   I recently heard the Four Tops version of "I Can't Quit Your Love" and I can really see how much it inspired the Jackson 5ive's version.
   
   I spent many hours standing in front of the family 8-track player wearing headphones while listening to the J5's Skywriter album. Then I got a pocket sized transistor radio and could listen to music anywhere, which reduced the number of hours I stood there at the 8-track player.
   
   (Radio Shack's battery club really helped. Each month I could get a free 9V rectangular battery to power my listening.)

      Of course, I also listened to the Jackson 5ive version again. All I can say is that I must have cranked the bass in those days, because what I heard on YouTube sounds the same except a lot less bassy.

      So according to the list that YouTube has, Skywriter contained 10 songs. I remembered 9 of them.
