Music & Me catches Michael Jackson at fourteen, a young singer already sounding older than his years on this 1973 Motown album, presented here as a Japanese import on SHM-CD, the Super High Material CD format.
Released while he was still fronting The Jackson 5, it was his third solo album and his gentlest, leaning toward soft soul, pop standards and tender ballads rather than the bubblegum energy of his group. Motown surrounded him with seasoned writers and arrangers, and his voice was right at the moment of change, losing the boyish brightness of his earliest hits while gaining warmth and control.
With a Child's Heart opens the album as a sweet, string-laced ballad that suits his voice perfectly. Happy, the love theme from Lady Sings the Blues, is delicate and wistful, while Too Young gives an old standard a soft, sincere glow. The closing title track, Music and Me, feels almost like a personal statement from a performer who had been onstage since early childhood.
It is a quieter chapter in the Jackson story, often overshadowed by what followed, yet it reveals a vocalist with remarkable taste and control for his age.
For fans tracing his path from Motown prodigy to global superstar, this Japanese edition offers a lovely, overlooked stop along the way.
