Lost & Sound 
Man this brings back memories. I remember being 11 yrs old and reading this “LIFE” Magazine article. I loved the Jackson 5. They represented me… a young black boy in the music business.
I ended up becoming a platinum record producer ( ICE CUBE) by 1992 and a smooth Jazz guitarist by 2010 ( http://www.mychalsimonz.com) How I thank the Motown, Berry Gordy and The Jackson 5 for being my inspiration to be in this business. R.I.P. MJ
awwwww so cute too too too cute
This family has been an inspiration in my life. They help me to see that I could be more than an poor African American growing up in the 60’s and 70″s. I dreamed of making my parent rich and because of them I strived hard in life to to achieve the goals I set for my self in life. No, I am not rich, but I made enough to lavish my mother before she died.
