Love me some Jackie Wilson I listen to his music all the time.I never heard this song it don't matter still love him.Thank you for posting this amazing artist!
No. Jackie has admitted he stole moves from Elvis. Everybody wants to paint Elvis in a negative light as though he contributed nothing, but this is just bitter ass 21st century people trying to retell history.
@@Elena-er7zp Jackie Wilson ain't took nothing from Elvis for what? stop playing....How Jackie gone get soul from a white boy...Please...Jackie ain't took nothing of the sort...
@@chaideelove1819 Do some research! Elvis and Jackie were good friends and both showed appreciation for each other. Elvis already had his own style when he went to see Billy Ward and His Dominoes in La Vegas, JW was their lead singer in Nov 1956. He recalled what he'd seen in the "million dollar quartet "sessions " noting a colored guy (he didn't know who JW was at the time) doing a “takeoff” of him. Elvis says he “sang the hell outta that song” and sang it better “than that record of mine.” He noted the way JW pronounced 'tel-ee' phone and the next time he was on the "Ed Sullivan Show" in Jan.57 he sang 'tel-ee' phone and grinned knowingly. Jackie does Elvis's mannerisms on this song and "Lonely Life" in the movie.(Elvis watched this horrible Jimmy Clanton movie just too see Jackie clips) and "Love Train" (1963) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-D6N0n5zfl5M.html . As for moves, Elvis only incorporated some classic JW moves into a couple of his movies, one when he sang "Return To Sender....Jackie was on set with him, standing off-camera watching. Jackie is well documented saying about Elvis "A lot of people have accused Elvis of stealing the black man's music, when in fact, almost every black solo entertainer has copied stage mannerisms from Elvis." They had great respect for each other as singers and performers. When Jackie was very ill and needed care in the mid-70s, Elvis paid a significant amount of his medical bills. Here is what Jackie had to say about their friendship link: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-_s0mWDSGc9g.html P.S. Elvis had plenty of soul!! Jackie and Elvis are both legends, however, I will say Jackie deserves a lot more acknowledgment for being the brilliant entertainer he was.
My older brother and sister got to see Jackie Wilson live back in the day and my sister got to take a picture with him where she was sitting on his lap, bad girl :-) I wish I had got to see him, I was too young. I only got to see Michael Jackson 7 times live, "poor me," :-) LOL. Two of the best entertainers there ever was.
a century of black music WOW! Chuck Berry, the guy was a NATURAL and boy could he sing, play the guitar and move his body phew, what a performer 👌100% ❤️
Wilson also said he was influenced by Presley, saying, "A lot of people have accused Elvis of stealing the black man's music, when in fact, almost every black solo entertainer copied his stage mannerisms from Elvis. " People who are truly creative get inspired by each other. Both Elvis and Jackie admired each other and brought their own things to the table. As they say "standing on the shoulder of giants" No one seems to care that MJ lifted a lot from Jackie. It's art.
Elvis wasn't a student of black culture. He was dirt poor white kid who used to hang out in black music clubs cause he loved the music so much. Elvis was definitely inspired by rhythm and blues but added country and crooner sounds to the mix and created something his own. No artwork is created in a vacuum.
Found a copy of the LP with this song on it the other day.. it’s pretty beat up but it’s always cool to come across Jackie Wilson (whether it’s video clips or albums)
My personal opinion there are 3 entertainer's that are the greatest dancers of all time Michael Jackson, James Brown, and Jackie Wilson all neck to neck hands down. Chris Brown not withstanding, and taking nothing away from Chris, who might be the greatest in his generation.
@@frederickgarrett1137 Your correct Sam was good but I like the Nicholas Brothers, Bill Robinson, and the Queen of tap. I like to see Michael Jackson, James Brown, and Jackie Wilson create the illusion dancing like the bottom of their shoes were 2 inches above the floor. What about Eleanor Powell (Queen of tap) I was in love at first sight ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-FeF7xiAwBlg.html She was baaadddd
Who Elvis copied all the way down to Jackie's hairstyle. Well at least his god daughter-Jody Wately had a pretty successful career in the music industry.
Wow beyond spliendid honey, my Prince who were anointed The First Prince can beyond sing like me, i love honey, keep beyond glowing like me when you return on earth shortly
YesNt 2002....you are correct , this JW video clip is from the film Teenage Millionare . And I really like your created playlists titled " Must Be Heard " and " Authentic R+B ".....They are very similar to my favorites as well . I'm guessing we are probably the same age and love the best music ever recorded ( mostly from 1957 until 1965). And by the way if you are a major JACKIE WILSON fan , I'm sure you'll enjoy my uploads of JW....just tap on my profile photo and you'll find them . You have exceptional taste in music . Be well.....Sincerely Mike Vallen .
Thanks. I’m actually 18 (and probably the only person I know who’s my age and listens to this music regularly, lol). Anyway, Peace and wellness to you also.
@@NTakaNiggatron ..Yes Nt 2002 , you are rare at your age to have such musical taste....but it means you are not a follower of trends or fashions.....you obviously are an independent free thinker and don't succumb to peer pressure .....These are admirable qualities . I of course still recommend you check out my JACKIE WILSON uploads and my Utube created playlist titled ""JACKIE WILSON'S BEST" , and please make sure that my name Mike Vallen is posted as the developer of the playlist . I was a NYC recording engineer and friend and fan of the late great Jackie Wilson and 14 years younger than Jackie Wilson.....so I'm just about 4 times your age ( I'm 71yrs old).....but rhythm and blues and the soul music from 1957 to 1965 has surely kept me young at heart ( both physically and emotionally ) . Do keep listening to the music that touches your heart and you can't go wrong . Be well young person . Sincerely Mike Vallen .
