If you want to see Jackie's influence on Elvis, watch the movie clip of Elvis singing "Return to Sender" from "Girls, Girls, Girls. Jackie was on set and in the audience and Elvis was playing to him and smiling at the way he was mimicking Jackie's moves. It is a beautiful thing.❤❤❤
I remember this song as his "break out" number in the late '50s, Followed by fabulous songs like "That's Why (I Love You So)", "I'll Be Satisfied" and his absolutely wild "Baby, Work Out!".
There was nothing quite like Jackie. Sam Cook may have been the most important and imitated singer in the history of R&B/R&R, but Jackie was perhaps the greatest singer to come out of the early R&B/R&R era. To top it off his onstage performances were so dynamic he was called Mr. Excitement. Dick Clark called him the most talented singer he'd ever seen, and he saw all of the greats from that era. Watch his live performance of "To Be Loved", the old black and white version from the very old Ed Sullivan Show and you'll see what I mean.
Elvis and Jackie were close friends and Jackie said that they influenced each other. He commented that most solo black singers were influenced by Presley. Elvis paid all of his hospital bills after Jackie had a massive stoke and remained in a coma for 8 years. Elvis left instructions for his estate to keep paying Jackie's hospital bills after his death in 1977. ❤
You just don't get artists like this anymore. The likes of Jackie Wilson, James Brown, Little Richard, Sammy Davis Jr., Chuck Berry, Fats Domino, Chubby Checker, B.B. King, Johnny Cash, Eddie Cochran, Buddy Holly, Jerry Lee Lewis, Ritchie Valens, and of course, the King, Elvis Presley. I was definitely born in the wrong era. The 50's and 60's, but especially the 50's had the best music.
I think Michael Jackson was more influenced by Jackie Wilson in terms of a dynamic stage presence. Jackie Wilson always reminds me of my mother, and Saturday mornings cleaning the house when his records would be on and she would be dancing with the broom.
Jackie Wilson was incredible to me as a very young Canadian girl!! I think you would also like Chantilly Lace by The Big Bopper. He died early in his career in the plane crash in 1959 that killed him Buddy Holly and Richie Valens two others you would like
TO BE LOVED sung by Jackie is incredible!
You will never "get" Jackie Wilson unless you do his live performances.
He was fire on stage. Amazing dancer and showman.
I was a teenager, living in the northwest, listening to the radio when I first heard Jackie Wilson. I loved this song.
Check out Doggin' Around and Higher & Higher. Both big R&B hits for Jackie. RIP
and "Whispers"
Mr. Excitement was electrifying on stage. His LIVE performances are legendary. IMHO

When you listen to this and watch him dancing to the song… it’s so much better. He was a great entertainer.
Check out his live performance of Oh, Danny Boy!
I just love when young ppl listens to "old music" today, like i listen rap-music (not ganster-rap). Greetings from grandmom
One of my favorite singers!

Would like to see you react to Ritchie Valens he was 17 when he passed away in a plane crash with buddy holly and big bopper the day the music died
Love Jackie Wilson and so did Elvis Presley. Elvis and Jackie were best friends.

My sister attended school with Jackie’s daughter in Detroit.

Most solo black singers were influenced by Presley??!
@@amontaineaurore4700, I said that Jackie Wilson made that comment. Elvis was influenced by many singers, many of them black.❤

No auto-tune here like the BS of today.
