In 1965 I had a job with DOD teaching soldiers children overseas. Midnight Hour was on jukebox in officers club & I must have spent a fortune playing it😅 was my favorite song! I'm 83 mow & still play it (and other Wilson Pickett songs) on my phone. Love him just as much now as I did 60 years ago. RIP Mr. Pickett!

Good question! What happened was that in the 90s, when the new digital sound technologies came out, that enabled people to share "files" of songs on the relatively new internet. This later became illegal. Long story short, that caused the music labels to go broke, which some people thought was a good thing. There were few artists on labels any more, no talent scouts or A&R people. No more recording contracts. But... digital technology made recording much simpler and cheaper and available to the average public. Professional studio time used to be very expensive, like $100/hour in the 70s! You couldn't record anything without a label to back you financially and provide the promotion and distribution of your work. Now, any low talent person can make their own recordings and try to market them via social media to varying degrees of success. Jacob Collier is a shining example of someone who really made that work, but he is a rare genius.
