As a showcase for his talent, Michael released four solo albums with the Motown imprint beginning with his debut 'Got To Be There' (which spawned the track of the same name) in 1972 and ending with 'Forever Michael' in 1975 when the star was 16. Released at a time when The Jackson 5 were still active, although the solo albums didn't achieve anywhere near the greatness or sales figures his later records did, they marked him out as a future star.
