back in 86,,reet petite went to #1 in england a song from 1957/58 went to #1 in 1985 in england that was so cool,,i was and still am a huge wilson fan,,i love watching him,,,here's a cool fact elvis and jackie were friends they were tight,,if you saw the movie return to sender you notice elvis's new look,,and dance moves,,jackie taught him those moves and look,,,look for the video here return to sender you'll see,,love it
Some more of great JackieWilson & this was sedate! The TV of those days did not let black men do too much suggestive dancing, but u can see how graceful he is. Look at his Moonwalk. 1958 30 yrs b4 Michael took it.
@k29137 If you think his moves here were something, they're NOTHING compared to what he did live. I saw him perform once and he whipped that audience into a frenzy (black and white alike). He did splits, twirled his jacket around in the air like he was going to throw it into the audience and the girls went crazy trying to grab for it. What a show. One that I will never forget.
am 13 and am on my granddads account but my my this is amazing my granddad usually says o this is brill about all the singers from back in the day and being nice i just say oo yer there good and am in to dancing omg i have been trying for ages to get that foot movement because it was brilliant i wish i could do it its fantastic ....... i no were Michael jackson got his moves haha i mean why has this kind of music and dancing faded away its prophetic what more can i say this is brill
Wow, what great memories I have of watching Jackie Wilson when I was a kid. He was a terrific singer and dancer. Lots of people have copied his "moves" (i.e. Michael Jackson). But Jackie was cooler than his mimics. Very smooth and very talented. Too bad he died so young.
In 1975 J.W.got a hearth attack on stage when he sang:..my hearth is bleeding...in the song Lonely Teardrops. He was in coma more than 8 years. Elvis visited him in hospital severel times, and when he found out that J.W. was broke, he paid all his hospital bills until Wilsons death. I hope they Rock together in heaven !
His performances is one of the reasons that generation became so corrupt, they descended into degeneracy of the 60s and 70s not to mention, he and others like him were pioneers and paved the way to even greater corruption of the latter decades by other artists, actors, entertainers etc.
Elvis presley could not have paid all of Mr. Jackie Wilsons hospital bills because Presley died in 1977 and Mr. Wilson left this earth to rest in power in 1984. Mr. Dick Clarke a true Friend of this stand alone legend, payed Jackie's bills up until his passing.
Oh yeah, you can see Jackie Wilson in Elvis Presley. Every song and dance in a movie, you could see jackies moves no doubt. Great artist taken away to soon.
Gm edagdwg thanks for sharing this story of what happens when you have what it takes to have a real man in your life soooooooo blessed to know God for myself as a child of God true love is real only God can give you that gift linda j. ☮️☮️☁️🐻🐻🐻🐻🐻
@bkatayab you took the words out of my mouth i was just going to say what you said ..funny that hey ! to me i have tears what some of the black people had to go though hey ..god bless you for thinking like me but pls always respcet ..becuz we have to understand people with power hey grrrr ! bless out to alll
Mr. Style: no sense in starting war over this. You are entitled to support whatever talent makes you happy! I guess I am a harsh judge of MJ, besides not caring for his voice I detest the way he relates to kids, and yes, I know I am judging. We are all, judges sir. we just do our best to get thru this life as we can. I thank the person who put up these great and rare tapes of Jackie Wilson. One of the most talented people of my lifetime.
That's not the moonwalk. That's the Wilson shuffle. The Moonwalk is a smooth linear movement. Mastered by the late great Michael Jackson. Taught to him by Jeffrey Daniel's of Shalamar fame in 1980. Daniel's said he taught Micheal the moonwalk. Back slide whatever you want to call it. And Michael sat on it until that unforgettable performance at Motown 25 in 1983. And nothing was ever the same after that.
wow!!! what a talented man....just a pity i just discovered him today...01:52 2015...on the eve of christmas ...of 2015...Anyway Almighty Father has blessed many with good singers...Amen
I don't understand why people need to criticize MJ so much on every Jackie Wilson video. MJ was great, an icon, and a legend, and so was Jackie. Leave it at that. And please don't ever call stepping backwards a moonwalk again. If your feet aren't gliding, it's not a moonwalk, you are literally walking backwards.
Agree they were both amazing talents. And we are fortunate to have had them both in this world. It's all over the internet and I'm sick of it too Elvis vs Michael. Michael vs James Bromw. Elvis Jamee Brown. Jackie vs the kitchen sink. ENOUGH ALREADY!!!!!!!!🚲 They were all great. And all played their part in making our lives richer and more exciting.
It's great to see any footage of Jackie, but you don't really get a sense of how explosive a performer he was. His routines were so sexually charged that he was forced to tone them down for TV appearances.
Johnny I really believe that cause you can see it in this video Its's like Jackie saying to himself : I am about to bust this thang wide - open & do what the Funkedelics & Parliaments. said I'm ( he's Jackie about to ) Tear The Roof Off This Sucker & Turn It Out !!! he knew that he couldn't get down with the *Real Nitty Gritty * 😉 because some of them would said Jackie was like James Brown said He's 3 × 7 & then some more 😎 & said his performance was a double. X X rated they probably would had asked Jackie to leave the stage 😉🎶 & 🎶 March 14, 2019
@PutOnASweater I forgot to mention - I did get to meet him once. I was a member of the Harlem YMCA and one day we had a street cleanup campaign. He showed up to meet the crowd but I was a kid and too shy to tell him how much he meant to me, something which I still regret.
Lamed Vav you sure are right about that comment Mr. 🎇Excitement himself & he's doing a for real BABY WORKOUT with this performance ☺💗🎵💚 February 14 , 2019
In The UK he is still revered. In the 1990's someone did a Video with a Company similar to Claymation to Reet Petite (Co Written by Berry Gordy) the future President of Motown. Then I Get The Sweetest Feeling was also a tribute Video and last year The UK Soap Opera Eastenders played his Music. But the best example was when Oti Mabuse and Cheryl Ann Tweedy who were judges on a UK Show called The Greatest Dancer saw a Couple Dance to "Reet Petite" and they joined them on stage. Ola Myhre Elvis thought the world of Jackie Wilson. In fact Jackie visited him when he did Return To Sender and Elvis even emulated his moves.
Jackie did not visit Elvis "when he did Return To Sender". That song was from the movie "Girls, Girls, Girls" which came out in 1962. They did hot meet until 1966 in Los Angeles when Elvis came down to see Jackie perform at "The Trip".
@offthehook2 everything ok except for last sentence. Ritchie Valens, Ricky Nelson and Frankie Lymon was also teenagers when they started their careers and they were also singing about love and... I belive them :)
To Happy: Michael's fans r fanatics who will never give credit to some of MJ's inspiration! Jacky Wilson was so superior to MJ in ea. way! Especially that fabulous voice! He was taken from us too soon and his talent was under-recognized. He was capable of doing great things, he would have loved doing broadway and movies. I give credit to kids like Ne-yo & Usher who are not afraid to handle different material. MJ is same-old, same-old.
Wow you really are dissing Michael! Michael always have given credit to Jackie Wilson and James Brown don't worry about some of his fanatic fans. Don't take away from Michael trying to build Jackie back up. Jackie was great and Michael is great!
Jackie was not present with the crowd of white dancers, they are just looking at a wall and were told to smile and keep dancing! They did this because they didn't like to see white women swoon over these black artist or get excited over them. True story, look it up before you say I am playing a race card! This is only the card they were dealt back then and I am just telling how it went down for this movie. Jackie Wilson was in a few other shows in which he was told to show up and pretend to be singing to a crowd of people. Sometimes it was lip sync and sometimes he sang live with a band or orchestra, but just he and the musicians, no audience! Of course on Shingdig, if that's how it's spelled, he sang in front of a real audience.
+Divine Design You are so wrong...it had nothing to do with 'white women swooning over a black artist"... Jackie did his part in a studio in NY and it was edited into the film. Your comments just perpetuates racial bigotry where there is none. ALL music is edited into films, it cannot be recorded live.
No, YOU are wrong, and also afraid to deal with how RACIST American white people were and still are, especially about black men. Insecurity is in the hearts of most white men, and why wouldn't they have not wanted their little 'virgin' white girls to not get all heated and MOIST over brothers performing and looking the way Jackie Wilson did?? You are part of the race problem, because you would rather stick your head in the sand and accuse someone like divine design of 'perpetuating racial bigotry'?? Give me a break, it's YOU who are doing that!!
David Design thank you Sir. Chuck Berry, James Brown and several other talented black artists of that era spoke VERY openly of this issue.

The biggest fear especially for White males in the South was to see Beautiful Caucasian women openly express their desire for a man of color especially an entertainer. The reasons? Pick your choice: a) insecurity b) fear of feeling inferior in that area c) fear of integration or d) all of the above. Not all White men had this issue. But a very significant number from certain demographics made it a sworn duty by whatever means necessary to ensure that blonde, brunette, ravens white women did not interact with black men or any man of color. It was an ugly period in the Nations relatively short history but you can't run away from it just because one may feel uncomfortable with himself at what was allowed to thrive at one point in time.

you are correct...Elvis jacked his whole style...Elvis was even quoted as saying Jackie Wilson was among his influences.

Yeah, I know. Whenever I dance it's generally a mixture of MJ, JB, and Jackie.

i came to see jackie's vid cuzi heard mj was highly influenced by him. and hell yeah it's true. he is amazing
Dont know what you got to him, but I like his voice:D
from the film go johnny go,just released on dvd in the uk
Una de sus muchas obras maestras.
do to this during the peak of the segregation years... its so impressive, wonderful voice and truly inspiring! RIP JACKIE!!
@PutOnASweater I forgot to mention - I did get to meet him once. I was a member of the Harlem YMCA and one day we had a street cleanup campaign. He showed up to meet the crowd but I was a kid and too shy to tell him how much he meant to me, something which I still regret.
I bet not one of those party guests would have Mr. Wilson over for dinner!
@PutOnASweater Wow you're lucky. I only got to see him that one time but it's stamped in my memory like a brand.
Cool vid!!!! Thanks.
Lamed Vav you sure are right about that comment Mr. 🎇Excitement himself & he's doing a for real BABY WORKOUT with this performance ☺💗🎵💚 February 14 , 2019
A whole bunch of entertainers copied off Jackie... including James B... he really was the man
So true LadyTai7. Jackie is the greatest. Even James Brown wouldn't take him on.
In The UK he is still revered. In the 1990's someone did a Video with a Company similar to Claymation to Reet Petite (Co Written by Berry Gordy) the future President of Motown.

Isee where MJ gets his MOVES, thanks for the post.
1958 was a Very good year.
jackie was bad ass. amazing songs, I think his hair is made of licorice though
Temuco chile jackie wilson simplemente genial
This clip is from the movie "Go Johnny Go".
Blacks couldn't vote untill 1964 . we as americans have come a ways , with a ways to go . these were great entertainers .
Saw him at the "Uptown" here in Philly in the early sixties.
@bkatayab ...thanks for your acknowledgement from a Black woman....
That's the truth!

Damn!!!!
@dirtysteve69er There will never be another Jackie Wilson
Those shots are called outtakes....those people were not even there. The shots were edited in later to make it look like there was an audience.
Did I just see the precursor to Micheal Jackson's Moonwalk or what?! U da man, Jackie!
Sensacional
actually, the moonwalk is credited to Bill Bailey...Pearl's brother.....
To Happy: Michael's fans r fanatics who will never give credit to some of MJ's inspiration! Jacky Wilson was so superior to MJ in ea. way! Especially that fabulous voice! He was taken from us too soon and his talent was under-recognized. He was capable of doing great things, he would have loved doing broadway and movies.
I give credit to kids like Ne-yo & Usher who are not afraid to handle different material. MJ is same-old, same-old.
Thats a negative, but Jackie is the man!! the Moonwalk was here before michael and Jackie! There a vid on here showing the origin of it.
Michael, Elvis, James Brown and Frankie Lymon were all influenced by Jackie Wilson whose movie is long overdue.
@PutOnASweater More than 100 times! That must be some kind of record.
I dont know the history....but I'm willing to bet that Elvis mimicked Jackie Wilson to-a-tee!! I'm sure he watched him day & night.....he had to.

Hey, the year i was born...

Wow you really are dissing Michael! Michael always have given credit to Jackie Wilson and James Brown don't worry about some of his fanatic fans. Don't take away from Michael trying to build Jackie back up.
Jackie was great and Michael is great!
Jackie was not present with the crowd of white dancers, they are just looking at a wall and were told to smile and keep dancing! They did this because they didn't like to see white women swoon over these black artist or get excited over them.
True story, look it up before you say I am playing a race card! This is only the card they were dealt back then and I am just telling how it went down for this movie. Jackie Wilson was in a few other shows in which he was told to show up and pretend to be singing to a crowd of people.
Sometimes it was lip sync and sometimes he sang live with a band or orchestra, but just he and the musicians, no audience!
Of course on Shingdig, if that's how it's spelled, he sang in front of a real audience.
