Jackson 5 1981 TRIUMPH Tour Los Angeles "Things I Do For You" LIVE

Here's to the memory of Michael and the Jackson 5 at their peak. In 1988, Rolling Stones magazine declared the TRIUMPH Tour one of the Top 25 concert tours from 1967 - 1987. Watch the second song of the show "Things I Do for You" and dig it !
Video source is the tattered 4 camera pro shot from the LA Forum September 1981, downsized to improve resolution and color. Audio source is from LIVE, reworked to replace the tattered original audio track. Let's hope the Jackson Family will produce a TRIUMPH Tour DVD to let us relieve the power for future generations. This was the magic of the young adult Jacksons !!

MJ way better than his brothers

[SireBonham]

MJ was the frontman, and the frontman has a different job to do than the backup. All of the brothers including yound Randy were doing a lot to keep the energy hot!

my favourite song from the off the wall album! whats the move called at 2:25

[SireBonham]

that looks like some type of shuffle step. probably a quick search under James Brown's dance moves would reveal something similar

Bass and drums well played. If someone wants to learn grooving, just listen to this or similar one. I´m a drummer and i like to play these grooves. Nice video :)

@26karysa He was better than his brothers...I think they all knew that. I don't think anyone is going on a limb with that info...

But at the same time...if he is one of the best signers/entertainers ever...then he BETTER be better than all his brothers to say the least. He had God given talent...nothing his brothers could ever do was going to give them what MJ had. But if you think of it, most superstars' families are NEVER compared to their fam, because its a moot point.

@RebelAllianceMedia I agree with you. And that's why many of us are hoping the BAD tour will be released by the estate on dvd. That would be awesome!!

@SireBonham MJ, especially in the beginning solo years, used a bit of J.B. moves, but of course added his own embellishments because Michael knew tap, some ballet, and many forms of dance. Eventually, Michael mastered so many dance moves and added untold numbers of his own creations. That's some of why he was inducted into the National Dance Academy Hall of Fame.

THE JACKSONS RULE!!!

@MuzikMichael Listen to MJ sing Beat It on the Victory Tour, Bad Tour and Dangerous Tour then listen to it on the HIStory tour, to me anyway its blatent. HIStory tour is obvious, go watch it. Dangerous had afew songs lyp-synched, as i said the 90's, MJ did some lyp-synching BUT his dancing was off the chain, like imagine singing whilst dancing like that?, only he could. His voice here is epic man!
