and that's all. it doesn't matter to me, though i find it hard to believe he can't play anything at all even to a basic level, he's just too musically inclined and every so often, he even writes songs too.rolleyes

On the real, I don't think the Jackson 5 was the band playing on the Jackson 5 records.

I think MJ gets by on beatboxing and a little keyboard for writing songs.

Yep.

Anyway, apparently they were restricted from playing on the records, but they never understood why because they had to learn it to play live in concert anyway.

He's credited with drums, guitar and some keyboards on a few tracks from HIStory and BOTDF. He's fine in the studio, so I've heard. Playing live is another matter. I doubt he can properly jam around or have the confidence to either.

In the commercial, the piano music and his supposed playing of it were out-of-sync, so I doubt it was real.

On net - I have no idea. But you can watch it on the Dangerous Short films VHS/DVD.

I am not doubting that MJ play instrument here or there. However, I play no instruments, but could still get my picture takin' pretending to do so. It's not really hard proof is it?

For real.. I never heard him on a drum kit ever.

I can imagine he gets percussion credits though for beatboxing, beat programming, and the aforementioned auxilary bits.
