo.html
No one will ever match Wilson Pickett on this…. Ever
The Beatles are, in my opinion, the best band ever. But Pickett, Duane, and the Muscle Shoals people, put so much heart and soul into this... When they hit that groove...! This is my favorite version.
Those horns really complete the cycle!
This song, just like many other Beatles covers that have been made, is only further proofs to how the Fab Four were as much the greatest composers of their and of all time as arid and mechanical performers of their own songs. This song is quite simply better than original, not just "different". Just pour a soulful fluid into their irreproachable pop engine and you'll dramatically increase the song value.
They were known as the SWAMPERS
Jerrymylitus
Damn right!
That gospel scream is one of a kind.
right
Best I ever heard
Prince's scream is pretty great also
That man answering with his guitar is one of a kind also
I've heard of James Brown scream, Joe Cocker scream, but gospel scream tops it all.
Two men with tons of soul.
Two tones
And one lady.
Sky dog and the wicked Wilson picket
Rest in peace Wilson Pickett and Duane Allman, Blessings and hugs 🤗💞💓😊❤️💕☺️🙏🙏!
Was at the Apollo theater when he got booed for doing this, and he told the audience that they were a bunch of assholes and left the stage. Good for him, and RIP Wilson, you are sorely missed
Did he really have a rack of shotguns on stage with him? Keith Richards said in his autobiography that Wilson did
Didn't see them, but was towards the back.
Didn't see any, but was back enough that it was hard to see the stage well enough
Wilson Pickett always had guns around.
Julia - can you provide more info on the concert you saw at the Apollo? What year? Love to hear more details. Love Wilson - killer voice and he died way too soon. Thanks.
This version of Hey Jude is the finest cut ever pressed to vinyl, ever. A min out when Pickett screams and Duane let's hus guitar fly..... just wow.
Hj Dd if you really want your life to change check out Jessi Colter’s mrs. Waylon Jennings..version from about the same time wow talk about bad country karaoke
Fantastic 😅😅😅😊
Fantastic 😊😊
R.I.P. to both musical geniuses: to Wilson Pickett and Duane Allman who lost his life at only 24 years old.
Gone waaaaay too soon😢
Wilson Pickett's vocals are second to none, AMEN! And right there in the studio that fateful day, little known Duane Allman gave birth to "southern rock". Goddamn if that don't blow your skirt up not much will.
Amen!
That pic of Wilson, laughing, and Duane hangs from my wall - I nicked it off the Net. Didn't know about Jude though - dear me so good.
Duane's vibe is untouchable
🙏
Whose listening in 2021? We need this more than ever. Black and White Ebony and Ivory.
Such a tired and hackneyed cliché. Who thinks, in 2021, we can come up with something better than that??
2024 listening.
2024. ❤
2024, my friend. I'm 63.
Wilson didn't want record this song, but, finally, he did it because Duane. When Barry Goldberg listened to the song in a room hotel in Muscle Shoals said that he almost passed out and he started shaking, while Wilson and Duane were jumping up and down on the bed like little kids.
This song was suggested to Wilson by Duane while everyone was away from the studio at a white only restaurant in Muscle Shoals. They didn't allow blacks or long haired hippies. Some say it was the birth of southern rock. All I know is that it was magic
Muscle Shoals baby!
Yeah!
When it comes to singing, Wilson Pickett really rocks the house.
not my house
@@davidfilipini4064 A tie between Wilson Pickett, Otis Redding, Aretha as favourites but really loved all of them - so much that I missed Stairway to Heaven when it was on the charts!!
I genuinely cannot think of a better cover version than this. Ever.
I like this one better than the original one by the Beatles. Wilson Pickett’s voice Duane’s guitar playing is an incredible combination.
Right up there with Willie Nelson's Always on my mind and Springsteens Chimes of Freedom for me.
Hendrix's All Along The Watchtower
* better version
m.th-cam.com/video/w51FU_vAsQM/w-d-xo.html
"Take a sad song, and make it better" And so they did.
My UBER driver was playing Wilson Pickett and right as I was getting dropped off this song comes on.. I stayed in the van right until it was over!
I bet Mr. Uber enjoyed it as much as you did.
Awesome about the music. But Uber is bad lol. Take a taxi!
I just choked up and utter "damn"...lol
The story behind this masterpiece is incredible
Feel, you can't montage through the entire life of someone trying to find themselves only to walk out the door when climax arrives!
This is powerful as Hell. Wilson Pickett knocked it out of the ballpark.
Best cover ever of a song that was #1 on the charts at the time. Gave birth to Southern Rock
I loved Wilson Pickett and his music. What a voice!
My man!
The last minute and a half where Wilson goes wild and Duane plays crazy too gave me some chills all over !
he he he yeah, very warming isn't it..at least for me!
Seems like they were dueling each other at one point and the background singers came in to aide them both lol
I love the song up till that point but I didn't appreciate the screaming during the solo
Should of turned his guitar up :(
Crazy that such a beautiful song, reproduced by legends who are long gone now, black and white can't be thrown out there for all of us to hear more often. The message is UNITY and OUR world needs more of this. RIP Duane and Wilson, amazing talents and good will ambassadors
All we need is love
Recorded at Fame Studios, Muscle Shoals. Picket, Allman, Wexler, Hall and the legendary Muscle Shoals Rhythm Section. A bunch of geniuses gathered in one place.
A must see doc imo!!
No Wexler in this case. The first he ever heard of Duane was when Rick Hall played the song for him over the phone. He bought Duane's contract right then!
Truly the birth of Southern Rock.🎸
One of the greatest vocalists together with one of the greatest guitarists - doesn't get any better than this.
From one of the greatest song writers.
You got that right
The mighty Wicked Wilson Pickett! Damn! That brotha is badd! Where has the music gone?
It's evolved into shit, Mr Gregory C.... and still creeping forward
You'll have to ask lil uzi vert and Katy Perry..
who are they
Exactly.@@juanrodriguez-ry6yt
Gregory C they don’t produce real music today.
Goosebumps
No one comes close to igniting the true passion in this song than Wilson Pickett
Wilson Pickett absolutely nails this
HELL YEAH HE DOES!
Simply poignant. And as a die-hard Beatle fan, I have to admit that Wilson Pickett completely nailed the song. Both are great, but the "soulness" that Pickett added to this gem is incredible.
maristela1968 this isn't the first Beatles song that has been covered into a great soul tune. I just remember "with a little help from my friends" by Joe cocker, but there might be more
I think this version is better than the beatles’s one. And I’m a die hard fan too. When you take Beatles songs and mix them with other genres and with the right artist. They can become even better
Ya Wilson stole it...but he OWNED IT!
Nothing beats the original. I must not be used to this genre that he plays in. I feel like he screams where the na na bit is. The original I find is slower and calmer. This version is alright but definitely not better.
Die-hard Beatles fan, as well, and this is a great version. Everyone's a critic but there's nothing to critique here. A great homage since Allman/Pickett interpret the original song and bring out its elemental brilliance.
There's nothing that makes me more goosebumps, than a fantastic singer who screams the hell out of his voice. Just amazing!!
That scream is called "singing it like you feel it" its the soul in soul music.
Holy Hell! Is that not a voice?!?! Pure talent, no tricks, no correction, no bullshit.
Love the whole thing, but at around 2:40 I get goosebumps every time.
Scream from Pickett. Horns from the Swampers. Then the incredible guitar solo by Allman. A perfect combination.
That Muscle Shoals sound at its best. For sure
It don't get no better
That scream was a much needed break from the rather sedate Beatles version. The brassy horns screaming on top filled in nicely. I only wish Skydog would have lit it up right then, also. Imagine a slide solo that took front stage as the horns blared and Wilson screamed as filler for a blistering slide solo.
It really was one of those golden shining moments in musical history, wasn't it?
@@garlandmoney9310, sedate? Really? Paul screams all over the last 4 minutes of the Beatles’ version.
This literally gives me chills. So great on every level. One of the best covers of a Beatles song and definitely the best cover of Hey Jude I’ve ever heard. ❤❤❤❤
Βeatles put no heart in `Hey Jude. Picket kicks it to heaven`
Hands down the best cover version of the Beatles or any other cover song. Gives me chills everytime I listen to it. The musical arrangements on behalf of the Swampers is awesome. These guys are top notch and never got the true recognition they deserve. The rest is history with Duane and Wilson. Two fantastic musicians who left their music til the end of time!
Taxman by Stevie Ray Vaughan is also a brilliant cover
I propose Joe Cocker with 'A Little Help' for the title. He clearly improved on the song and is famous for it. Other did great Covers, but none came close to exceeding the Original as Joe did.
How can anyone not like this rendition of this great song?
Very easily. Please tell me what you like about it. Serious question. The reason I don't like this version is that Paul McCartney wrote it for Julian Lennon to help Julian get through his dad's divorce and the Yoko invasion. It was a ballad for a sad little boy and was not intended to be a Wilson Pickett scream fest.
@@gingerhughes7976 Cope harder. He only screams in the latter part of the song.
This version by far exceeds anything even original. Wilson’s powerful voice and Duane’s guitar so sweet and full of soul and emotion. Goosebumps!!
I was named after this song. I thought I loved the Beatles version but I think I like this one even more. Lately I've felt lost listening to this song somehow just makes me feel better and helps me solve my problems. Music is a powerful thing. it can change life's and change ones approach on life.
Keep rockin :)
hey jude, don't me down.
no pressure
Check out Wilson Pickett singing this live with the Bee Gees. You'll be blown away.... the energy and fun they're having... as emotional as this recording is the live is even better. (Tho without Allman)
I love the Beatles but I prefer this version as well.
Named my boy after this song too 👍
I didn’t exactly name my son after this song but I love the Beatles and I loved the name so… lol but what’s interesting is I’ve never heard of Wilson Pickett until I moved to Prattville Alabama. I’ve went to the Wilson Pickett festival multiple times. But today just got curious enough to look him up after seeing a play they are putting on about his life and stumbled upon this cover. It’s the little things in life. Haha
This was recorded in Mussle Shoals Alabama. When the recording engineers went to lunch Dwayne Allman set up and recorded this song. this was a time when the South was still pretty much segregatedand Duane Allman did not want Wilson Pickett to fill out of place at some place to eat. When the engineers got back to the office and they saw what he had done they were dumbfounded at how good it sounded.
They weren’t going to let a hairy hippy have a seat any sooner than they would have let Wilson.
@@iMagdog1 this statement is more true of my earlier memories of how hippies were viewed by everyday society......they weren't romanticized until decades later.??........were considered filthy
B.S. Rick Hall tells the story how it came about, here: th-cam.com/video/k9nfwPd6Bcw/w-d-xo.html
Long haired hippies were less welcome in Alabama than Wilson Pickett in those days.
“I remember hearing Wilson Pickett's 'Hey Jude' and just being astounded by the lead break at the end. I had to know who that was immediately - right now." Eric Clapton
DUANE ALLMAN...That's who! Layla! Him n Eric were buddies. Thank you so much for bringing Duane Allman up. In all the reviews it's Wilson's vocals. Nobody seems to understand that this is the coming out party for one of the best players of all time. At age 20. He'd be gone just 4 years later at 24 after forming the Allman Brothers Band. If him n Berry wudda lived...I'm from Macon GA. Home to the Allman Brothers Band, Otis Redding, Little Richard, Zac Brown, Jason Aldean, and many more from just a small southern town. Duane was also considered one of, it not the best bottleneck player ever. Thank you Sir. The end and outro where they are both pushing ea other higher n higher but not stepping on ea other shoes is just EPIC.
Eric Clapton knew he was listening to a great player.
Eff Jason Aldean, the no talent racist POS.@@PastorOfMuppets74
One of the best tracks of the 1960s. The Wicked Pickett meets the Skydog, Duane Allman, and they do up a Beatles tune right!
This single was literally the first record I ever purchased. I was 10 years old. I wanted the Beatles version, couldn't find it and bought this even though I'd never heard Wilson Pickett and had no idea who he was. I haven't heard it in more than 50 years. It's really great. That man could really sing. Duane was spot on choosing this song.
The greatest soul scream in history. An absolute Soul Legend.
Some people to recognize now this is so soul
Those two couldn't go to lunch with the other guy cause one was Black and the other has Long hair. They stayed & Duane suggested Hey Jude.
As much as I love and respect the Beatles, two of The Beatles songs were taken away from them by men who did them better. Wilson Pickett and Duane Allman with Hey Jude and Joe Cocker with I get by with a little help from my friends. Just no denying that they own those songs now!
Elton John's Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds was great also. He took it to number 1.
Also: "Help" by Tina Turner. This is the way it's meant to be. John Farnham did a great redention of this song too.
Great? Yes. Different? Yes. Better? No. I'll take The Beatles' version of those songs any day.
My FIRST time hearing this was about 5 a.m. in the morning, while in the ghetto, walking to the bus stop. Almost missed the bus. NEARLY FAINTED. JUST BEAUTIFUL!!!!
A short while back I was sitting with some friends, all around 50 and talking about past R&B singers. I mentioned Wilson Picket and they brushed me off. I played this song and they were blown away. I never found out about until maybe 10 years ago and that was only because of a Duane Allman bio. This song and man is a hidden treasure.
Wilson lends that heart felt soul, Duane Allman throws gas on the fire and just burns !
As good as Wilson and Duane mesh together on this track nothing is ever mentioned to the excellent groove that Roger Hawkins and Jerry Jemmott lay down here. The bass line in this song gives it such a groove. It locks so well with the drums.
David Hood on bass
roger and jerry !!!!
there's probably no greater compliment than having these two legends cover your song
Duane and Wilson are playing this in heaven and Jimi Hendrix is watching going wow
Wilson and Duane.
This song is just pure, pedal to medal power. It’s a force!!
I wish there was a video of this performance. The world missed out on a gem.
There's a clip of him duetting this with Tom Jones somewhere on TH-cam.
Duane just had the touch!!!!!! Amazing guitar playing.
Tom Howland This was THE BIRTH of Southern Rock!!!!
it's amazing he was so young when he died....he was going to get much better
I get cancer everytime i hear that, so much overused phrase.
Yes, Skydog will always be my favorite guitar player!
Mine too, without a doubt., So, does "overstating" the truth, change it? Nah, don't think so!
This entire Song Embodies the Beauty of American Music.. Great Vocals, Guitars, Horns and Percussion.
Wow!! Beautiful Beautiful music. Love it..
For some reason I needed to hear this version of "Hey Jude". Just so much negative energy in the air and this song how Mr. Pickett did it kind of puts me a settle down mood.
Hey Roger, Wilson brings it up to a hair raising level, don't he?
I hear, brother, the world needs more of this.
Exactly! It sound like "the times, too.....Ahh, the 70's!!
Roger you get a chance watch muscle shoals documentary, my world growing up in the hills of Tennessee
Roger James right it has more feeling in it
2019 and this version is still as strong today as the day they recorded it on tape. God bless Wilson, Duane and the Muscle Shoals sound.
That Muscle Shoals sound changed the music world.
Where has this been all my life?! It's magic!
Welcome! 😮
Magical. Simply, magical.
And this is where Southern Rock comes from. All of it. That one solo. This was the moment.
This has nothing to do with southern rock, you probably thinking about the abb which Duane is part of it.
@@jokkergar You mean Duane, what did the solo on this one, before the ABB existed?
And don't u forgot it!
This man is truly a legend! He is also what a true soul singer should be. Rest in peace brother Pickett
The great Wilson Pickett and the great Duane Allman!! Love this version of Hey Jude!!
no u don't
What made this such an unusual recording was Duanes guitar solo. Soul solos were mostly reserved for the saxophone. Duanes underlying solo with Picketts voice at the end.. was inspiring.
Duane had a feel for accompanying a voice with his guitar that doesnt intrude on the singer. He would add just enough to round out the sound and raw emotion. Check out his work on Aretha Franklin's "It ain't fair". Another perfect example.
Thank you Wilson Pickett and Duane Allman for your sweet, soulful "Hey Jude.' RIP
Eric Clapton said Duane's solo on this cut was his favorite of all time.
***** d-bag
+billy bur am not that impressed by this very solo but Duane's other solo on stormy monday (live fillmore) has always blown my mind
+vinobody I am always amazed when I hear Statesboro Blues. The slide work in that song always sends shivers down my spine.
vinobody thats funny because i find this solo to be lackluster too. His tone is too thin. And his playing isnt super explosive. but then you get to live at the filmore and its some of the best playing ever recorded imo
Joey Chapman I don't get it either.. By Duane Allman standards this solo is middling at best. The power in the song belongs to the great vocal performance from Pickett.
OMG, I am old as dirt n never heard this before, two of my favorite people, both underrated and overtalled. Who ever posted, THANKS
This is how it is done- never gets old
Legend has it Clapton declared the guitar beginning at 3:00 to be the best he'd ever heard.
Yea Ive heard that story too..then he wanted to know who the guitarists was he so badly wanted to meet..
And thats how duane went to record layla 🤘
He said it in in his autobiography. Said it was a religious experience for him
And he's right.
He said it was the best R&B guitar. Important distinction
@@jimseligman5282 He said the best rock guitar in an r&B song
Duane. Always the right touch at the right time.
recorded at muscle shoals. this recording is considered the birth of southern rock.
Just when ya thought you knew a song ......and this is an old , old cut of a old song but I've never heard it done better, never 👍. Thx. 🙏
This song is incredible! Wilson Picket, the man, and Duane Allman, who left us way too early! And when Duane starts jamming, the song changes. Wow!
Wilson picket and Duane Allman in Muscle Shoals- what an amazing joy to hear.
Julia Hamilton Diana Ross love songs

Paul McCartney wrote this song for Julian Lennon ( John’s son.)
Thank you Mr.El.
I grew up in the 60's and was already a Wilson Pickett fan.
He had a unique voice.
I didn't learn about Duane til' the mid 80's.
THIS is what a collabaration should sound like.
Two legends
PERFECT!! Muscle, Pickett and DUAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANE!!! RIP RIP
Now this is the first time I've
heard the late "Wicked" Wilson Pickett's cover
of The Beatles' 1968 top hit....Fantastic!!! 💖
These two gentlemen are rockin' together in the Spirit World...
R.I.P. Wilson Picket(1941-2006) and Duane Allman(1946-1971) 🕯🕯
I love the photo of Pickett and Allman laughing together . I would love to know the joke . Two great blokes having fun . One of those things lost in history .
Just close your eyes.
INCREDIBLE !!!!!
I wish this was longer..... I could listen to Duane and Wilson wail for ever!
ha! i wonder if he would have held out for a longer version ..damn did he wail!
I feel the same. That mix of voice and guitar is beautiful. It can't really be put into words how good it sounds
Radio had a strict three minutes or less if you wanted to get your record on the air. However the Muscle Shoals players had a habit of jamming on long after the cut mark. Boz Scaggs said Duane and the Swampers went into overdrive while recording Somebody Loan Me A Dime at the former casket factory, better known as Muscle Shoals Sound Studios.
He said somewhere in Sheffield, Alabama, there's a can with about 45 minutes of Loan. Can you imagine? Duane, Eddie Hinton and Boz were own fire. Esteemed drummer Roger Hawkins was leading the group everywhere, one of the best session keyboard wizards ever, Barry Becket was on top and Duane, due to the tiny size of the studio, was locked in a 3 foot by 3 foot toilet with his amp, blowing shingles off the building!
Of course that wasn't a first. A few months earlier, the Rolling Stones showed up for a secret recording session.
They were to record three songs. The first was an old blues tune called You Gotta Move. Next up was a song that wasn't finished. Keith Richards went to Florence for some Minie Pearl's Fried chicken, came back to the studio and locked himself in the John and finished writing..... Wild Horses.
The toilet seat has been replaced by a new one but, not to worry. If you make the trip to tour the studios and thousands come every year since they've been opened to the public, the original toilet seat hangs on a studio wall.
During the sessions for a song called Brown Sugar, they were revved and ready. The Stones record with every thing cranked to high! I think it was Swamper David Hood who was standing outside whenthey let it fly. He said he had never seen a building shake like that!
Keith said they had intended to come back the following year to
record Exile on Main street but they had been barred from coming into the country for obvious reasons.
Oh well.
I don't care what others say, but THIS is way much better than the Beatles version. Wilson has put his SOUL in it!
Facts
Paul’s version is the most boring song ever this is real love the way the horns come in and the bass travels all over and of course Sky Dog
Absolutely
@@herkhaston1915 I much prefer the Beatles' version. It builds up to a crescendo that is so profoundly uplifting. The chorus lasts for half the song but doesn't get old. To me, Pickett has a soulful voice but it feels like he oversings from the start and as a consequence loses the opportunity for an incredible, moving finale.
@@jerseiferth3127 I’m a big Beatles fan but only like one are two of Paul’s songs. Oh Johnny is the best thing ever sang or wrote. Love almost everything John did .
This song needs to be played weekly.....FAITHFULLY!!!!

Atheist here, but you early got me going. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
and hey dude, you just made this song so much better.
Wilson's voice with Duane Allmans guitar....PERFECTION
The 41 people who gave this a thumbs down don't know JACK SHIT about music.
These two took Hey Jude to whole new heights! I just love how music has no shape, knows no color... only love is what there is!
So so sad that we'll never hear such soulful sounds ever again.
18winsagin yea we will, it’s called the repeat button on this song !!!!!
@@TheGuitarMan71 Hasaaaaa that is so right I've been doing it for years, just didn't realize it my man
My buddy Dave Panzer was Wilson Pickett's guitar player before he died. They ended every show with this song. Also Listen to Beth Hart and Joe Bonamassa do a incredibly passionate I'd rather go blind boy. The Etta James song
Never say never
Wilson Pickett and Duane Allman were forces of nature on this song!!!!
