Publisher Description

The only official, behind-the-scenes chronicle of the Jacksons' lives and careers, celebrating 50 years of one of the greatest acts of all time.

The Jacksons: Legacy is the first official book on the Royal Family of Pop. Unrivaled access to the family archives as well as the private collections of Jackie, Marlon and Tito Jackson, combined with 12 days of exclusive interviews with the brothers, reveals the untold, unseen, and utterly unforgettable story behind the legend that is the Jacksons.

The compelling tale unfolds from their childhood days living at 2300 Jackson Street in Gary, Indiana, through the years signed to Motown as the Jackson 5, their radical move to Epic as The Jacksons, the blossoming of their solo careers, the dizzying successes of the Victory tour, right up to the present day. A multitude of never-before-seen images, rarities and personal possessions help tell the story. Photos include intensely personal family pictures; all-angle shots of the first guitars the boys ever held; top photographer Harrison Funk's exclusive coverage of their professional lives; photos of Michael Jackson on tour with his brothers during the release of Off The Wall (1979) and the 1982 phenomenon that was Thriller-the best-selling album of all time; editions of magazines featuring the family; and official merchandise, right down to Jacksons-branded breakfast cereal boxes with giveaway 7" records attached.

Published to coincide with their 50th anniversary, The Jacksons: Legacy is the definitive behind-the-scenes chronicle of the Jacksons' lives and careers, celebrating 50 years of one of the greatest acts of all time.

    So Amazed

    I just want to take a moment to thank my cousins, The Jacksons, for the incredible impact they’ve had on music and the world. Your talent, hard work, and dedication have inspired generations and set the standard for excellence in the industry. From the unforgettable harmonies of The Jackson 5 to Michael’s groundbreaking artistry and Janet’s empowering legacy, you’ve shown the world what passion, creativity, and family unity can achieve.

    Your music has touched hearts, broken barriers, and created a legacy that will live on forever. Thank you for sharing your gifts and showing us all the power of artistry and perseverance. I’m so proud to be connected to such a legendary family!

    Michael jackson and his brothers are legendary

    I was born four years after Michael jackson death I listen to his music all the time and tried to copy his dance moves. It was quite hard, I'm still learning the dance moves. BTW Michael Jackson had the hardest dance moves. BTW he used to live in a small house. I saw a video that two people going into Michael's house and exploring the house, a person on YouTube showed that same video but he said he saw Michael Jackson's ghost
    And the viewers saw it too, I was one of them. Michael Jackson's legacy must continue.
