Jacksons - "One More Chance" /"Give It Up"

...


One of a handful of favorites by the Jacksons...Randy plays a big part in both tunes...they sound a lot like his Gypsys stuff. Funny, if they just could've concentrated on music, and not all the other ridiculous drama...oh, well....


One More Chance




Give It Up

That's actually Marlon on Give It Up, not Randy.

That's true, I meant in terms of writing and production....

Yeah, I just meant that his work on these reminds me of tunes like "The Love We Almost Had", "I Can't Wait", "Not Because of Me", and "Luv Thang" on the Randy and The Gypsys disc...I wish those tunes were on youtube!

I love "Give It Up." It's such a joy to listen to the vibe the brothers had together as a group. I may be in the minority, but I really do wish Michael would do something with his brothers again.

Randy is underrated! Talented guy.

I love both "One More Chance" and "Give It Up" though. Michael sounds awesome in the latter.

I have a version of "One More Chance", that was done by Janet, It was an a special edition of her "Janet", Album. Hers is okay, but Randy's is really nice.

I adore Give It Up.

Totally agree w/ you. I love the Jackson's group vibe too. Michael needs to stop tripping.
