Description:
Pickett’s explosive version of “Land Of 1,000 Dances” became a defining soul dance anthem, famous for the “na-na-na-na” chant. The flip, a soul-infused cover of the Beatles’ “Hey Jude”, transforms the pop hit into a horn-driven, rhythm-heavy Southern soul workout.

“Land Of 1,000 Dances” has been sampled by numerous hip-hop artists, including Public Enemy, and featured in films and commercials celebrating 60s soul. Pickett’s “Hey Jude” remains a standout example of his ability to reinterpret pop songs through a deep soul lens.
