Whites had more rhythm back in day. All this conservative crap screwed up America's natural rise as a distinct civilization. All the damn assassinations and pumped in drugs destroyed a funky culture that was really getting along if you just left it alone.
My dad always listens to jackie Wilson! Mr Wilson had it all looks, voice and the moves. I could look at this over and over and never get tired of watching it. ❤
This is not fair to Jackie Wilson. Of course everyone is going to vote for James Brown you're playing his song. Now next time pit them against each other but with Jackie Wilson's song.
Love the authentic wardrobe of the day…. Headbands & “the flip” hairdos. My sisters insisted on wearing their skirts hemlines halfway up the knee w/ knee socks. The sexual 60’s on the rise. Soon to come…Mini skirts, go go boots, freak out colors & a fucking war to wash it all down. 🤩
One thing so amazing about watching this old TV clip from the mid 1960s is just how much of Jackie Wilson's dynamism, athleticism, and incredible showmanship comes through even here!
Jackie was known for being a dynamic artist on stage, he was known as "Mr. Excitement". He could out do James Brown without even trying. In his time, he was amazing, would "dance" from one end of the stage to the other doing amazing moves. Unfortunately, there is video of those performances. This is a performance 8 years later. I had seen jackie "Live" approximately 150 times and I think this was NOTt one of his best performances, but all my friends, who had never seen Jackie, think this is one of the best concerts they had ever seen by any artists.
