Top 5 album covers by Jackson 5/The Jacksons

Skywriter

You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton

1. Destiny - Something monumental about that cover, I bought a battered copy of it on vinyl (The cover was battered, the record looks and sounds fine) and it still stands out at you.

2. ABC (The letters and beach theme are so colourful and catchy, given how far back it was)

3. Triumph (I actually like Synergised artwork and Conan the Barbarian style lettering - plus the brothers ooze cool in that photo)

4. Movin Violation - the whole cod 1930s feel is refreshing for the mid 70s.

5. Victory - again synergised disco style artwork I like - even if this looks very late 70s in 1984.

Got some kind of love for you, and I don't even know your name
