"2300 Jackson Street" is a 1989 single released by the Jacksons from their album of the same name.[3][4] It is the only song on the album featuring Michael and Marlon Jackson, as they had left the group before further recording sessions. The song also features two of the Jackson sisters: Rebbie and Janet. "2300 Jackson Street" is about the Jackson family's childhood home on 2300 Jackson Street in Gary, Indiana.[5]
Music video
The music video was directed by Greg Gold and produced by Phil Rose.[2] The video features most of the Jackson family members. La Toya is not featured in the music video nor the song, as she was estranged from the family at the time. Marlon, while he sang on the track, also did not appear in the video. Some scenes include the Jackson family playing pool and Jermaine, Tito, Randy and Jackie playing football. It also shows some members of the Jackson family singing the song together. The video was shot in March 1989[6][7][8][9][10] in Hayvenhurst, Encino, Los Angeles.[2]
