What is the history of the use of Tito, Marlon, & Jackson on background vocals?
Yes, it's pretty established many of the Jackson 5's recordings used background singers other than the brothers [[and with the brothers). Let's take the early recordings [[1st 3 albums), for example. Did any of these most likely use only the brothers' backing vocals? A lot of the slower, ballad-like numbers [[i.e. "I'll Be There") used very intricate harmonizations which, in my opinion, lead me to believe that these are mostly [[if not all) session singers. Thoughts?
