Vem skrev låten i want you back?
Jackson 5
"I Want You Back" släpptes den 7 oktober 1969 och var den första Jackson 5-singeln som släpptes av Motown och den första låten som skrevs och producerades av The Corporation, ett team bestående av Motown-chefen Berry Gordy, Freddie Perren, Alphonso Mizell och Deke Richards. Det är också den första av fyra Jackson 5-nummersinglar som släpptes i rad (de andra var "ABC" - 1970, "The Love You Save" - 1970 och "I'll Be There" - 1970) och den första Jackson 5-låten som spelades in i Los Angeles, Kalifornien. Kvintetten hade tidigare spelat in Bobby Taylor-producerade covers, inklusive "Who's Lovin' You", B-sidan till "I Want You Back", på Hitsville U.S.A. i Detroit, Michigan. Basgången på "I Want You Back" anses av många vara den bästa genom tiderna[av vem?] och har därför väckt många debatter om vem som spelade bas under inspelningen. Kända The Funk Brothers var Motowns backup-musiker och efter företagets flytt till Los Angeles bytte bandmedlemmar. Många tenderar att tro att det var James Jamerson som spelade bas under inspelningen men han var mest aktiv 1962-1968. Under de senare åren av sin karriär hade Jamerson blivit opålitlig på grund av missbruk. Det mesta tyder på att en ny medlem av Funk Brothers, Wilton Felder, var basisten.
Jackson 5
"I Want You Back" was released on October 7, 1969 and was the first Jackson 5 single to be released by Motown and the first song written and produced by The Corporation, a team comprising Motown chief Berry Gordy, Freddie Perren, Alphonso Mizell, and Deke Richards. It also is the first of four Jackson 5 number-ones released in a row (the others being "ABC" – 1970, "The Love You Save" – 1970, and "I'll Be There" – 1970) and the first Jackson 5 song recorded in Los Angeles, California; the quintet had previously been recording Bobby Taylor-produced covers, including "Who's Lovin' You", the B-side to "I Want You Back", at Hitsville U.S.A. in Detroit, Michigan. The "I Want You Back" bassline is considered by many as the greatest of all time[by whom?] and thus has sparked many debates about who played the bass during the recording. Famously The Funk Brothers were Motown's backup musicians and after the company's relocation to Los Angeles band members changed. Many tend to believe that it was James Jamerson who played the bass during recording but he was most active from 1962-1968. During the later years of his career Jamerson had grown unreliable due to substance abuse. Most evidence suggest that a new member of the Funk Brothers, Wilton Felder, was the bassist.
