@flix2view If they did that...it possibly could have overshadowed Ritchie's performance of "La Bamba." As it was, they had trouble trying to outdo THIS performance.
This man should have won an Oscar. He protrayed Jackie better than Jackie. lol Serious as a heart attack. This man performed his ass off. Great voice, great look, great performance. 100 thumbs up
ha ha ha ha ha ha!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!....u got 2 b kidding ryte?.......no way in heaven that this version....or any version can stand up 2 the 6 million seller at that time dont know where the sells are at now....NO FUNKIN COMPARENCE...AT ALL...JACKIE...UNDISPUTID!!!!!!!!
It's a sad thing to know that the real Jackie Wilson had suffered a heart attack while he was in the middle of singing this song. Just when he was singing the part "my heart's so heavy i can feel the pain", it was said that he grabbed his chest and collapsed.
I appreciate his effort but anyone who thinks this is as good as Jackie is hopelessly out of touch. The dancing is (sorry to say) very sloppy...as Jackie was extremely smooth. The singing is good perhaps a little too high as Jackie always had depth to his voice no matter how high the key was.
Dame this man performance is really really good, i love this video, i just keep replaying it. He has some bad ass moves. what ever happen to these kind of old school music?
OMFG... Thank you so much for this GEM from the La Bamba DVD... Too bad we can't see the other video that was also on the DVD.. NO thanks to the WMG motherfuckers.. I hold them responsible for KILLING ROCK AND ROLL... I love this video and the other too...
Very true... But Howard Huntsberry helped me to discover and appreciate this generation of music , including and particularly Jackie Wilson (and Berry, Valens, Holly, Cochran, etc:) Long live this music!

This was a great movie, and Mr. Huntsberry´s performance is one of the best parts of it.

Wilson's version is more romantic or heart felt, this version is more dancing

@angelprrre Same here, for years. Great great version. The original is the original, but this is just as good, if not better, in my opinion!

I much prefer this version. It has updated instrumentation. They speeded up the tempo, and added more percussion. Howard's vocal range is just fine.

Had this guy been born when Jackie Wilson was around then he would have been the star ahead of Jackie. An unbelievable performer.
