jackie wilson and michael jackson had one thing in common:

they made whoever danced near them look like a fool

Black Elvis? Should be White Jackie Wilson as Jackie Wilson much more naturally talented entertainer than Elvis Presley.

@usernametaken56 after being dead all these years if Jackie suddenly burst upon the music world today everyone would be saying wtf how did you get here....lol just kidding but you are so right

FYI: Elvis *loved* Jackie Wilson, and modeled his stage act after Jackie. Check out Elvis singing "Return To Sender" WITH Jackie Wilson in the audience!

I saw Jackie Wilson in my youth, they called him Mr. Excitement. In my life I have never seen a recording artist with so much energy and enthusiasm. Never been anyone like him.

MJ often said Jackie was a major inspiration. I see it in MJ's work.

@usernametaken56 I agree.

1:26-27 the leg split Jackie did is STILL alive today...I'm a dancer, and we do it in everything from the Cat Daddy dance to the Dougie...folk just don't know the history of the moves and the transference of dance throughout time. As a lover of dance and music history, I just love seeing these older reels and giving credit where it most certainly is DUE. Thanks Jackie and all the legends who inspired him, because in essence, through him you inspire me.

@psingone THANK YOU.The sublety in the language we use is key. Even though both men were friends in their lifetimes, in my opinion, too much attention has always went to Elvis and not enough towards the African Americans who deeply inspired Elvis. Jackie Wilson is a premier performer who did such...
