Diana Ross Presents the Jackson 5 was the debut album from Gary, Indiana-based soul family band The Jackson 5, released on the Motown label in December 1969.
Ross' alleged discovering of the Jackson 5 was in fact part of Motown's marketing and promotions plan for the Jackson 5; Motown artists Bobby Taylor and Gladys Knight were the ones who had actually discovered the Jacksons.
The Jackson 5 version of the song supplanted the Miracles' original as the definitive recording of the song, and many of the future covers of the song (for example, En Vogue's cover at the beginning of their 1990 single "Hold On"), are based upon this version.

 diana-ross-supremes Mp3 Albums Review
Diana Ross and the Supremes had recorded so much material that still remians untouched to this day but what was considered by Motown to be the best of the bunch were dusted off from the vaults and assembled for the Let The Sunshine In (1969) LP.
Ross packs in a breathless, impressive tour de force performance that arguably even outshines the original whilst certainly proceeding to be one of the major highlights alongside the small ratio of hits to be found on the LP.
Diana Ross and the Supremes were at their peak now and were no longer hitting the charts with as much sure-fire regularity as they once had.

 The Jackson Five
Jackson tries to get scary on "Threatened" a la "Thriller." He tries to get freaky and over-amped on "2000 Watts" but the metaphor is written badly, and the music adds sound effects instead of intense ensemble playing.
Motown released three Jackson 5 albums in a two year time span (the debut was released in December, 1969), then put out a hits package and two more studio albums before 1972 was over.
Jackson has never moved at the fervid pace that many great rock/pop performers/players have moved when on an inspired roll.

 Jackson 5 (and solo work)
Diana Ross to James Brown claims credit for discovering the group of singing youngsters from Gary, Indiana; one way or another, they found their way to Motown, got teamed up with songwriting team The Corporation, and immediately hit the top of the charts.
Since then the other male Jacksons have become a footnote to history (sister Janet is a different story), and Michael has remained the world's premier tabloid target and continued to sell astonishing numbers of records.
Jackson's voice is in peak form, without overdosing on annoying mannerisms (but listen out for the hiccups in the title track).

In 1970 the group consisted of Sigmund Jackson (Jackie) (19), Toriano (Tito) (17), Jermaine (16), Marlon (13) and Michael, but the three oldest boys had already been performing for eight years - known as the Jackson Family - their three-part harmonies were augmented by cousins Johnny Jackson and Ronnie Rancifer.
It wasn't until 1964 that Marlon and Michael (at the ages of 7 and 5 respectively) were judged ready to enter show business and joined the vocal line-up, relegating their cousins to pianist and drummer.
In June 1968, Berry Gordy and Diana Ross attended a fund-raising concert for Gary's mayor - the brothers were on the bill and Gordy was sufficiently impressed to sign them on the spot.
