Feel the Fire is the fourth solo album by Jermaine Jackson, and his second post-Jackson 5 solo album.[2] It was dedicated: "to Jai, born January 27, 1977".
Production
Feel the Fire is the first album for which Jackson did some producing and writing for himself. The album includes Tower of Power's horn section, and Stevie Wonder's ex-wife Syreeta.
