Song of the Day: Jackie Wilson, “Higher & Higher”

Song of the Day 1 Minute

Singer Jackie Wilson would be 87 today (he died in 1984). He had a four-octave vocal range and was one of the more dynamic performers of his day. "Higher & Higher" was released in 1967 and reached #1 on the Soul chart and #6 on the Hot 100.
