Jermaine is the debut solo album from American singer Jermaine Jackson, released in 1972, two months after the release of Lookin' Through the Windows. It reached number 27 on the Billboard pop albums chart. The singles, "That's How Love Goes" and "Daddy's Home", peaked at No. 46 and No. 9 on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart, respectively.

The album was arranged by David Van DePitte, James Anthony Carmichael, David Blumberg, The Corporation, H.B. Barnum and Gene Page. Berry Gordy was the executive producer and Jim Britt responsible for the cover photography.

Record World called the single "That's How Love Goes" a "gentle soul swinger."^[2]
