'Got to Be There' 1972
Michael Jackson’s first solo album was a slick affair, capturing the work of the best producers Motown had to offer. It showed off a young Jackson’s range, Bill Withers’ bluesy “Ain’t No Sunshine” opening the 10-song collection and the orchestral optimism of Carol King’s “You’ve Got a Friend” closing it. In between, Jackson had his way with a funky take on bubblegum classic “Rockin’ Robin” and the dreamy slow-dance of “Got to Be There.”
