Description

MICHAEL JACKSON...... THIS IS THE VERY 1ST ALBUM EVER RELEASED OF MICHAEL JACKSON /JACKSON 5.. PRESENTED TO THE PUBLIC BY DIANA ROSS THIS IS A VERY RARE ALBUM. 1969 ITS 31 YEARS OLD AND IN GOOD CONDITION .

Diana Ross Presents the Jackson 5 is the debut album from Gary, Indiana-based soul family band The Jackson 5, released on the Motown label in December 1969. The Jackson 5's lead singer, a boy named Michael (who later became an universally-recognized pop star on his own and "The King of Pop") , and his older brothers Jackie, Jermaine, Tito, and Marlon, became pop successes within months of this album's release. Diana Ross Presents the Jackson 5's only single, "I Want You Back", became a number-one hit on the Billboard Hot 100 within weeks of the album's release and eventually sold five million copies worldwide.[1]

The album title suggested that Motown star Diana Ross had discovered the group, as do the Ross-penned liner notes on the back cover. Ross' alleged discovering of the Jackson 5 was in fact part of Motown's marketing and promotions plan for the Jackson 5; Motown artists Bobby Taylor and Gladys Knight were the ones who had actually discovered the Jacksons. Ross did, however, introduce the group to the public both in concert and on television.
