It was known that Elvis wanted to do Jackie Wilson's "Night" because it sounded like an opera. Jackie was no doubt one of the all time greats and very underrated.
BIG RESPECT TO JACKIE WILSON... But Elvis Presley never took nobody's style coz he had his own. Infact, Elvis was more versatile than any other artist. Fact. Here's Just a FEW of his many styles: Love Me Tender, Teddy Bear, Trouble, Pocket Full Of Rainbows, Crying in the chapel.

@50srocknrollfan18 He was. Clearly took Jackie's style and tried to call him the black Elvis. Happened all the time back then.
