“Jealous Love” #50 3/2/1968

Co-written by Bobby Womack and King Curtis, this Wilson Pickett R&B Top 20 tune may have hit close to home. Apparently Wilson was insanely jealous of his then-girlfriend, Dovie Hall. By many accounts, he couldn’t stand a guy even looking at her (much less talking to her) and would fly into an uncontrolled rage when that happened. For that reason, those around Wilson pretty much learned to stay away from Dovie. Didn’t stop him from doing what (and who) he wanted, though.
