Wilson Pickett in Philadelphia is the eleventh studio album by singer Wilson Pickett released in 1970. After cutting many of his earlier albums in the Deep South (Memphis and Muscle Shoals), Pickett headed to Philadelphia to work with Gamble and Huff at Sigma Sound Studios. The album features two of Pickett's most popular singles from the early 1970s - "Engine No. 9" (#14 Pop, #3 R&B) and "Don't Let the Green Grass Fool You" (#17 Pop, #2 R&B).
