Album Summary
Live At The Forum is a live album by American family musical group The Jackson 5. It was released on June 21, 2010. The live tracks contained in the album were mostly recorded on June 20, 1970 and August 26, 1972, during concerts at The Forum, in Inglewood, California.
The 1970 concert was a record-breaking show of nearly 19,000 attending, with the group only having released two studio albums and a couple of singles out up to that point. This concert is an example of the group's very early part of their career, on their first tour.
By the second show in 1972, the Jackson 5 were established icons and had seven albums on the Motown label, not including Michael or Jermaine's solo albums, which play a considerable part in the 1972 setlist. Michael's voice shows early signs of changing (as this concert was three days before his 14th birthday); he's still singing in a high-pitched voice but throughout most of this set he's straining to do so, at times screeching to hit the notes he could easily sing the years prior. Some songs were transposed to a lower key and Michael sang alternate phrasings to prevent his voice from cracking.
