The Jacksons

ONE OF the more dramatic announcements of 1975 came when The Jackson Five made it known that they had concluded a new recording pact with Epic Records for "an undisclosed sum" after many years of success with Motown Records, the company that put the group on the map and with whom they enjoyed a string of big hits ('I Want You Back', 'ABC', 'I'll Be There' on and on) and became established as a musical institution.
