ULTIMATE CHRISTMAS COLLECTION is a reissue of THE JACKSON 5 CHRISTMAS ALBUM released in 1970 on Motown, with ten bonus tracks. This is a pleasing combination of holiday classics, with not so classic, but still enjoyable, original tunes. Collectors will be interested in hearing the bonus cuts exclusive to this compilation, such as the spoken seasons greetings from Michael, Jermaine, Tito, and Jackie, originally issued on a 1973 promotional single; "Little Christmas Tree," from A MOTOWN CHRISTMAS, also from 1973; and remixed and a cappella versions of "Up on the House Top," "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer," "Someday at Christmas," "Give Love on Christmas Day," and "J5 Christmas Medley."

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.
