Funkiest Jackson 5 track: 'Hum Along And Dance'! Oh. My. God. 
I can't believe I've only just recognised this track! I never gave the Jackson 5 the benefit of doubt for their funkiness, I just thought it was all about their ABC's, or blaming it on their boogie  This, is hard, dirty, ill FUNK. Gonna buy my first ever Jackson 5 album based solely on this track 
What for you are the funkiest Jackson 5 tracks?   ..... BULLSEYE!  | |

really you should get the 'Dancing Machine' and 'Get It Together' albums for more of the same. You won't be disappointed. |

Yeah I've just found 'Get It Together' bundled with 'Skywriter'
And they have 'Dancing Machine' bundled with 'Moving Violation'! Hum Along is writen by the same guys who funked up the Temptations right? It's got that Temptations funk feel ..... BULLSEYE! | |

Their version of "I Don't Know Why I Love You" also... Kool Herc, one of the pionners of Hip Hop, was spinning this song in the 70's and became a B-Boy classic. Check Kurtis Blow's History of Hip Hop CDs, he mentions the song among others. | |

What for you are the funkiest Jackson 5 tracks? Yeah, "Hum..." is real FUNKY, have you heard the unedited version on the Joyful Jukebox Music/Boogie reisue. If you thought the Get it Together version is long, this one is 15 minutes of stank funk. Other FUNKY J5 Cuts: Get It Together Don't Say Goodbye Again Mama I Gotta Brand New Thing (Don't Say Know) Dancing Machine I Am Love She's a Rhythm Child The Life of the Party Moving Violation Body Language (Do the Love Dance) Pride And Joy We're Gonna Change Our Style They should make a J5 Funk Compilation. PRINCE: Always and Forever
MICHAEL JACKSON: Always and Forever ----- Live Your Life How U Wanna Live It | |

I just bought their 2 CD set "Gold" and heard "Hum Along And Dance" for the first time. I have been listening to that song over and over.  Andy is a four letter word. | |
