Wilson, Jackie
He's So Fine
Detroit native Jackie Wilson, AKA "Mr. Excitement", left jump blues and R&B group The Dominoes in 1957 to pursue a solo
career. The following year he released this, his debut LP, a rollicking collection of orchestrated pop R&B of the
highest caliber. Including the hit "Reet Petite", half the songs on this LP were written by Berry Gordy, Jr. nearly 2
years before he founded Motown, which was partially funded by songwriting royalties Gordy earned writing hits for
Wilson. A fine debut from one of the great soul and R&B singers of the late 50s/early 60s, a man who counted among his
fans and followers no less than James Brown, Michael Jackson, and the king himself, Elvis Presley.
