Three Classic Songs Plus Other Average Songs!
I've listened to this album through many times and still I cannot understand why this has sold so many copies. There's of course the title track, Billie Jean, and Beat It. But the rest of the material are just average material.

Thriller
I purchased 'Thriller' for my son who is a Jackson nut. I myself was never that much into the music and the hype/myth whatever behind this complex and troubled character didn't help either. I was always more of a Dylan/Neil Young guy, but I was immediatley impressed by the tremendous power and range to the voice, as well as the quality of the musicianship and Quincey Jones production. Best moment for me was EVH's killer solo on beat it. My 2 year old daughter always shouts for 'the door' (the sound of the coffin opening at the beginning of thriller) so yeah, you could say something for all the family!! Pleasantly surprised, although I don't intend to make a habit of buying MJ albums, amazon!!
Check it out if you like funk, danceable grooves, killer guitar (although economically used) and high register vocals.

Just really stunning - everybody should own this.
Jackson is just stunning on this record. The versatility and beauty of his voice is outstanding, particularly on 'Lady of my Life' and 'Human Nature'. When people describe records as "classic" they are mostly wrong. But THRILLER really is a true classic.

What a tragically early death for MJ.

first class timeless music
how can anyone not like michael jackson?have this album on vinyl,thought it was time to upgrade,even my grandchildren love it,billie jean is the business,superb.

MICHAEL JACKSON AT HIS BEST
This is a fantastic album Michael Jackson at his best. Bought this album years ago when it first came out but it was on a record album....since Michael died i decided to buy all his stuff on disc. This album is still as good as it was all those years ago...BRILLIANT!!
