NEW YORK, April 7 /PRNewswire/ -- In addition to celebrating his 25 year anniversary in music Ben Brown also plans to support Michael Jackson in person during his concert series in England. Brown the man known to the music world for discovering Michael Jackson and the Jackson 5 went on to say, "Michael, I feel, has the creative energy, talent, and fan base to equal or exceed his accomplishments to date."

A spokesperson for Brown and SuperGold International commented on Brown's own 25th anniversary stating; "In 1984 after firmly placing show business behind him; Brown was working at Washington National an insurance company in Hammond, Indiana when he received a call that his name had been mentioned in association with Michael Jackson and the Jackson 5 in a press conference in New York City." A few days later, the spokesperson went on to say a representative of the nationally syndicated television program PM Magazine flew into Gary, Indiana and arranged to interview Brown at his family home.

In reflecting on that interview Brown recalls after what seemed to be nearly a hundred questions the interviewer stopped to reset the cameras and proceeded to re-ask the same questions to get them from a different camera angle. Brown continued, "I remember thinking to myself if I can answer those same questions a second time I need to be back in show business." Following the interview a second day of shooting was held on Broadway in front of the WLTH radio studios, followed by an extensive photo shoot with People Magazine at Bud Pressner's recording studios, and then a decision to be made. "I decided to reenter show business after those events," Brown later confirmed. "I made contact with the Jackson victory tour executives. In a short while I joined them in New York City at Madison Square Garden... and it was while I was traveling with the tour that I decided to sign James Brown and get involved in his now famous comeback some 25 years ago, and thus the observance/celebration."

The planned activities associated with the anniversary are expected to include a "History and Truth" speaking tour, discussions on natural solutions to the current economic crisis, and publications of Brown's long awaited memoirs. Having worked with two of the world's most popular entertainers, one known as the "Godfather of Soul" and the other to become the "King of Pop", Brown is widely referred as a music legend in his own right as well as the "King of Career Comeback Design."

Ben Brown has earned degrees in business and communication, studied 3 1/2 years at the famed Chicago Conservatory of Music, and is currently studying law.
