{"product_id":"jackson-michael-motown-solo-collection-hello-w-cd-60251792469","title":"Michael Jackson - Hello World: The Motown Solo Collection [CD]","description":"\u003cp\u003eDonny Osmond went solo while staying in the Osmonds family group, Michael went solo as well, and was given material that made him sound more mature. \"Got to Be There,\" his first solo hit, featured a stunning, declamatory phrase that provided the name of this collection. The LP GOT TO BE THERE, released in January 1972, was followed by BEN, after the No. 1 hit title song from a film about a pet rat. BEN was first issued with a cover featuring lurid artwork from the film, which was quickly replaced by a simpler image of MJ; our package reproduces both covers in the 48-page booklet. MUSIC AND ME was next, featuring a few Adult Contemporary covers, followed by FOREVER, MICHAEL, which had a harder dance age; it included the now-classic hits \"Were Almost There\" and \"Just a Little Bit of You.\" Although MJ and the J5 left Motown in 1975 to go to Epic Records, that wasn't the end of the story.\"One Day in Your Life,\" released in the aftermath of MJs solo OFF THE WALL, turned into a No. 1 hit in the U.K. and top 40 AC in the U.S. Following the crazy ride of THRILLER, Motown released FAREWELL MY SUMMER LOVE, a batch of songs from the vault with contemporary overdubs; the title song went top 10 R\u0026amp;B. There's more: In 1986 Motown issued LOOKING BACK TO YESTERDAY, a collection of more vault masters some with the J5 that containted further unexpected gems. HELLO WORLD has all of that and these extra gems: all nine songs from FAREWELL MY SUMMER LOVE are included in their original, undubbed mixes. Plus, we unearthed the original mix of \"Twenty-Five Miles\" - Michaels cover of the Edwin Starr hit that has previously been available only in a 1987 vault collection. It's all in a splendid, hard-backed 8x 5.5 package with an introductory essay by Motown's Suzee Ikeda, a main essay by Mark Anthony Neal, pages of annotations, rare photos and repros of the LP jackets. It's deserving of the one of the greatest performers the world has ever known, at any age.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAin't No Sunshine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI Wanna Be Where You Are\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGirl Don't Take Your Love From Me\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIn Our Small Way\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGot To Be There\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRockin' Robin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWings of My Love\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaria (You Were the Only One)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLove is Here and Now You're Gone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYou've Got a Friend\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBen\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGreatest Show On Earth\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePeople Make the World Go 'Round\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWe've Got a Good Thing Going\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEverybody's Somebody's Fool\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMy Girl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhat Goes Around Comes Around\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIn Our Small Way\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShoo-Be-Doo-Be-Doo-Da-Day\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYou Can Cry On My Shoulder [Single Version]\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDon't Let It Get You Down [1995 Anthology Version]\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYou've Really Got a Hold On Me [Alternate Mix]\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMelodie [1995 Anthology Version]\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTouch the One You Love\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWith a Child's Heart\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUp Again\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAll the Things You Are\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHappy (Love Theme From \"Lady Sings the Blues\")\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eToo Young\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDoggin' Around\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJohnny Raven\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEuphoria\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMorning Glow [Single Version]\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMusic and Me\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWe're Almost There\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTake Me Back\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOne Day In Your Life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCinderella Stay Awhile\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWe've Got Forever\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJust a Little Bit of You\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYou Are There\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDapper Dan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDear Michael\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI'll Come Home To You\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGirl You're So Together [Original Mix]\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFarewell My Summer Love [Original Mix]\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCall On Me (Original Mix)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCall On Me [Original Mix]\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhen I Come of Age\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTeenage Symphony\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI Hear a Symphony\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGive Me Half a Chance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLove's Gone Bad [Looking Back To Yesterday Version]\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLonely Teardrops\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYou're Good For Me\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThat's What Love is Made of\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI Like You the Way You Are (Don't Change Your Love)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWho's Looking For a Lover\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI Was Made To Love Her [1986 Version]\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIf N' I Was God\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTo Make My Father Proud [Original Mix]\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHere I Am (Come and Take Me) [Original Mix]\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwenty Five Miles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDon't Let It Get You Down [Farewell My Summer Love Album Version\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYou've Really Got a Hold On Me [Farewell My Summer Love Album Ve\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMelodie\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTouch the One You Love [Farewell My Summer Love Album Version]\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGirl You're So Together\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFarewell My Summer Love [12\" Version]\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCall On Me [1984 Remix Rersion]\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHere I Am (Come and Take Me) [Farewell My Summer Love Album Vers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTo Make My Father Proud [Farewell My Summer Love Album Version]\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"101","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":50562769289512,"sku":"60251792469","price":42.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0933\/3833\/7576\/files\/1543526.jpg?v=1763984852","url":"https:\/\/waterloorecords.com\/products\/jackson-michael-motown-solo-collection-hello-w-cd-60251792469","provider":"Waterloo Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
