5.0 out of 5 stars Hidden treasure!, July 8, 2009

By	Henrique Peirano (Brasilia, Brazil) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Absolutely one of the best CDs of all times! If you really liked the choreography of the Jackson 5 and Michael's first solo album, you will love this CD. You'll find yourself imagining the opening, all the moves they do, and the finale without having been to any Jacksons concert. This CD is almost a hidden treasure, since a lot of people don't know about its existence. I'm just sorry there isn't a DVD of the show to go along with it.

Here's the correct track listing:

1. Opening/Can You Feel It
2. Things I Do for You Listen
3. Off the Wall
4. Ben
5. This Place Hotel
6. She's Out of My Life
7. Movie and Rap (Including Excerpts of: I Want You Back/Never Can Say Goodbye)
8. Medley: I Want You Back/ABC/The Love You Save
9. I'll Be There
10. Rock With You
11. Lovely One
12. Working Day and Night
13. Don't Stop 'Til You Get Enough
14. Shake Your Body (Down to the Ground)

5.0 out of 5 stars Jacksons "All The Way Live", June 26, 2009

By	Michael A. Hicks (Sagamore Hills, Ohio) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

From the opening pounding of the drums, laced with striking horn riffs and the chant "Can You Feel It"?, the Jacksons break into a high-powered, high-energy performance that captures them in rare form. This cd is still hot till this day, because no other group had a front man like Michael Jackson

Being a musician, I really get off on live performances that are well done. The Jacksons deliver on this live set, about as comparable to their "Goin Back to Indiana" live set. If only Jermaine had been on this set, it would've been a phenomenal effort. But don't let that statement take anything away from how good this cd is.

Michael was really coming into his own at this point, having released the successful "Off The Wall" album in 1979. His trademark vocals became apparent, as he gave a flurry of "He-he's" "Wooo's"

I enjoy every song on this cd, but the truncated medley of their very first hit singles really didn't do it for me. I hate medley's, and feel they should be outlawed, because you lose the experience of having a song done in it's entirety. Ben, one of Michael's early hits was not medlized, and the performance Michael does on this song is extraordinary.

A real funky joint on here is, "HeartBreak Hotel". Tito's axe is wailing on the one through the whole piece. His guitar was clean, clear and precise as only Tito would have it. Dude can play, so I can only imagine how dynamic all of this would've been hearing Jermaine on the bass. The drummer, Jonathan Moffett is real good on this set as well.

After they whip through the medley, the Jacksons regroup, and let Michael break off into his "Off The Wall" groove. "Rock With You" was a very good choice to come back on, as the Jacksons took advantage of a little crowd chorus joining, and Michael gives 'em his patented "He-He" and they dazzle the rest of the way.

After RWY, the Jacksons go back/forth doing a cut from their collective stuff, and then give the reigns back to Michael doing Off The Wall stuff. They close the set out with "Shake Your Body Down To The Ground" and finish off in grand style.

This cd showcased the Jacksons live talent, and was a precursor to the phenomenal live shows that Michael would perform, on his was to being the Greatest Entertainer that ever lived. Second to None!

Give this performance 100 stars. To Michael, and the Jacksons, "I Love You". Michael rest in peace, we were all blessed to experience your creativity, energy, charisma, showmanship, dedication, and love. May God Bless & Keep You 4 Ever.

It's so hard losing someone so special. I'm celebrating Michael's life by listening to his music, and just can't believe this has happenned. I know I'll shed plenty of tears over this, but right now I just want to relive the magic, and be so proud of what he has left us all.

God Bless Joseph and Katherine Jackson, and the entire Jackson Family. Your lives has brought a lot of joy into my life, and that I'm so thankful to have experienced.

MJ 4 Ever!

By	[e-mail] "mistermaxxx" (usa) - See all my reviews (TOP 50 REVIEWER)

nothing like the jackson's live especially back in the day. great singing and harmony and so many great songs. the backing band was grooving and everything was on point. a non stop jam and feel good session from start to finish.
