Sure Jermaine has a good voice and musical talent, but it just does not look good if you try to want to copy to a lot more successful brother. Even the album cover falls on ... this type glamor Military style but we already know of Michael. The most embarrassing evidence but it seems to be the album of the 4th song: "Escape from the Planet of the ant men". Here was obviously trying to the topic and drama of the song to copy "Thriller" ... a little scary, a little alien ... an ugly pool including (though not of Vincent Price).
On average, one can classify this album in the top league of good 80s pop and soul music, more but then not.
