Astazi ramanem in familie, si ce familie mai buna decat cea a Jacksonilor. Mai invatam si noi cate ceva. Cum am mai specificat, mai jos, luna trecuta cred, Motown Label a detinut o perioada de timp Motown Productions, care s-a transformat in timp in de Passe Entertainment, deoarece doamna in cauza, Suzanne de Passe, a devenit patroana. In momentul in care cei cinci frati din Indiana se aruncau pe culmile muzicii, pentru o mai buna promovare, (si pentru ca ei asa sunt, show-business-ul american, se gandesc la toate, pentru a promova un artist), au au avut doua emisiuni realizate si promovate de Motown Productions. Asa cum Diana Ross avea Diana! sau Smokey Robinson The Smokey Robinson Show, pentru valorosii noi veniti au fost doua emisiuni Going back to Indiana si The Jackson 5 Show.

The Jackson 5 starred in two of their own television specials, Goin' Back to Indiana(aired September 16, 1971)The Jackson 5 Show (aired November 5, 1972).
Motown Productions' original focus was on the production of television specials for its star recording artists. These included TCB (1968) and G.I.T. on Broadway (1969), starring Diana Ross & the Supremes with The Temptations, The Temptations ShowThe Smokey Robinson Show (1970), Diana! (1971) starring Diana Ross, and Goin' Back to Indiana (also 1971) starring The Jackson 5. When Suzanne de Passe joined Motown in 1968, much of her work involved the production of these television specials. Motown's first television series was The Jackson 5ive (1971 - 1973), a Saturday morning cartoon by Rankin/Bass starring characters based upon Motown's popular teen act.

Bineinteles ca au avut si invitati, si nu pe oricine: Bill Cosby, unul dintre veteranii stand-up comedy, muzician, jazz mai ales, si printre multele emisiuni sau show-uri cum spun ei, a co- prezentat Copii spun lucruri traznite, Bobby Darin un artist care a dorit sa realizeze cat mai multe, deoarece avea o sanatate foarte fragila, si asta a si facut, pana la varsta de 37 da ani, cand a incetat din viata, din cauza unor complicatii ale inimii, la doi ani dupa aparitia in emisiunea Jacksonilor, si cum se putea sa lipseasca Miss Ross; lista continua dar lasam Wikipedia sa ne mai spuna cine a fost prezent.

The Goin' Back to Indiana television special featured comedians Bill Cosby and Tommy Smothers, singers Bobby Darin and Diana Ross, football players Roosevelt "Rosey" Grier, and Ben Davidson, and basketball stars Bill Russell, Elgin Baylor, and Elvin Hayes. It also featured tracks recorded by the Jackson 5 during their May 29 "homecoming" concert in Gary, IndianaThird Album). The album went on to sell 2.6 million copies worldwide.

Pana anul trecut, cand tot mapamondul a primit un BAM! aceste inregistrari erau absolut de negasit. Acum o mare parte la gasim la un domn foarte iscusit Jackstill78, dar si la Strawberrymj si Bigstone3.
