The Jacksons ~ Show You The Way To Go 1976 Disco Purrfection Version

- After their initial run of #1 on Motown, the Jackson 5 decided grow up and embraced the disco sound with "Dancing Machine". Subsequent follow ups were not successful and in late 1975, the clan stated their intention to leave Motown when their contract was up. Incidentally, the royalty rate they paid out to artists was 2.8%, so Epic Records offered them 20% and that sealed the deal. Jermaine had already married Berry Gordy's daughter Hazel and left the band for a solo career.
The band was still under contract to Motown until the end of March, 1976 but allowed the group to record for their new label, but refused to let them take the name Jackson 5 with them, so they rechristened themselves the Jacksons.
The first LP released was produced by Gamble & Huff, with the singles "Enjoy Yourself" that returned them to the Top 10 and followed up by "Show You The Way To Go" which peaked at #28. That single was also notable for the B Side "Blues Away" which was the first song Michael Jackson wrote entirely on his own.
The eponymously named debut LP became their first Gold album, even though they sold more than ten million albums on Motown. This is because the RIAA who certifies these accomplishments were not able to review Motown's financial records until 1976.
"Show You The Way To Go" became a UK #1 hit, on the strength of its promotion for the first UK tour of the Jacksons. Michael is really proud of the song, saying "It showed the good regard Epic had for our signing, it was one of the best records we have ever done."

Once Upon A Time Long Long Ago. There Was A thing Called Great Music, And It Sounded Something Like This....
100 percent!
Not fking rong buddy your perfectly right 👌
2022 🎶
It WAS this 💔💔💔
Yes
10 minutes and 13 seconds of pure bliss!😊😊😊😊😊
The ending made me teary eyed😢 We miss you Michael R.I.P.
At 17 teen I would dance with a partner the full song , the hassle. We had a blast and never got tired.
It breaks me down to tears how much I love these guys and how they went to Philadelphia to work with Kenny Gamble & Leon Huff.
Those records they produced felt like somebody cared about me...ALL of them.
That’s because Motown wouldn’t let the Jacksons write and produce their own music. So the Jacksons (except Jermaine) jumped ship and went to CBS…signed with Epic and everything just took off from there.
It's 2020 and we r still listen to the Jackson 🥰🥰
Its Aug 2021 now
Jah Man
They're 4Ever!
Who's. Here. In 2022 💞💚💙💓💜💝🙏🙏🙏🙏💋💋💋💋💋. Rip. Heavenly. King
2023!😊🔥❤️
48 lost souls did not get the gist of this mini-masterpiece.
I would guess this must be one of their truly exceptional recordimgs.
Smooth like butter.
Can't go wrong with The Jackson's..
never.
Has anyone else noticed that Michael's singing can uplift so many musical styles to shine through. Whether it's the Motown machine, Quincy Jones, Rod Temperton, Gamble & Huff or his own compositions he adds such a dynamic touch to whatever he sings. What a gifted voice. Oh yeah, he could perform pretty good too. I bet his songs such as this will still be enjoyed 50 years from now.
My favorite Jacksons song. Whenever I would hear this on the radio, I would sit by the speakers to hear my beautiful Michael sing. Great work on this classic.
RIP, M.J.
This is perhaps the smoothest song they've ever made, the Jackson-Philly connection worked magically. Forget the record sells. This brought the Jacksons into adulthood and also one of the sweetest songs to dance to during the Disco area. Thanks for posting!
I totally agree this was the first album I brought by then.What a classic the songs were more mature sounding
Michael killed this live he was really into the song and the message
This song actually sold well too. Especially in the UK lol
10mins and 13secs of pure Bliss. Reminds me of my childhood in the summertime. Those brothers, were so, so good. Especially Michael.
One of The Jacksons' best tunes. One of Gamble & Huff's best tunes. Great mix! (That's all I came to say...)
Love the dance moves they perform during the bridge of this song and Randy on the congas, Tito on guitar MJ throwing his head back after a spin
One of their best songs. Shame it wasn’t a bigger hit. Nice extension!
1976/1977. I was a teen back then. Almost 60 now. Such grest times, great memories.!! Girls-girls-girls.!!
Thanks Michael, for giving the world so much joy, and wonderful songs.! RIP KING.
I use to DJ in that great disco era..this was a great hustle record..thanks for the great memories!
Yesssss sirrrrr🎶🎶
Yup 👍🏾🌻
G my Jimi VB 6o lol mk
The best 😊
Shoot family, I believe a whole of us, young, old, and in between, is getting our hustle on to this song right now!! 🙌🏽🙌🏽🎶🎶🎶
It's 2022, we've had a few crap years.
I've been listening to Michael Jackson since I was15, I brought my 8 kids up listening to him, now... my grandkids listen to him. He's here forever xx
This extended is sickkkkkkkkk🎶🎶🎶🎶🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Agreed but reading this out loud killed me😂😂 How I feel about extended tracks in general❤️
All the brothers singing together.
Back in the days 70's music.
How can anyone ever forget.
Great memories with this one.
Long live the Jackson 5....!
Peace ✌ my peoples.
One of the proudest moments in my life is, finally, having that album on vinyl.
Man this song will be in my head. I'm glad I like the 70s. I wonder if there is teens like me who stick to retro. Thx for the song. R.I.P Michael Jackson.
The Jacksons are phenomenal.
RIP Brother MJ
This song is telling you the truth what's going on in 2020 now Michael always have been the leader So I'm still following you.
.....another Gamble and Huff production...can’t go wrong with that!
This song is so soulful.📀💿🎼🎼🎼
The Jacksons are a true child of Motown! They made the Soul movement proud with classics like this! Follow me My Friend! They showed me the way to go! Way to go, Michael!
An awesome memory from my childhood. This song always took me to a beautiful place,it still does.I will always love and miss you Michael..❤
I can't believe it! A great extended track of a great disco hit!
This is by far my favorite of all Jackson 5 and Jacksons songs. The production is just amazing to me.
Fabulous. Jackson's. Rip. King 💘💗💞💚💙💓💓💜💝🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏💋💕🌷🌹🌹🥰🥰🥺.
Always loved this classic Awesome remix sing it MJ
Michael Jackson the King of Pop forever
Rest in peace, Michael Joseph Jackson, Sr. and Joseph Jackson!!!!!!!!!!!!
this is by far my favorite J5 song...so understated but soooo good...and listening to Michael's solo at the end...you feel it? that start to him changing the world...its right there
My favorite Jacksons song, and any song that Michael ever participated in, and this is perhaps the most beautiful Gamble and Huff production that I have ever heard, and that says a lot. I've heard this high quality mix many times in the past few years and it never gets old.
Underrated gem!
2021 and still loving this oldie from the Jacksons. 💞

💘 My Jackson's....
Every one Happy in those times..
What and Why Happened...
Lord ** give. Us Love ..and. Peace please....
Beautiful, Smooth and Discolicious ! The original & instrumental mixed like this is how it should have sounded in the 70,s.
I remember dancing to an extended version when I entered my first really big gay club called Le Chic, in its original concept until the 80s when it was closed down cos the 3 guys who owned it had a falling out I think. A few years later & after major alterations it was reborn as Le Chic - Part Two, before dropping the Le Chic & rebranding again just as Part Two. I remember one hell of a night Divine entered the club sat on the top of a white Rolls Royce singing Shoot Your Shot & the club erupted with cheers especially as it had not been a publicised PA. After Divine had left Part Two after a good 30 mins of catterwailing his stuff the DJ stopped the music brought up the lights and said OK Now let's have some real Disco shall we & the place went wild as he played the Jacksons Show You The Way followed by great 70s Disco music for 2 hours until close.
It was an amazing night I'll never forget from nearly 40 years ago when I was in my early 20s. Disco has lived with me all my gay life from15 to now at 64 & I think even if I get Dementia Disco will always be with me.
So Cat once again I thankyou for making the memories flood back, I just wish my aching arthritic limbs would dance the way they used to. I lay in my bed ear phones in listening to this and all your remixes I've collected and smile with happy tears in my eyes again today.
My Aunt Edna's funeral was earlier today so maybe some of my tears are for her passing too, I know they're happy tears though.
Stay safe & keep doing what you do best. Cheers Clive.
Thats so beautiful. Thanks for sharing 🤩🌟
this was a great vocal by Micheal he sung this song tremendously and this was the best song and album they every made it was nice and smooth and you could dance to this song very very gracefully
A great remix of such a smooth song! This song has always had the Gamble-Huff production sound. Imagine, if you could, Harold Melvin & The Blue Notes recording this song with Teddy P doing those MJ lead vocals!! I’d pay to hear that! Thx for yet another great remix!!!
Thats because Gamble and Huff produced the whole album and 2 other full albums
Another reason it went to #1 in the UK was that it was a very Philly-soul sounding song which was peaking in popularity in the country at the time. On the flip side it may have been the very reason for its lackluster US chart performance since the classic Philly sound was fading from popularity on the US Hot 100.
You did an awesome job there DJDiscoCatV2! I have to say what perfect timing because on Saturday August 29, 2020 it would have Michael Jackson's birthday. He would have turned 62 years old. RIP Michael Jackson. You will be miss for sure!
Happy Birthday Michael Jo Jackson Love Forever my Dear Michael Love you Sweetheart RIP Honey 💫🙌😇🍀🎂❤💋
Everything about the cover designs, the pressings of the labels and its wordings for the tracks and titles , the credits and the music created on this is simply superb... in every way. I see it and its EPIC Xx
This was the evolution of The Jacksons as a group and performers. This song was possibly targeted for the easy listening audience that were possibly huge Carpenters fans, but staying true to their fanbase. It's a slept on gem from this group.
2021, and still listening!!!
Purefection, make me feel high and specially while driving.
Paris/casabalanca
Wow ... this brings back memories. I remember when they left Motown and they became the Jacksons. It was mostly the same group minus Jermaine. Motown felt that they got the best of the deal by keeping Jermaine who they thought had the best future.
One of the big reasons the guys left Motown was for more artistic freedom. They wanted to be able to write and be part of the studio production team which Motown would not let them do.
Credit Gamble and Huff with showing them the ropes. Michael was especially happy to learn how to compose songs and work the studio gear. And the rest is history.
They did not have a bunch of big monster hits during their time in Philly but the music was decent and did ok on the charts. It was taking time for their fans to get used to a more mature modern sounding Jacksons.
Going back and listening to the albums it's easy to see how listenable the albums are. Their Motown stuff was more like a collection of singles whereas their Philly stuff was more of an album concept.
Mike also got to do some new things with his vocal styling and even further developed his dance styles.
That’s exactly what I said about the Jacksons. Basically,the albums that the Jacksons put out at Epic Records were simply a stepping stone for Michael. Michael started working on “Off The Wall” right after “Destiny” and from acting in “The Wiz”.
Love listening to all the Jacksons 5 music 🎼🎵📻🎤🎧🥰💃🏽❤ Good club music
The Jacksons and MFSB! Great Video too!
I love this channel, takes me back when you drank water out of a water hose.

Timeless classic
I did not know until today that MFSB did most of the music for this album. NO wonder.....I find it soulful, jazzy and pleasant to my ear. Love their bass sound. I have this album on CD. Love Show the Way to Go, Style of LIfe, Good Times and Blues Away. Enjoy Yourself to me was not a good song for a single, but it did sell.
Fantastic music from the Jackson's
The Jacksons
You did it again! Hustle dancing on my lunch break... thanks, Papa Cat!
