Which Jackson brother had the best late 80's Album.

Marlon's Baby Tonight came out around July 87, (a little before BAD and rigt after Control). He had a hit single with Don't Go [#2 RnB] and his LP went Gold.

Jackie's came out in 1989 called Be The One. He had a couple of RnB charting hits but nothing like Marlon.

Randy's came later on October 4th titles Randy & The Gypsys. I don't even think his LP charted but out of the three, it is my favorite.

Randy...by five miles!




...

Jackie made a album for Motown too.....

The best tracks from his first LP is the single Love Don't Want To Leave and Do I Owe

Love Don't Want To Leave has been included on a couple J5 compilations.

Love Don't Wanna Leave is a J5 track isn't it?, I didn't know it was a Jackie Jackson song.

I don't think the solo albums by Jackie, Randy or Marlon were released in the UK as I can't even find catalog numbers for them.

There's some open (hiphop) drums on "Is It Him Or Me?".

I really liked Marlon's video though....

and Jackie's ...wasn't there a song called "stay" or something....

oh...and Randy's...


but I'm easily entertained

Yep. Oddly, i was playing both marlons "baby tonight" and jackies album today.


Jackies is more midtempo funky pop (?) and marlon goes uptempo alot of the time (yes!). both are good in places.

Jackies album is very upbeat.


"we're supposed to have fun"

Jackie's is more laid back R & B

Marlon's is Up-Tempo R & B

Randy's is more New Jack Swing-ish

I missed Jackie's first album. The second was okay. I loved the song Cruisin' and he had a duet with former Ms. America, Suzette Charles. Still love Wait on the Victory album.
