Company Recordpool, which owns the song, will team up with the Swedish music platform royalty marketplace anotherblock to release the recording in digital form. The release will be available in “open-edition” and “limited-edition” versions.

The “open-edition” comes with the original recording of “Big Boy” from One-derful studios and tracks “Michael the Lover” and “My Girl” alongside images and song stems. The “limited edition” will feature an additional nine songs that were recorded also in 1967 during Jackson 5’s Steeltown sessions.

“As a passionate MJ fan myself, I was instantly thrilled about introducing this significant piece of music history to the world and expanding the narrative of Jackson 5’s early days,” anotherblock CEO and co-founder Michel D Traore told Billboard magazine. “We engaged in numerous lengthy discussions about the recording, its meaning, history, and the optimal way to tell the story. In total, it took us about six months to piece everything together.”

The earliest recording that featured the voice of “King of Pop” was considered lost for decades before journalist Jake Austen found the master tapes in 2009. It was previously believed that Jackson’s earliest recordings came during the previously mentioned Steeltown sessions.
