RESTON, Virginia (AP) -- Wilson Pickett, the soul pioneer best known
for the fiery hits "Mustang Sally" and "In The Midnight Hour," died of
a heart attack Thursday, according to his management company. He was
64.

Chris Tuthill of the management company Talent Source said Pickett had
been suffering from health problems for the past year.

A member of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, Pickett -- known as the
"Wicked Pickett" -- became a star with his soulful hits in the 1960s.
