Music and Me

Music and Me was the third solo release by pop singer Michael Jackson. At this point, Jackson was one of the few artists who had success as a member of a popular singing group and as a soloist, especially considering he now had four Top 40 hit singles at the point of this release, which occurred in April of 1973. But at this point, Jackson, who turned fifteen in August, was growing frustrated with Motown's lack of direction concerning the material he was recording thus making the songs he recorded for Music and Me seem almost shallow even at his most soulful. Jackson was also experiencing vocal changes as he came in and out of soprano and was now, at least for this album, a high-pitched tenor. Since Michael was on tour during this period the album was given only token promotion and only spawned one single, "With a Child's Heart."
