Maybe add Otis Redding and "The Commitments"?

Steve Cropper co-wrote In the Midnight Hour

Dear Trivialist

With respect - I do not think that Steve Cropper a co-writer of In the Midnight Hour thinks his producing and playing on a recent cover version of his tune In the Midnight Hour is trivia.

Guy Sebastian got Cropper the original artist from the first release of the original song to work on the first single from The Memphis Album which was In the Midnight Hour. [1] In fact, Cropper produced the whole album of Memphis Soul standards on The Memphis Album. Cropper also toured with Sebastian and they made a dvd cd The Memphis Tour and In the Midnight Hour is on the tracklisting of this DVD CD set.

Steve Cropper is currently gigging with Sebastian in the United States. [2]

Not sure what else I can do now - so I am going to put back the deleted historical information with a more appropriate citation to support the content. This is the second time it has been deleted by editors and I am not sure why?

A possible correction... according to the allmusic database, In The MIdnight Hour was the title track on Pickett's first album, issued on the Collectables label in 1965 (not 1966 as indicated in this article).
