The Jackson 5 have sold more than 100 million records worldwide. The four eldest of the brothers embarked on their Unity Tour in 2012 following Michael's death, and they planned several major performances for 2017. In 2001, the Jacksons reunited on Michael's 30th Anniversary Celebration TV special. The remaining four released the poorly received 2300 Jackson Street album in 1989 before being dropped from their label. After the Victory tour, Michael and Marlon left the group. They released the Victory album the following year, followed by an extensive tour which also featured songs from Michael's solo albums. In 1983, Jermaine reunited with the band to perform on the Motown 25: Yesterday, Today, Forever TV special. The brothers also released solo albums, most successfully Michael. At Epic, they released four studio albums and one live album between 19, including the successful albums Destiny (1978) and Triumph (1980) and the singles " Enjoy Yourself", " Shake Your Body (Down to the Ground)", and " Can You Feel It". The group left Motown for Epic Records in early 1976, with the exception of Jermaine, who was replaced by youngest brother Randy. They also achieved sixteen Top-40 singles on the chart. In 1968, they left Steeltown Records and signed with Motown, where they were the first group to debut with four consecutive number one hits on the Billboard Hot 100 chart with the songs " I Want You Back", " ABC", " The Love You Save", and " I'll Be There".
The Jackson 5 performed in talent shows and clubs on the Chitlin' Circuit, then signed with Steeltown Records in 1967 and released two singles. The group were among the first African American performers to attain a crossover following.
They were managed by their father Joe Jackson. The group was founded in 1964 in Gary, Indiana, and for most of their career consisted of brothers Jackie, Tito, Jermaine, Marlon and Michael. The Jackson 5 (sometimes stylized as the Jackson 5ive, also known as the Jacksons) are an American pop band composed of members of the Jackson family.
