- NOTES
Digitally remastered deluxe 2CD anthology of the group of
brothers who landed a recording contract with Motown
Records and promptly stormed to the top of the pop charts
around the world in the late 1960's. Fronted by second
youngest brother Michael, his charisma and precociousness
were magnetic, revealing a talent that once in the
spotlight would never leave. The tracklist includes many
of their biggest hits like "I Want You Back", "ABC",
"Mama's Pearl", "I'll Be There", "Never Can Say Goodbye"
and many more, including a cover of Jackson Browne's
"Doctor My Eyes". The set comes in a hardback book cover
and includes a 24 page booklet with photos and extensive
sleeve notes.

About the Jackson 5:
The Jackson 5 were one of the biggest phenomenons in pop
music during the early '70s, and the last great group to
come out of the Motown hitmaking machine before Marvin
Gaye and Stevie Wonder shifted the label's focus to more
individual visions. The Jackson 5's infectious brand of
funky pop-soul was a definite departure from the typically
smooth, elegant Motown sound, as befitting the group's
youth and the dawn of a new decade. That youth, coupled
with the merchandising juggernaut that sprang up behind
them, inevitably got them tagged a bubblegum group. But
they were far more talented musically than that label
would suggest, especially lead singer Michael, and their
material, while sunny and upbeat, didn't pander to its
audience. Solo careers and overexposure gradually weakened
the Jackson 5, but their best music still holds up
surprisingly well as some of the most vibrant mainstream
pop/R&B of its era.
Originally, the Jackson 5 were composed of brothers Jackie
(born Sigmund Jackson, May 4, 1951), Tito (guitar, born
Toriano Jackson, October 15, 1953), Jermaine (bass, lead
vocals, born December 11, 1954), Marlon (born March 12,
1957), and Michael (lead vocals, born August 29, 1958). By
all accounts, the Jackson family's upbringing in Gary, IN,
was strict; their mother Katherine was a devout Jehovah's
Witness, and their father Joe was a stern, temperamental
disciplinarian. Allowed few outside interests, the boys
gravitated to music, which was in their blood -- prior to
his job as a crane operator for a steel company, Joe had
played guitar in an R&B group called the Falcons (not the
same group that launched Wilson Pickett's career). One
night, Joe discovered that Jackie, Tito, and Jermaine had
been playing his treasured old guitar without permission;
though initially furious, he quickly discovered that his
sons had genuine talent, and began to conceive of a family
singing group that might eventually get them out of their
tough working-class life in Gary. The eldest three sons
began performing around the area together in 1962, teamed
with two cousins (Johnny Jackson and Ronnie Rancifer), who
were replaced by Marlon and five-year-old Michael.
Supervised by Joe, who became their manager and began
working only part-time, the group practiced and rehearsed
often, and improved as dancers, singers, and
instrumentalists at a rapid rate. In particular, Michael
proved himself a dynamic performer, soon replacing
Jermaine as the featured lead vocalist, and establishing
himself as a nimble dancer able to mimic talents like
James Brown. At first, the group was known as Ripples &
Waves Plus Michael, then the Jackson Brothers, and finally
the Jackson 5.
In 1966, the Jackson 5 won an important local talent
competition with a Michael-led rendition of the
Temptations' "My Girl." Their father, who had been
chauffeuring them to out-of-state performances, also
booked their first paid professional gigs that year. In
1967, the group won an amateur talent competition at
Harlem's legendary Apollo Theater, where they earned an
influential fan in Gladys Knight (probably the first
person to recommend the group to Motown). At the end of
the year, the Jackson 5 made their first studio recordings
for the small Gary-based Steeltown label, and their single
"Big Boy" became something of a local hit. Championed
again to Motown by Bobby Taylor, a member of the
Vancouvers who'd seen the group in Chicago, and Diana
Ross, the Jackson 5 finally got a chance to audition for
the label in the summer of 1968. Desperately needing new
blood, an impressed Berry Gordy signed the group and flew
them out to his new headquarters in Los Angeles, where he
and his assistants groomed them to be the label's next
breakout stars. Having lost his famed
Holland-Dozier-Holland songwriting team, Gordy formed a
new partnership with Freddie Perren, Fonce Mizell, and
Deke Richards dubbed the Corporation, which set about
crafting material for the group.
In August 1969, shortly before Michael turned 11, the
Jackson 5 opened for Diana Ross at the L.A. Forum, and in
December, they issued their debut album, Diana Ross
Presents the Jackson 5. On October 7, 1969, the Jackson 5
released their first single, "I Want You Back," a
Corporation composition that had originally been intended
for Gladys Knight. It was an instant smash, hitting number
one on both the pop and R&B charts. So did their next two
singles, "ABC" and "The Love You Save" (both from their
second album, ABC), which solidified the group's so-called
bubblegum-soul sound and certified them as pop sensations.
Third Album was released before year's end, spawning the
hit ballad "I'll Be There," which not only proved that the
group (and lead singer Michael) were more mature and
versatile than their bright, bouncy initial singles let
on, but also made them the first group in pop history to
have their first four singles hit number one. It also
became the best-selling single in Motown history, spending
a stellar five weeks at number one. And it had still been
less than a year since the group's national debut.
A virtual Jackson 5 cottage industry sprang up in the wake
of their success, producing everything from dolls to a
cartoon show on -- what else? -- the ABC network (during
the summer of 1971). Younger and younger listeners were
brought into the fold, adding to an already broad appeal
that transcended color lines, and the record label that
once billed itself as "the Sound of Young America" could
once again lay legitimate claim to the title. Meanwhile,
following their four straight number ones, the Jackson 5
opened 1971 with a pair of number two hits, "Mama's Pearl"
and the ballad "Never Can Say Goodbye"; "Maybe Tomorrow"
was their first single not to make the pop Top Ten, though
it still reached the R&B Top Five. That year, Motown
executives began grooming Michael and Jermaine for solo
careers that would run concurrently with the Jackson 5.
Michael was the first to debut on his own (toward the end
of 1971), and was an instant success; his first two
singles, "Got to Be There" and "Rockin' Robin," both made
the Top Five, and later in 1972 he scored his first pop
number one with "Ben." Jermaine debuted at the end of
1972, and his first single, "Daddy's Home," reached the
Top Ten, though the follow-ups didn't sustain the momentum
as well as Michael.
In the meantime, the fantastically hyped Jackson 5 craze
was beginning to cool down. Their prolific LP release
schedule slowed a bit, and while their singles continued
to perform reliably well on the R&B charts, they were no
longer a sure-fire bet for the pop Top Ten. After a
relatively lengthy drought, the Jackson 5 scored what
would be their last major smash for Motown, the 1974
number two hit "Dancing Machine," a nod to the emerging
sound of disco (it also topped the R&B charts). The
group's frustrations with Motown had been building -- not
only did the label seem less interested in their career,
but they still refused to allow the Jacksons to write or
choose their own material, or play their own instruments
on their records. Finally, in early 1976, they left Motown
to sign with Epic. When the legal battles finally ended,
Motown won a breach-of-contract settlement and retained
rights to the Jackson 5 name, forcing the group to become
the Jacksons. They also lost Jermaine, whose marriage to
Berry Gordy's daughter Hazel made it extremely impractical
for him to join his brothers. He was replaced by younger
brother Randy (born Steven Randall Jackson, October 29,
1961), who had been appearing (unofficially) with the
group as a percussionist for some time.
The Jacksons' first few records on Epic were somewhat
erratic affairs produced by Philly soul legends Gamble &
Huff. However, the group truly assumed control over their
music and hit full stride on 1978's Destiny, which most
regard as the strongest studio LP the Jacksons recorded
together in any incarnation. Destiny was self-produced and
largely self-written, and its success helped encourage
Michael to return to solo work. 1979's brilliant Off the
Wall made him a star in his own right, signifying his
arrival as a mature adult artist, but he remained with his
brothers for the time being, helping them record a
Grammy-nominated follow-up to Destiny in 1980's Triumph.
The staggering success of Michael's next solo album,
Thriller, signaled the beginning of the end for the
Jacksons, but not quite yet; Jermaine rejoined the group
for 1984's Victory, the only album to feature all six
brothers. The single "State of Shock," which featured
guest vocalist Mick Jagger, hit number three that year,
and the group's ensuing tour was a blockbuster success,
despite expensive (for the time) ticket prices. Michael
and Marlon both left the Jacksons, the latter trying out
an unsuccessful solo career; Randy, Tito, and Jackie
appeared as the Jacksons on the soundtrack of Burglar, and
subsequently became highly regarded session musicians. The
Jacksons reconvened in 1989 for the album 2300 Jackson
Street, which featured every Jackson sibling save LaToya
on the title cut. However, it wasn't as successful as
hoped, and to date there have been no further reunions on
record. In 1997, the Jackson 5 were inducted into the Rock
& Roll Hall of Fame.
