This article presents the discography of The Jackson 5 (currently known as The Jacksons), an American family band from Gary, Indiana. Founding group members Jackie, Tito, Jermaine, Marlon and Michael formed the group after performing in an early incarnation called The Jackson Brothers, which originally consisted of a trio of the three older brothers. Youngest brother Randy Jackson joined the group after Jermaine stayed with Motown Records and the brothers went to Epic/CBS Records. Overall, 23 of their singles rose within the Billboard Top 40, with the first four of them reaching #1.
