At that time The Jackson 5 were already three years recording at Motown and had a huge amount of hits behind them. Motown decided to launch also solo careers of Jackson 5 members. They started in January 1972 with the release of Michael Jackson’s first solo album “Got To Be There”. Jermaine’s first album was released seven months later, between the albums “Lookin’ Through The Windows” and “Skywriter” from The Jackson 5, and in the same month Michael scored his first #1 hit record with the single “Ben”. As a member of The Jackson 5, Jermaine already had famous songs were he sang the lead. The ballad “I Found That Girl” (B-side of the #1 hit “The Love You Save”) and “She’s Good” (B-side of the #2 hit “Never Can Say Goodbye”) were already recognizable songs with Jermaine’s voice. Besides Jermaine and Michael, Motown released in October 1973 also a solo album of Jermaine’s oldest brother Jackie Jackson. The album “Jermaine” became a decent hit. In the U.S. it reached #6 in the R&B chart and #27 in the Pop chart. For this album Jermaine worked with the same team of producers that also worked with The Jackson 5, which were Hal Davis, Jerry Marcellino and Mel Larson, and The Corporation™. Also Johnny Bristol and G. Jones and P. Sawyer produced several tracks for the album. The Executive producer of the album was Berry Gordy. The opening track of the album is the song “That’s How Love Goes”, which became the first solo single of Jermaine. It is said that The Jackson 5 perform the background vocals for the song, although it’s not stated officially on the album cover. The album follows with the Four Tops classic “I’m In A Different World”, “Homeward Bound”, “Take Me In Your Arms (Rock Me For A Little While)”, produced by Hal Davis, and “I Only Have Eyes For You”, which was produced by The Corporation™. The B-side of the album starts with the song “I Let Love Pass Me By” and it follows with the up-tempo track “Live It Up”, which was also produced by The Corporation™, “If You Were My Woman”, “Ain’t That Peculiar” and “Daddy’s Home”, another song produced by The Corporation™, which was released as second single with on the B-side “Take Me In Your Arms (Rock Me For A Little While)”. Jermaine Jackson: Discography! // The Solo Years 15 1.1 The Motown Years 1.1 The Motown Years JERMAINE, 7” SINGLES That’s How Love Goes - Printed in Spain, 1972 (M-5129) From the album “Jermaine” two singles were issued. Jermaine’s first solo single was the song “That’s How Love Goes”, which was released in July 1972 in a regular white sleeve. An interesting note is that the B-side of the single contains a song that has never been released on an album of Jermaine Jackson, called “I Lost My Love In The Big City”. The single became a decent hit, but it didn’t match to the figures The Jackson 5 were used to. In the U.S. the single reached #23 in the R&B chart and #46 in the Pop chart. The single “That’s How Love Goes” was also released in several European countries in various nice picture sleeves. The second solo single for Motown was the song “Daddy’s Home”, which was released in November 1972. The song was a cover of the 1961 hit of Shep and the Limelites. On the B-Side of the single was track number four from the album “Jermaine”, which was the song “Take Me In Your Arms (Rock Me For A Little While)”. This single did a lot better in the U.S. charts compared to the first single. It reached #3 the R&B chart and #9 in the Pop chart. The single “Daddy’s Home” was released in several European countries and came in various picture sleeves. That’s How Love Goes / I Lost My Love In The Big City A nice live version of the songs “That’s How Love Goes”, “Daddy’s Home” and the song “Ain’t That Peculiar” was released on a live album of The Jackson 5 that was released in Japan only in 1973, called “In Japan!”.

    PROWLER: Stories by Conor Hultman A thesis submitted to the faculty of The University of Mississippi in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the Sally McDonnell Barksdale Honors College Oxford May 2019 Approved by _________________________________ Advisor: Professor Beth Ann Fennelly _________________________________ Reader: Professor Dustin Parsons _________________________________ Reader: Dr. Kathryn McKee i DEDICATION For Emma Richardson, who got me started, and for Beth Ann Fennelly, who kept me going. ii ABSTRACT CONOR HULTMAN: Prowler: Stories (Under the direction of Beth Ann Fennelly) These are a collection of five short stories. Their common feature is the use of the first-person perspective. The intent of these prose experiments was to find the limitations of the first-person narrative, to see how it could be disfigured and reborn. In preparation, I read several books with my advisor that are known for their strong first-person voices. These included: If I Die in a Combat Zone, Box Me Up and Ship Me Home by Tim O’Brien, Always Happy Hour by Mary Miller, The Mezzanine by Nicholson Baker, Birds of America by Lorrie Moore, and The Collected Stories of Amy Hempel. I also undertook personal research, drawing inspiration from the writings of Stephen Dixon and Larry Brown, among others. What I found was that, for all the rules that are often associated with short story writing, successful stories are as unalike as possible. I began to feel I had the right to experiment in every facet of my work. Under the direction of my advisor, I learned to mettle these flights of imagination with sense and taste.

  • The Glory of Africa Part 5

    The Glory of Africa Part 5

    The Glory of Africa Part 5 Once again, it's on. I envisioned writing about my people before the year 2000. Back in the 1990’s, I started to understand my glorious black cultural identity. My parents had books on black culture stretching back in the 1970’s. I am truly appreciative and happy about describing the wonderful legacy of my own people. Looking at 2012 and beyond has opened my eyes about new issues plus future horizons. The essence of the beauty of Africa is found in that great continent’s people, wildfire, its environment, and its glorious history. In real life, I know brothers and sisters from the States who went into Africa and they had an excellent time over there. Hopefully before I meet up with the ancestors & God, I will have chance to visit Africa. With all of the occurrences in the Universe, it’s time for us to be active in executing real solutions directly for our people. We live in profoundly interesting age that deals with economic, technological, and social issues. We are in a new phrase of the human rights movement. The world is ever complex with its cellphones, I-Pads, smartphones, and other computerized devices, but the GLORY OF AFRICA is never diminished. Africa is the black people's sovereign land. I am blessed to be black. I am black and I am beautiful . Far too often, society omits the real significance of Black African history. On the other hand, in this prose, real history will never be obfuscated here. Our people made momentous accomplishments from music to engineering.

Prior to Michael Jackson’s untimely death, Firestone has performed as a Michael Jackson tribute artist in live shows such as 'MTV Magic' and 'Around the World' in Asia. He also performed for 'Legends in Concert' in Myrtle Beach, 'LaCage' and 'Masquerade' in Atlantic City.

    “The Greatest Gift Is the Realization That Life Does Not Consist Either In

    “The greatest gift is the realization that life does not consist either in wallowing in the past or peering anxiously into the future; and it is appalling to contemplate the great number of often painful steps by which ones arrives at a truth so old, so obvious, and so frequently expressed. It is good for one to appreciate that life is now. Whatever it offers, little or much, life is now –this day-this hour.” Charles Macomb Flandrau Ernest Hemingway drank here. Cuban revolutionaries Fidel Castro and Che Guevera drank here. A longhaired young hippie musician named Jimmy Buffett drank and performed here, too. From the 1930’s through today this rustic dive bar has seen more than its share of the famous and the infamous. It’s a little joint called Capt. Tony’s in Key West, Florida. Eighty-seven-year-old Anthony ‘Capt. Tony’ Tarracino has been the owner and proprietor of this boozy establishment since 1959. It seems Tony, as a young mobster, got himself into some serious trouble with ‘the family’ back in New Jersey and needed to lay low for a while. In those days, the mosquito invested ‘keys’ (or islands) on the southernmost end of Florida’s coastline was a fine place for wise guys on the lam to hide out. And this was well before the tee-shirt shops, restaurants, bars, art galleries, charming B&B’s and quaint hotels turned Key West into a serious year-round tourist destination. Sure, there were some ‘artsy’ types like Hemingway and Tennessee Williams living in Key West during the late 50’s when Tony bought the bar, but it was a seaside shanty town where muscular hard-working men in shrimp boats and cutters fished all day for a living.
