"When I had you to myself
I didn't want you around
Those pretty faces always made you
Stand out in a crowd
Then someone picked you from the bunch
One glance was all it took
Now it's much too late for me
To take a second look
Oh, baby, give me one more chance
To show you that I love you
Won't you please let me
Back in your heart
Oh, darling, I was blind to let you go
Let you go baby
Cause now since I see you it is all
I want you back
Yes, I do now
I want you back
Oo oo baby
I want you back
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
I want you back
Now now now now...."

I WANT YOU BACK

Today's WELCOME TO THE SHOWROOM: JACKSON 5 - THIRD ALBUM INDIA LP
TAMLA MOTOWN STML11174

This is a recently purchased gem:a mega rare indian press of the "Third album" by the Jackson 5. It's an original press, and it comes with similar labels to some other countries releases (like UK), but carrying the writing "made in India" on them. The thick carton sleeve is in black & white on the back. The conditions of this copy are simply amazing, for a 1972 release!

THE RECORD OF THE WEEK : CAN'T LET HER GET AWAY
COSTARICA PROMO MAXI 12''
SONY MUSIC 81014193

JUST THINK ABOUT IT:how many albums in the music history got the power to extract 10 singles in a 2 years row?
ONLY 1:it's "Dangerous". The 10th single should have been the title track (with a massive 10th videoclip shooting to promote it) and it was never released; BUT... there's an obscure 10th release taken from the album:it's this "Can't let her get away" Costarica exclusive release, distributed to radio stations for promotional use only.
The record comes with a palin white sleeve, "Can't let" on side A and blank B side. White labels with typical design used for all the other Costarica promo press released at the time.
No doubt:this is one of the rarest 12'' of the entire MJ discography, a must-have for all the King of Pop collectors!
