Berry Gordy

There First and Last show as ametures happened at the Apollo theater in Chicago. After there great preformance, Berry Gordy (founder of Motown) set up an audtion to see these kids. Well Berry Gordy loved them and wanted to sign them imediently to Motown. They were all proud and Michael was so excited he knew Berry Gordy would sign them. Right away the Jackson 5 had to get to work. There first singles that hit the top were I'll Be There, ABC, and I Want You back. After they were making tv apperances on the Ed Sullivan show but Michael didnt like this. He didn't really like tv because he thought it was too fake. Well as Motown was with them Michael and his brother's were tired of being told how to dress and how to sing. So they decided to move on with there lives and sign with CBS. Deep inside Michael wanted to stay because he didnt want to dispoint Berry, he was like a father to him. Then again Michael knew he had to move on for the better of the group and himself. Was this a good move for the Jackson 5?
