Gary, IN, February 10, 2023 –(CarryOnHarry.com)– Reynaud Jones, a loving husband, father, and grandfather who spent forty years in the field of community corrections and also dedicated his time to the music industry, has completed his new audiobook, “The Long Journey to Glory: My Side of the Jacksons Story”: a firsthand testimony of the beginnings of one of America’s most legendary music icons told by someone who was present from the start.

“‘The Long Journey to Glory’ is a personal account of how an enterprising African American youth taught himself to play the guitar, organize singing groups, show bands, and promote talent. It is the story of constant struggles and personal desires to break free of cultural chains and find his rightful place in history amid continuing needs to find peace with God—desires to obtain the trappings of earthly glory amid the constant fear of forfeiting heavenly glory, desires to be an influential entrepreneur amid the never-ending need to do something worthwhile for God and mankind. I am that American youth. And I have finally decided that this is the time to speak up, and to speak out loud, so the people of the world will know where the real beginning of the fabulous ascent of Michael Jackson and the Jackson 5 in the entertainment field took place,” writes Jones.
