About this album

Skywriter is a polished early-1970s Jackson 5 album that shows the group stretching beyond bubblegum pop into smoother funk and soul. Released in 1973, it was part of Motown’s effort to broaden the brothers’ sound as they matured from child stars into a more versatile vocal act. The title song, along with moments like Hallelujah Day and Corner of the Sky, highlights the blend of bright harmonies, melodic hooks and tighter rhythmic backing that defined this period. It stands as a strong example of the Jackson 5’s crossover appeal and their move towards a more grown-up, expansive sound.

Genre: Soul & Funk
