Love Songs

Performer: The Jackson 5
Producer: Harry Weinger (Compilation)
Distributor: Universal Distribution

Notes: Audio Remasterer: Kevin Reeves. Even though their lead singer Michael was a pre-pubescent tyke at the height of the band's popularity, the Jackson 5 had a number of hits with their stirringly passionate ballads and love songs. Motown's 2009 LOVE SONGS series, released to coincide with Valentine's Day, compiles the best and best-known romantic material from the label's heavy hitters, and the Jackson 5 disc is no exception. "I'll Be There," "Can You Remember," and "Never Can Say Goodbye" are here, along with nine others. For anyone looking to have the Jackson 5's love songs in one place, this compilation is a good bet.

Gary, Indiana brothers Tito, Jermaine, Randy, Michael, and Marlon Jackson were the Jackson 5 (later known simply as the Jacksons). One of the most influential and successful vocal groups of all time, they became worldwide superstars before they hit their teens. The Jackson 5's music was a highly accessible mix of R&B and straight pop with enormous crossover appeal. The group's focus was on the prodigious talents of its lead singer, Michael, who even at nine years old sang with the authentic soul feel of a grown man. Michael's subsequent solo career made him one of the biggest-selling artists in history, but the work of the Jackson 5 remains a vital part of pop and R&B history.
