The Jackson 5 were one of the biggest phenomenons in pop music during the early '70s, and the last great group to come out of the Motown hitmaking machine before Marvin Gaye and Stevie Wonder shifted the label's focus to more individual visions.
Live at the Forum is a live album by the Jackson 5. It was released on June 21, 2010. The concerts were recorded on June 20, 1970 and August 26, 1972 at The Forum, in Inglewood, California.
The 1970 show was a record-breaking show of over 18,000 attending. Only having two albums and a couple of singles out, the band were able to draw such a big crowd. This concert is an example of a very early part of their career.
By 1972, the Jackson 5 were established icons and had seven albums on the Motown label, not including Michael or Jermaine's solo albums, which plays a big part in the '72 set. Michael's voice shows early signs of changing (as this concert was 3 days before his 14th birthday), he's still singing in a high-pitched voice but throughout most of this set he's straining to do so, at times screeching to hit the notes he once could sing the years prior.

^Previously issued, in part, on the soundtrack to The Jacksons: An American Dream in 1992.
^^Originally released on the soundtrack to Save the Children.
- The band's usual opening song, 'Stand!', was excluded from the release because the boys were having technical difficulties. Jermaine’s vocal microphone was off and his bass amplifier was inaudible, so the show had to be stopped for several minutes while the sound crew fixed everything.
- 'Ain't No Sunshine' was recorded the night after, at the San Diego International Sports Arena, August 27, 1972. It was edited into Michael's solo set, where in the San Diego show, it was else where in the set.
- 'Mama's Pearl' was taken from their concert in Indiana, May 29, 1971. It is one of the 5 unreleased songs from that concert.
