The Jacksons

The Jackson 5 were later known as The Jacksons when brothers Michael, Marlon, Tito, Jackie and Randy signed to CBS Records (as "The Jacksons") from 1975 and Jermaine stayed at Motown. The Jacksons were one of the most popular groups of the era and they continued their success into the 1980s with hits such as "Shake Your Body", "Can You Feel It" and "State of Shock", and a highly successful 1984 Victory Tour before disbanding in 1990 after recording the album 2300 Jackson Street.

Group composition
The Jacksons (1976-1984): Jackie, Tito, Marlon, Michael, Randy
The Jacksons (1989-1990): Jackie, Tito, Jermaine, Randy
The Jacksons (2009-present): Jackie, Tito, Jermaine, Marlon

Nowadays, many hits of the Jackson 5 and Jacksons, such as "Can You Feel It" and  "I Want You Back" and have been covered or samples have been used in modern hits and dance tracks. All Jackson brothers have recorded one or more solo albums and they reunited on stage in 2001, for two shows that were dedicated to Michael's 35th anniverary celebration in Madison Square Garden, New York.
In 2008 The Jacksons (Michael, Tito, Jackie, Marlon and Randy) were crowned icons at the BMI Urban Awards, but Michael was not absent. Janet presented her brothers with the lifetime achievement BMI Icon award at the Wilshire Theatre ceremony.
In 2009 Jackie, Tito, Jermaine and Marlon were preparing for a comeback album and tour and a TV documentary when all of a sudden Michael passed away. They decided to continue the TV show which premiered as The Jacksons: A Family Dynasty on A&E Ntework in December 2009. The show was sold and aired in several countries worldwide putting the brother back into the spotlight. Eventhough the brothers are all busy working on individual projects, a reunion album is still in the works....
