    Not only did Jackie Wilson have the voice and the soul to go with it, but he had some of the best stage moves of any entertainer ever. He was just fantastic to watch and listen to. What a sad, sad ending to a career that was headed for the stratosphere. I still love Jackie Wilson, Mr Excitement, to this very day!

    It's difficult to compare him to anyone around today. His voice was powerful and beautiful. He presented his songs with unique energy and power. Alone at Last, Lonely Teardrops. No one tries to present these songs today, because Jackie Wilson's style was, and still is, incomparable. You had to see him to recognize what a huge talent he was, making it seem like everyone else was light years behind him.

      Jackie was never with Motown. He was signed to Brunswick, a subsidiary of Decca. He does have a Motown connection by way of Berry Gordy Jr., founder of Motown. Gordy wrote most of Wilsons early hits before founding his own label, Motown Records in Detroit. Read Gordy's autobiography To Be Loved for the whole story.

    Yes, even in the UK he is still revered. The same folks who created Wallace & Gromit, did a Cartoon Video with "Reet Petite" written by Future Owner Of Motown Records Berry Gordy. Then there was a beautiful Video to "I've Got The Sweetest Feeling" and Will Young The Very "First" Pop Idol in The UK sang it during the competition. Cheryl Ann Tweedy formerly of The UK Group Girls Aloud danced to "Reet Petite" to promote A Dance Show The Greatest Dancer in the tradition of "World Of Dance". Co-Incidentally Chris Hough was her Partner on Strictly Come Dancing (The UK Equivalent Of Dancing With The Stars), and Kimberly Walsh her Best Mate and former Band Member sang with Ne-Yo a couple of years ago on a UK TV Show.

      Thank you guys!! People who know their facts and history with those two!! They were great friends and those were exactly Elvis's words. He admired him so much. Even paid for his care, along with dick Clark, when he went into the hospital.

      @@Kinglegend-nq9dp Jackie began singing with Billy Ward and the Dominoes in 1953, several years before Chuck Berry got his start (Chuck signed with Chess Records in 1955). I think it's safe to say that Jackie worked up his stage act on his own.
