Absolutely, No Way!
. This album set is absolutely amazing however for 150 bucks, there's no flippin' way!! This is one album I will gladly steal via BitTorrent.


Quench my desire.
Jackie possessed an incredible voice and could sing just about any type of music. This is a three disc box set of soul singer Jackie Wilson. In fact, several of his biggest hits were based on classical or operatic melodies. But he was also great at singing in a more "soulful" style. Unfortunately, Jackie recorded quite a few songs that weren't very good, to be perfectly frank. This collection generally presents the "best" material he recorded, but there are still a few mediocre songs here. But it's still an excellent overview of his career.


THE ULTIMATE MALE SINGER OF THE CENTURY~BRAVO JACKIE!!!
Jackie Wilson just may have been the greatest singer and performer over the past fifty years. . Elvis was crazy about him and he inspired many greats such as Michael Jackson and Al Green but nobody ever quite had the tremendous power and the glorious tones that made up the magnificent voice of Jackie Wilson!!! Grab this priceless gem of a box set while it is around because greatness like this will never happen again and this is the Ultimate Jackie collection to have and each disc is a magical musical listening experience that has to be heard to be believed. Early hits produced and written by Barry Gordy were the building blocks of Motown but "Lonely Teardrops" clearly shows that as many greats as Motown produced none came close to Jackie and it is sad that Jackie was never signed to Motown because in a way he started it!!! Thankfully after Gordy, great records and many classic recordings such as "A Woman, A Lover, A Friend", "Doggin' Around", "Night", "(You Were Made For) All My Love", "Baby Workout", "No Pity (In The Naked City)", "Whispers (Gittin' Louder)", "Your Love Keeps Lifting Me Higher", "I Get The Sweetest Feeling", "Just Call My Name", and others continued and it is a long and totally awesome list filled with lots of variety. . . listen to the definitive version of "For Once In My Life" then be blown away by the beauty of "Danny Boy" then experience the brilliant pathos of "Even When You Cry with Count Basie and know true musical once-in-a-lifetime genius. To the end Jackie Wilson made classics that are timeless in their appeal for those who love and appreciate the finest in vocal artists. . . a true classic legend and this is the collection of his classics to savor and enjoy for years to come. . . Bravo Jackie and we love and miss you!!! .


Jackie Wilson Was One Of A Kind
His voice was truly a gift from God. Jackie Wilson was one of the most amazing vocalists I have ever heard. I only gave these recordings 3 stars because I don't like most of the 3rd cd as much as the 1rst two cds. The third cd contains his later material. I like his earlier work better. Although the 3rd cd does contain the best version of "Danny Boy" I have ever heard. Jackie could do almost anything with his voice. He occasionally sounded like Elvis, as he does on the song "Reet Petite". At other times he sounds like an opera singer, like on the songs "Night" and "My Empty Arms". This boxed set also contains my favorite version of the standard "Stormy Weather". There was simply no one like him. If I had lived in the 1950s, this is the one performer I would loved to have seen live. If I were rating this boxed set on vocals alone I would give it 5 stars. I would always give Jackie 5 stars for vocals. Young people who think that stars of today such as Britney Spears, Shania Twain, Janet Jackson, ect. can sing should listen to this boxed set. This was a real singer with true talent. This set is worth getting for the vocals alone. Especially if you have never heard these vocals before.
