The fabulous "Who's Lovin' You" on KPOO --the track that prompted Berry Gordy to say "he may be only 11, but he's got an old soul".

Quincy Jones apparently told Bryan Monroe, journalist and former editorial director of Ebony and Jet magazines, that  "there were only two people that stood out to him, and he met them both at eight years old. One was Stevie Wonder, the other was Michael Jackson."   heard it on the NPR Talk of the nation show yesterday:

yikes -- they cover my fave Martha/Vandellas song "Honey Child", replete with roosters crowing and awful Southern-accented narration by MJ!

JJ closes with the J-5's first 45 "I'm a Big Boy Now". Ironic, considering he never really grew up.
