As such, several songs have been written about the Mustang. Although some people might think of Mustang music as the purr of their exhaust as they make their way down the highway, others take a different approach. These ten songs, which were written and inspired by Ford's long-standing pony car, the Mustang, are best listened to at high volume while cruising in your American classic. 01 of 10 Mustang Sally (Wilson Pickett) Photo Courtesy of Amazon.Com Wilson Pickett was known for his rock & rock and he was known for his R&B. What most Mustang enthusiasts remember Pickett for is his catchy song "Mustang Sally" which was originally written by Mack Rice in 1965. The song became popular in 1966 when Pickett covered the tune. The song has since been covered by Buddy Guy, Sam & Dave, Los Lobos, and Bruce Springsteen, just to name a few. 02 of 10 Wild, Wild Mustang (Dick Dale & The Del-Tones) Photo Courtesy of Amazon.Com Many say Dick Dale invented sixties surf rock.
