A real sassy, head-bobbing tribute of MJ's hits. It's all instrumental with identifiable melodies so don't expect vocals here. Not a problem for this listener, I'm lovvvving it!

AWESOME describes this group of artists who offer up 36 minutes of listening pleasure. Overall, this album makes me feel sassy and sexy. It is captivating and easy to listen to... a superb mix of instrumentation!!!!!

10 tunes, each offering its own `freshness' of melody... all fine arrangements by professional-sounding performers.

Groove to the beguiling track of REMEMBER THE TIME. Niiiiiice!

My personal favorite is THRILLER... slower but still quite groovy and thrillingly sassy. I love the fresh approach to this one... sexy... sultry... seductive. Niiiiiice!

BAD has always been a fav of mine, but the melody is quite slow and not readily recognizable. BILLIE JEAN and BEAT IT, with a little slower tempo than I'm accustomed to, are treated creatively and are full of enough spunky energy to keep you alert. And, I can't ignore I'LL BE THERE...sweet guitar solo. Niiiiiice!

A sax-y DIRTY DIANA is a strong fav. It was one of the first to grab me and I'm refusing to let go. I find myself flowing with the flow.

WANNA BE STARTING SOMETHING offers a surprisingly interesting but sassy-chic approach. I've also added this one to my list of favs...it will groove you, big time!!!!!!!

All in all, I found this album fresh and different in its offering... a pleasant unique `tingle' to my ears.

Lay yourself back... delight in these smooth artist's `take' of tribute hits honoring the King of Pop.

Again, great instrumentation!!!!!!!

I really love this album and recommend it to others.

I HAVE HEARD BETTER TRIBUTES BY JAZZ I FEEL MAJOR PLAYERS WOULD DO A TRIBUTE TO MIKE SUCH AS GEORGE DUKE, NAJEE, KIRK WHALUM , EVERETTE HARP I HAVE HEARD MUCH BETTER DONE BY THE LATE GEORGE HOWARD, DIZZIE, AND EVEN STANLEY CALRK BUT THIS CD DID NOT DO MUCH FOR ME

I'm a teacher and I play it in my classroom all the time when the students are working. Too bad it's so short though. The music is great!!!
