"FaVE!" Magazine Interview

Date range confirmed in Chris Cadman’s “Michael Jackson the Maestro”

"FaVE!" magazine (July 1972), From Chris Cadman’s “Michael Jackson the Maestro” (article summary/quotes)

Michael was amongst several other stars, including his brother Jermaine, who told Fave magazine of his ideal picnic.

Michael said he enjoyed the family picnics the best where they would venture out in to the hills. They always picked a certain spot by the river’s edge so they could cool off and get the dust off them from walking.

“My mom’s a dynamite cook and we can all help put our tailgate picnic together.”

And what made a Jackson family picnic?

“Corn cheese chilli; warm corn bread heaped with butter and apple pie for desert makes a Jackson family picnic a real ball.”
