The Greatest-On His Worst Day.......2005-11-30
I was conditioned to believe that nobody can beat Jackie Wilson
as a singer/entertainer by an uncle who knew Jackie's manager and
once sort of "acted" as a bodyguard for the great singer at New York's Apollo Theatre;apparently it was impossible to keep females away from the stage.Like my uncle,I just don't think anyone does it better. And for all the "Irishmen" out there,check out Jackie's version of 'Danny Boy' on this album.
Jackie Wilson At His Best.......2005-11-30
Jackie Wilson was the consummate artist: a voice that was as smooth as honey on moon beams, gravity-defying dance steps and great looks. He was Elvis before there was an Elvis. As a youngster, I saw many of his incredible performances at the Apollo--shows that represent some of the best memories of my life. Unfortunately, this is Jackie's only live album. For those not fortunate to have witnessed his live performance, I simply say it was unlike any other. This album, my all-time favorite, represents a nice sample of the broad spectrum of musical genres he mastered. No one, including Elvis, could touch him. When you saw Jackie, or heard his voice, you had to believe in God--for talent like his could come from no other source.
The Real Deal!!!.......2004-08-03
This record is one of the greatest live records ever made by an R&B Artist. It is well recorded and it ranks right up there with James Brown at the Apollo and BB King at the Regal. The listener will get an authentic taste of the greatest soul performer that ever lived. I used to go to the Regal Theater often in my younger days and I caught many a show by this man. The only person who ever came near Jackie in performance (voice and dance steps)is Michael Jackson. Jackie needed no pyrotechnics, dancing girls or backup singers, he was the whole package by himself. Check out St. James Infirmary, That's Why I Love You So and my favorite song on this record, This Is My Beloved and you will know who the real king of soul was. I have a lot of records but this one is special. So was Jackie Wilson.
