Originally released on Epic (38112).Digitally remastered by Bernie Grundman (Bernie Grundman Mastering, Los Angeles, California).The finest example of perfect disco pop, and a record that should be prescribed to musical snobs and manic depressives. The album is a true ambassador of what pop music can be. Jackson whoops and dances through a suite of unforgettable melodies that should be danced to with a smile on your face. Each track offers at least one musical hook, whether it is the beauty of 'Human Nature' (who can resist the 'dada dada da da da') or the 'whoo whoo' of 'Billie Jean'. It's all too good.

Top Reviews Review created: 05/06/06 by: 6 of 10 people found this review helpful. This being the biggest selling album of all time, this has to be great-and it is. Every song is amazing, from the ballads to the more rocky tracks, there is something for everyone. MJ is a genius, full stop. It is a must have. Review ID: 10000000001093765 Was this review helpful? Report this review Reviews Review created: 22/07/08 by: I haven't got any Michael Jackson CDs, though I love his music from the 1980's - 1990's. This album also has the added extras. Thriller is one of Michael Jackson's best albums, so I wanted to add it to my CD collection. It's a very funky CD, that can be played in any era and still be enjoyed by young and ols.

I was wrong - the tracks sound dated and the EXTRA material at the end is a pain - just when you think the album is over someone starts interviewing someone else. Dont bother with it would be my advice. Review ID: 10000000007107459 Was this review helpful? Report this review IF theres is only Three things I remember when I die.
