Jackie Wilson : So Much Plus Jackie Sings the Blues CD Bonus Tracks Album

2 LPs ON 1 CD + 6 BONUS TRACKSJackie Wilson was an electrifying showman and one of the best R&B singers and performers of all time. His athletic stage moves influenced everyone from Elvis Presley to James Brown, and his astounding vocal range included high-pitched whooping to operatic crooning, and everything in between. Known as “Mr. Excitement”, Jackie Wilson’s unique singing style combined a passionate delivery with infectious energy. He was a very important influence on the soul era that followed his prominence in the music business. He was also a significant contributor in building early rock & roll into the commercial success that it became.This quintessential release compiles two of Wilson’s complete LPs for the Brunswick label: So Much (1959) and Jackie Sings The Blues (1960). They each contain well-known numbers from the beginning of his career, such as “Talk That Talk”, “So Much” and “I’ll Be Satisfied”, among others.Long unavailable, both sensational albums have been packaged together in this special collector’s edition, which also includes 6 bonus tracks from the same period. There’s no better proof of Jackie Wilson’s talents than these joyous, consistent, stylish and exuberant remastered recordings.PERSONNEL:JACKIE WILSON, lead vocals on all tracks, plus:The Dick Jacobs Orchestra and Chorus, featuring:Jerome Richardson (saxophone)Al Caiola (guitar)Dick Hyman (organ)Don Lamond (drums), among others.Recorded in New York City, between 1958 and 1960 (except #28,probably recorded in 1961).Original recordings produced and arranged by Dick Jacobs.INCLUDES 16-PAGE BOOKLETTRACKS:SO MUCH1.
