The Jackson 5 made their music debut 55 years ago in 1969! Sadly, there's only 3 members left. Lead singer Michael Jackson died in 2009, guitarist and backup singer Tito just died of a heart attack on 9/14/24. Listening back to 3 eras they've achieved, I made a top 10 countdown of hits I recommend.
