5.0 out of 5 stars Finally - the correct mix of "Wanna Be Startin' Somethin'", September 18, 2008

This review is from: King of Pop: UK Edition (Audio CD)

Michael Jackson completists will want to pick this up for the CD debut of the single version of "Wanna Be Startin' Somethin'."

"The Essential Michael Jackson" says it includes the single version, but that title actually uses a new edit of the LP Version in an attempt to recreate the single. WRONG! The single was a slight remix, and it's making its CD debut here. (It should also be on the upcoming deluxe edition of "King of Pop.)

Now if only they'd use the right tapes for "Off the Wall" and "Human Nature," both remixed singles that used new and incorrect LP edits on "Essential."

what can you say Musically about Michael Jackson that already hasn't been said? 4 decades of top notch music that has touched people all around the world. as a Vocalist, songwriter, producer, Arranger, and a Many with a million and one concepts Michael Jackson always found a way to not only hang with the times but also lead the direction. a Mount Rushmore of a Musical Genius who put his stamp over so much over the years. all of his classic songs are here. his voice is amazing and the great Productions and instrumentations,etc... even when he didn't write or Produce on a track his presence is so large and ovrwhelming that you always know a Michael Jackson song and he makes them his own.He is One of the Greatest Forces of Music period. he is the King of Pop and the Man who broke down barriers and is still emulated to this day. His Music is timeless.
