The Jermaine Jackson sound

No coincidence these are some of my favorite Jermaine tunes. I like the melody he put to them. A nice temp to them. If I'm missing some similar soundind tracks, please add.



You Like Me Don't You

Paradise In Your Eyes

There's A Better Way

Come To Me (One Way Or Another)

PRINCE: Always and Forever
MICHAEL JACKSON: Always and Forever

I think that whole period from Feel The Fire (1977) to Precious Moments (1986) was pretty solid for Jermaine... he got a bit bland after that.

I'd also mention "The Pieces Fit" (1980), "I Can't Take No More" (1981), "Uh, Uh, I Didn't Do It" (1982) and "This Time" (1982) - sorry, I can't seem to copy and paste YouTube links for some reason.

Of course I love all those songs listed but to me the Jermaine Jackson sound was his own. Some of those other tracks posted were writter/produced by Stevie Wonder and others.

Those first four were written and produced by him all on his own and he plays all the instruments on all of them.
