Thriller

Well, what can one say about the album that proudly holds the mantle of being the world's bestselling album of all time? The eclectic mix of funk, pop, disco, and rock sounds expertly blended by producers Quincy Jones, and Jackson presented to music lovers a collection of eternal songs for decades to come. Beat It, Thriller, The Girl Is Mine, PYT, Wanna Be Startin' Something, Billie Jean, Human Nature, and Lady In My Life. Every single song has its fanbase. Some of these compositions make you want to shake a leg, while the soft love ballads would see you hold your lover close to you on the couch while Jackson seduces you with his smooth crooning. One of the best-produced albums, certainly musically, in the world(here's looking at you all fly-by-night so-called trillionaire hip-hop stars who cannot sing a single syllable without tons of abuses for the lady who brought us into this world - our mom. Creating a musical gem with respect and devotion to the craft and humanity is possible. Thriller is a perfect example of that. It's another thing that you're the top star today, yet down in the dumps tomorrow, and no one remembers a single word from your last chart-busting hit. But, here we are still listening to the mega-gazillion successful album, a good 40+ years after its release, and pretty much remember almost the entire lyrics of each song.)Coming back to the manufacturing, it's pristine. The weight is heavy 180gm black vinyl, which sonically produces the best sounds. Currently, I have two vinyls of Thriller in my collection. The first one is from around the time of the original release in 1983(although I wonder if it is from the first batch), released by CBS Records in India. However, considering this is one album that I would be playing regularly on the turntable until I'm too old to walk around the house, hold things without dropping them to the floor and destroying them in the process, or become deaf[heaven forbid] when I can only appreciate the disc spinning, but not being able to register what's playing on the speakers, it always makes sense to have multiple copies, just in case. Hence, as soon as I noticed the black vinyl of Thriller(not the special editions with subpar remixes by other artists of the iconic songs. And indeed not the picture disc, thank you), I grabbed a copy for future use. However, this was manufactured in the UK, and the sound quality is equally good as the India release. Overall, a magnificent album and a similarly excellent manufacturing process. Indeed, a must-buy for any Michael Jackson fans, for those who appreciate good production values through hours and weeks spent in the recording studio polishing and fine-tuning a song until it sparkles like a gem for eternity, or anyone who enjoys the funk/disco sounds of the late '70s and early '80s.

I don't think there is anything that needs to be said about the album itself. It is great in every way. I mean, it's Michael Jackson. What did you expect?The more important thing for me to mention here is the quality of the vinyl and the packaging. And both were great. I'd definitely recommend this. Go for it. I was amazed at the care with which they packed the thing. Mine arrived in perfect condition. If you are a music lover or just love collecting 'antique' things, this is a must-have on your shelf.

Do you love MJ , and do you have a turntable player like to listen to this Just for it.No words, the originality of the sound cannot match any form of media.Thank you Amazon for this beauty!

Amazing

Probably the best sounding Thriller CD you can get at the moment. Hardly any loud and very clear and dynamic. If you're short on options and want some Michael, go for this. Not overpriced at all.Edit: I need to add that this is the Special Edition of Thriller, released in 2001 when (I think) Thriller was remastered for the first time. Michael Jackson served as executive producer and had the final word on the sound. Interestingly, soon as I received it, the thing went out of stock! Even after his passing, he's selling out.

Amazing clear sound no disturbance no noise .stereo and above all micheal jackson collection original analogue sound track .WORTH BUYING
