Product Description

Thriller 25th Anniversary

Letter from Michael Jackson Originally released in the US 25 years ago on November 30, 1982 by Epic Records, Thriller, Michael Jackson's sixth solo album and second with producer Quincy Jones, rocketed the former child-star and lead singer for the Jackson 5 into the stratosphere of international super-stardom. Introducing the "robot" and the "moonwalk" into the international lexicon of clubland dance moves via the pulsing sounds of Thriller, Michael Jackson revolutionised all aspects of mainstream pop culture--from radio airwaves to the newly emerging art form of music videos--becoming the world's most popular entertainer in the process.

The original Thriller spent an astounding 80 consecutive weeks in the American Top 10, 37 of those at No. 1. Seven of the album's original nine tracks became Top 10 singles on the Billboard Hot 100 while individual singles from Thriller reached No. 1 chart positions in the US, the UK, France, Italy, Australia, Denmark, Belgium, South Africa, Spain, Ireland, New Zealand, and Canada. Thriller made history as the first and only record to be America's top-selling album two years running (1983 and 1984).

In February 1984, Michael Jackson held a record-breaking 12 Grammy nominations, going on to win eight, which stands as the record for most Grammy Awards® to be won by anyone in a single year. Seven of Michael's Grammys that year were for Thriller: Album of the Year; Record of the Year ("Beat It"); Best Male Pop Vocal Performance ("Thriller"); Best Engineered Recording, Non-Classical (Thriller); Best Male Rock Vocal Performance ("Beat It"); Best Male R&B Vocal Performance ("Billie Jean"); Best R&B Song ("Billie Jean"). (Michael's eighth Grammy that year was in the Best Recording for Children--Single or Album, Musical or Spoken category for "E.T.: The Extra-Terrestrial"). That same year, Michael Jackson took home eight American Music Awards and three MTV Video Music Awards. The following year, "The Making of Michael Jackson's Thriller" took home the Best Video Album trophy at the 27th Annual Grammy Awards.



CD Description

Deluxe 25th anniversary reissue of the biggest selling album of all time, a bona fide phenomenon that instantly transformed Jackson into a global megastar and has since sold over 100 million copies. Featuring no fewer than five top ten UK singles including the no.1 smash 'Billie Jean' - arguably Jackson's greatest ever song - this new version of the album also features remixes by some of today's biggest names in RnB, a previously unreleased track from the original album sessions and a bonus DVD with "digitally enhanced" promo videos including the complete 15min 'Thriller' short film which monopolized the fledgling MTV upon release.

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfection with a New Twist, 16 Feb 2008
By K. Chauhan "KayJay" (Leicester, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
For those people who aren't familiar with Michael Jackson's Thriller, this is the best selling album of all time! 104 million copies sold in 25 years, thats 4.16 million albums sold every year since its release. It has also received a record 8 Grammy Awards!!

This album is a 25th anniversary edition with a special Hardback Cover. On one side it has the Original cover in Foil, and on the other side it has the new Zombie cover in foil. It also contains a booklet with exclusive photos and a special message from Michael himself.

The album itself contains all the original songs from the Thriller Album in Remastered form for improverd sound. It then contains 5 remixes by the biggest artists today including Will I Am, Akon, Fergie, and Kanye West. These remixes give an updated sound and I believe they are the best songs you hear in todays music. Will I Am effort to update two classic songs (Girl is mine and P.Y.T.) have been executed with almost perfection and they sound new and fresh, which is what the music industry need these days. Akon's take of Wanna Be Starting Something, with his vocals and refreshed beat really is good. Fergie's Beat It and Kanye West's Billie Jean are also good but these songs will always sound cool. To improve these is just an impossible task, but it does make a good change. In addition to all of this it also contains a new exclusive song from Michael himself, "For All Time", this proves he still has the magic for music.

To put the icing and cherry on top of the gorgeous cake, this album also comes with a DVD of Michael's breathtaking music videos of Beat It, Billie Jean and Thriller in their full, uncut and remastered forms. In addition to all of this, this DVD also contains the Iconic and Legendary performance of Billie Jean at Motown 25.

Overall this is a worthy Re-Release of the most successful album of all time and it is worthy of everybody's music collection. If you weren't around when Thriller was originally released, then be a part of it and get this. If you were around when Thriller was released, then this is a worthy update for your collection.

2.0 out of 5 stars Treat or trick?, 12 Feb 2008
By Jerome Deberteix "Cyberteix" (Slough) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Thriller truly is one of the greatest gems in the history of funky/dance music. The figures speak for themselves: 104 million copies sold since its 1982 release, making "Thriller" the biggest selling album of all times! So, what about the additional audio material found on this Deluxe edition? We get one (good) unreleased song: "For All Time", and one (great) extended version of "Billy Jean". But things go terribly wrong when it comes to the addition of the 2008 versions of 4 classic tracks. Not only are these rap/urban 2008 duet versions not in harmony whatsoever with the funky style of the originals, but the so-called "duets" are not genuine since those are made of M.J's 1982 vintage vocals and other artists' vocals recorded in 2008! Not to mention that M.J. hasn't performed any new material on this Deluxe edition! You would think you're in for a treat, but you're definitely in for a trick!
A few suggestions for the 30th Anniversary edition: add some of the 2001 Thriller Special Edition bonuses such as "Someone In The Dark", the "Billy Jean" home demo, and "Carousel", keep "For All Time" and the "Billy Jean" long version from the 25th anniversary edition, add the following never released on CD extended versions: "Wanna be startin' somethin'", "Human Nature" "PYT" (Pretty Young Thing), and why not "Say Say Say", as well as "Somebody's Watching Me" from the 1983-1984 era? Then complete the set with more demos, live versions of the Thriller songs, unreleased tracks, alternate versions and original mixes from the Thriller studio sessions and you get the Deluxe edition we should have been getting this time around!
What a Deluxe edition should do is please the audience who owns the original album. This edition is trying too hard to appeal to new audiences and this is clearly a bad choice! I'll stick to my 2001 Special edition for now!

4.0 out of 5 stars A rare thing - a almost improved classic, 14 Jan 2008
The original album is a classic, and this is an improvement(mostly). The Vincent Price track is almost worth the price of the album - and should make you laugh. Even the original, corny "The girl is mine" is improved musically, but, I, personally, could have done without the rap. Same for some of the other tracks - for me they'd be better unrapped - hence the 4 stars.
