In 1975,

Randy, joined the group and since the "Jackson 5" trademark was owned by Motown, the brothers renamed themselves The Jacksons and moved to Epic Records where they scored more hits like "Enjoy Yourself", "Shake Your Body (Down to the Ground)", "This Place Hotel", and many more. Jermaine would not join his brothers again until the Motown 25
TV special in 1983.

For Jermaine's first album without his brothers, Berry Gordy hired a who's-who of Motown producers, including Hal Davis (who was instrumental in part of the brothers' success) and Jeffrey Bowen.
