The Rare Groove classic by The Jackson Sisters was also recorded later by Mark Capanni who co-wrote the song with Bobby Taylor. Taylor is credited with bringing The Jackson 5 to Motown in 1968 and produced their first album.
The Jackson Sisters version did virtually nothing on release, reaching a paltry #89 on US R&B chart, but was picked up on by the UK Rare Groove scene in the 80s and was subsequently reissued in the UK in 1987 and got to #72 on UK Pop chart.
This 'mash-up' was originally posted on Soundcloud. Capanni's version is rather bland in comparison to Jackson Sisters so Capanni's vocals are overlaid on Jackson sisters backing.
I've also posted the individual versions for comparions.
