Diana! Special aired 40 years ago!
On April 18, 1971, Diana! special show was aired on ABC.
The special featured performances by The Jackson 5, and also included Jackson 5 lead singer Michael Jackson’s solo debut. Michael Jackson performed Frank Sinatra’s “It Was a Very Good Year”, which drew laughter as its adult-themed lyrics were changed to fit his age. Other guests included Danny Thomas and Bill Cosby, who would be featured on a similar TV special by the Jackson 5 (Goin’ Back to Indiana) a few months later.
An album was released a few days after the show, on Motown.
