Synopsis

The official volume dedicated to the Royal Family of Pop, The Jacksons: Legacy offers unparalleled access to the legend that is the Jacksons. Four specially commissioned chapters deftly weave twelve days of exclusive interviews with the brothers and contributions from key players throughout their careers.

The story takes root at 2300 Jackson Street in Gary, Indiana, tracing the boys' journey from early childhood to their transformative tenure at Motown as the Jackson 5. This account maneuvers through their radical move to Epic as The Jacksons, the blossoming of their solo careers, the dizzying successes of the Victory tour, and their legacy as it stands today.

Through unprecedented access to the family archives and the personal collections of Jackie, Marlon, and Tito Jackson, the book offers an exhaustive array of never-before-seen imagery, rarities, and personal artifacts. Readers are invited to explore intensely personal family snapshots, shots of the first guitars the brothers ever held, and photographer Harrison Funk's exclusive coverage of their professional lives. The collection also captures the singular energy of Michael Jackson on tour during the releases of Off the Wall (1979) and the 1982 phenomenon, Thriller--the bestselling album of all time. More than anything, it underscores the unprecedented cultural reach of the family through vintage magazine spreads and eclectic memorabilia, including official merchandise and even original Jacksons-branded cereal boxes complete with their 7" record premiums.

Originally published to commemorate their 50th anniversary, The Jacksons: Legacy remains the definitive behind-the-scenes record of one of the greatest acts of all time.
