Jackson 5 #1'S

Arrangers: Stevie Wonder; Berry Gordy, Jr.; Freddie Perren; Deke Richards; Fonce Mizell.
This is the same set and sequence as Hip-O's 2004 compilation of the Jacksons called The Jacksons Story but with different cover art. Spanning the years 1969 to 1983, it includes material from both the group's Motown and Epic years, a definite plus, and adds solo tracks by Jermaine Jackson (who remained at Motown when the rest of the Jacksons moved on to Epic), and Michael Jackson, most notably his massive solo hit from 1983, "Billie Jean," a song that all but sealed his fate as the biggest pop star in the known universe. ~ Steve Leggett
