Monday morning, the incredible Jackie Wilson, Mr. Excitement, at his height, leads you in your morning exercise routine.

The clip is from the “Shindig” television show, back before they allowed too many black dancers on TV. But Jackie just makes the onstage whitebread crew look foolish. He influenced Elvis and Michael Jackson and through them, just about everyone else in pop music.
