Come and Get It: The Rare Pearls

Come and Get It: The Rare Pearls

4000 Limited Edition Copies

The Jackson 5 burst on the music scene like a ray of sunshine in late 1969, reeling off four consecutive No. 1 hits and inspiring worldwide Jacksonmania. They also recorded constantly, and a treasure trove of newly discovered, previously unreleased recordings by Michael, Jermaine, Jackie, Marlon and Tito are being released for the first time on Come And Get It: The Rare Pearls. Produced by Deke Richards, leader of The Corporation, the Jackson 5's original hit songwriting-production team, the extraordinary 32-track, 2-CD set enough songs to fill three Jackson 5 albums is housed in a special box with deluxe packaging that includes not only the two discs but a vinyl 7-inch single, rare photos, essays and detailed information.

Come And Get It: The Rare Pearls is rich with gems, among them If The Shoe Don't Fit, a Corporation classic that coulda-woulda-shoulda been a smash hit. Our Love, led by Jermaine, is destined to become a new wedding favorite. If You Want Heaven updates the classic Motown sound, while Iddinit, If I Can t Nobody Can and Would Ya Would Ya Baby hint at a new funk direction for the brothers. Love Trip, a ballad, points in the direction a solo Michael would take in the next phase of his career.
There are also striking covers, done J5-style, including Mama Told Me Not To Come, a No. 1 hit for Three Dog Night; Jackie DeShannon s Movin ; the pop/soul perennial Up On The Roof; a Stax nugget, I Got A Sure Thing; Traffic s Feelin Alright, in a studio version that became a staple of the J5 live show; and new versions of Motown chestnuts You Can t Hurry Love, Keep An Eye, I m Your Sunny One (He s My Sunny Boy) (all originally by the Supremes); Since I Lost My Baby (Temptations); Lets Go Back To Day One (Eddie Kendricks); and Label Me Love (Different Shades Of Brown).
Bonus tracks are: producer Deke Richards original unedited version of That's How Love Is, a rarity which first appeared on 2009's I Want You Back!: The Unreleased Masters; Richards original extended mix for If I Have To Move A Mountain, an LP track issued in 1972; and a super treat for J5 fans, the demo for Mama s Pearl, previously hidden deep in Deke's personal vault.

Come And Get It: The Rare Pearls is housed in a unique package: a 7-inch square box packed with the discs in their own sleeves; an oversized booklet featuring detailed annotations, rare photos, and essays by Deke Richards and author/professor Mark Anthony Neal; and an actual 45-rpm, 7-inch vinyl single in a slick picture sleeve If The Shoe Don t Fit b/w Feelin Alright.
