Buried in the flood of embedded MJ videos, I came across this gem… pre-Jackson Five.
There’s something wonderfully playful, direct, and sad about this clip. The kid’s got a long, strange history in front of him…
…but right now he’s just straight groovin’!

the reward for a painful search.
amazing clip.
how great is that band?
after reading up a bit more, i think actually that is his bros backing him. sweet.
pure James Brown.
