Wilson Pickett – Live In Japan (1974/2014) [Qobuz FLAC 24bit/96 kHz]

Never before released in America, “Live In Japan” is the one and only full length document of the awesome power of Wilson Pickett live in concert. Recorded shortly after Pickett left Atlantic to sign with RCA in 1973, this extraordinary set (originally a double-LP) features a selection of Pickett’s 60s classics, new RCA favorites, and covers such as “Never My Love”, “Proud Mary”, and Free’s “Fire And Water”.

This is a two-LP reissue of a live 1973 performance, with pictures, lyrics and additional information in Japanese. Along with such classics as “Don’t Let the Green Grass Fool You,” “Midnight Hour,” “I Found a Love,” “Mustang Sally,” and “Land of 1,000 Dances,” there are also a few curiosities, such as “Sugar, Sugar,” “Never My Love,” and “Glory Hallelujah,” done in the inimitable Pickett style. The sound is very good, and the band is a solid soulful unit (not disco, thank God), making this a necessity for the soul collector. ~ Myles Boisen, Roots & Rhythm Newsletter
