Something occurred to me that prompted me to add this little footnote to my thoughts. It isn't Mustang Sally that I don't like. It's Mustang Sally done by copy bands. Mustang Sally as done by Wilson Pickett with that great Muscle Shoals house band was killer. But bands don't have horn sections, most (around here) don't have a keyboard player. Playing Mustang Sally with no organ and horns is like eating tuna salad, just without the mayo and the relish. Tuna salad without mayo and relish is tuna.

So it isn't Mustang Sally that I hate. It's stripped down (plain tuna) Mustang Sally as done by guitar, bass and drummer that I hate. And most copy bands do it too slow as well.
