Essential Jacksons
(2004)

by
The Jacksons
The first thing to realize about Epic/Legacy's The Essential Jacksons is that it's a collection of the Jacksons , not the Jackson 5. Which means that none of the group's hits for Motown in the early '70s are here -- it's everything that came afterward, when the group signed to Epic/Philadelphia International (soon to be just Epic) and changed its ...

The Jacksons Live
(1981)

by
The Jacksons
It's easy to forget, in the wake of a decade of bizarre behavior, rumors, and innuendo surrounding Michael Jackson that the Jacksons were once known solely for being a major music franchise. This live album, which was pretty obscure in its original double-LP vinyl version, is a reminder of how great an act they were, and captures what was just ...

2300 Jackson Street
(1989)

by
The Jacksons
This was the final gathering of the entire Jackson family, and it turned out to have both historical significance and some musical value. The team of L.A. and Babyface, then emerging as major producers, spearheaded the track "Nothin' Compares to U," and the title track was a nice autobiographical/family outing song.

The Jacksons
After the commercial reprieve of the innovative "Dancing Machine" single (and album of the same name), the Jackson 5's successful five-year relationship with Motown and Berry Gordy ended. Their last Motown effort, Moving Violation, had barely made a dent. After an acrimonious split, brother Jermaine Jackson stayed at Motown, and Gordy fought and ...

Destiny
(1978)
more music like this
by
The Jacksons
The Jacksons are finally turned loose to write and produce themselves, and the result is their best (non-hits collection) ever. The dance tracks still sound fresh; "Blame It on the Boogie," "Shake Your Body (Down to the Ground)"; and the ballads are heartfelt and smooth. This album is a dry run for Michael Jackson's adult solo career. William ...

Triumph
(1980)

by
The Jacksons
This album's predecessor Destiny was a high-selling album that featured the guys maturing and delving into self-production. In 1980, Michael Jackson's classic Off the Wall was still selling. This album has the group fleshing out their sound and songwriting abilities even more. The anthemic "Can't You Feel It" has enough hubris and undeniable craft ...

The Jacksons
The Jacksons' move to Epic regenerated their enthusiasm and spirit for several years. The Gamble/Huff team brought them fresh material and new production ideas, as well as better tracks and arrangements than they'd gotten in quite a while on Motown. This album got them R&B and pop hits and kept the family act in the spotlight for a little while ...

An intriguing double-disc collection packaged by Sony Australia, Real Disco certainly doesn't include much in the way of commercial hits -- only two or three come close -- but it does balance middling obscurities with a few nice tracks stretching the form. The compilers looked back to 1974's "Lady Marmalade" (Labelle) and ahead to the mid-'80s ( ...
