Excellent Collection Definitely a must-have. An must-have for music lovers, his vocal abilities and dancing skills have been imitated by so many.
Still have not received item from Amazon
I can not review an item I never got in the mail, but my account was debited. I called Amazon and I still have not received my item.
Sincerely,
Frustrated.
Good old rock & roll
I like it overall. I love some of the old songs, others are not as good.
The Very Best of Jackie Wilson by the very best, Jackie Wilson
To rate Jackie Wilson as less than one of the very best of the early R&B vocalists is to do a terrible disservice to this genre of music. This disc is a phenomenal compilation of one very best of early R & B's pioneers. This disc shows the amazing talent and vocal range of Jackie Wilson, a superstar who could have sung any genre of music of his choosing. His range is wonderfully displayed in Lonely Teardrops and To Be Loved. Look closely at the credits and you find that five of the tunes on this disc were penned by none other than Barry Gordy,Jr. in his pre-motown era. The songs are all beautifully arranged and the orchestration is superb. This is the CD for someone wishing to add to his collection of the early years of R & B. Five Stars!

the very best
Excitement, what a great voice! Nobody could sing a ballad like that man! This is a great compilation of his greatest songs, if you enjoy great vocals and true soul, you need to add this one to your collection. Jackie Wilson, Mr. Sadly, Jackie was taken away from us way too early, but his music lives on!.
