Beginning Years 1967-68

Beginning Years 1967-68

This recording features a very young (pre-Motown) Michael Jackson with his brothers performing a dozen classic Soul/R&B tunes with a very recognizable hint of their future success. Drummer Johnny Jackson was not a blood relative of the Jackson 5 but often referred to as their 'cousin' who was present for their earliest Steeltown recordings in Gary, Indiana. When the Jackson family moved to Los Angeles, he went with them, was signed along with them to Motown and was on their earliest recordings for that label. In 1974, he was eased out of the picture and returned to Gary. Later he migrated to Chicago where he ultimately struggled. He was last seen in a Chicago hospital by Davin Seay, a Swamp Dogg associate and biographer, attempting to co-write his memoirs. These recordings, from 1967 and 1968, feature the Jackson Family with Johnny and a 9-year old Michael at the beginning of his career.
