My Michael Jackson most memorable moment–
It was spring break in Detroit, my cousin took me to a talent showcase hosted by Glady’s Knight at the Fox theater. On stage, there was a group of brothers called the Jackson 5. The smallest member of the crew sported an huge Afro, wore a fringe vest, boots and had moves like the “Godfather” James Brown and a smile that captivated the audience.
This is a little known black history fact, I actually saw the Jackson 5 before they became famous, WOW what a rush!!!!
Later that year, Michael and the Jackson 5 were household names with their huge hit “I Want You Back”. I never had the opportunity to meet Michael or the Jackson 5, but the memories and music will live on.
Today MJ would have turned 60. Gone way too soon.
Happy Birthday to the King of Pop!!!!
