Another world record in possession of 'Thriller' lies in having remained at number one on the charts for two consecutive years (1983 and 1984, respectively), a feat never emulated to date. The late king of pop sees his most defining album - and the best-selling album of all time - reissued once more.
Blue obi features a gold star and black box; the gold star advertises "The Girl is Mine", "Billie Jean" and "Beat It" as being 3 major hit singles, thus indicating a repress. Despite the high number of sales, the two number ones collected on Billboard charts and his emerging stardom as a superstar, he believed to be worthy of a greater number of awards (especially the Grammy ones) because only scored one for the song Don't Stop 'Til Tou Get Enough, in 1980.
Michael JACKSON - Thriller (Special Edition) Vinyl at Juno
I just picked up a near-mint copy of the first pressing (no co-producer credit for MJ on the back cover) for five bucks, and I can't imagine nobody ever played it, but it's ridiculously quiet and clean. I actually have a first European pressing from the early 80s to compare this with and this one is not worse. This pressing has great dynamics, and while I hear a couple instances of sibilance, there's no way I'd play big bucks for an audiophile upgrade when this sounds so damn good.It is also the most sold in the United States, in tough battle with Eagles''Their Greatest Hits (1971-1975)'.
