BAD25

BAD25

The BAD album was the third Michael Jackson album produced by Quincy Jones and was originally released on August 31, 1987. It was monumental in many ways; Michael wrote nine of the album’s eleven tracks and received co-producer credit for the entire album. The album was #1 around the world, made history with five consecutive #1 singles on the Billboard chart, produced ten chart-topping singles, nine ground breaking short films and to date, the Bad album has generated over 45 Million units in sales. BAD was nominated for six Grammys and won two; the album earned Michael the first-ever Video Vanguard Award at the MTV VMA Awards. Songs on the original album are: “Bad,” “The Way You Make Me Feel,” “Speed Demon,” “Liberian Girl,” “Just Good Friends” featuring Stevie Wonder, “Another Part of Me,” “Man in the Mirror,” “I Just Can’t Stop Loving You,” “Dirty Diana,” “Smooth Criminal,” with “Leave Me Alone” added to the album once released.

The BAD World Tour was Michael’s first concert tour as a solo artist. The legendary tour included 123 concerts attended by more than 4.4 million fans over sixteen months. When it concluded, the tour had shattered all previous touring records for attendance and total gross revenue adding three new entries in the Guinness World Records for the largest grossing tour in history, the tour with the largest attended audience and the most sold out shows at Wembley Stadium.

This Deluxe 25th Anniversary Edition includes three CDs, two collectible booklets, and features the first ever authorized DVD release of a concert from the record breaking BAD tour.

DVD - Michael Jackson’s legendary July 16, 1988 concert at Wembley Stadium in London. This DVD is not a compilation of performances, but rather one complete show, exactly as Michael performed it for Prince Charles, Princess Diana and the 72,000 fans who were in the audience for that night’s sold out show. The DVD was sourced from Michael Jackson’s personal VHS copy of the performance as shown on the JumboTrons during the concert. This footage was only recently unearthed and is the only known copy of the show to exist. The visuals have been restored and the audio quality enhanced so that fans can share in the excitement of that famous night.

CD1 - The original re-mastered album

CD2 - A CD containing previously unreleased material recorded in Michael’s personal studio at Hayvenhurst. This material includes early demo versions of songs from the album as well as demos for songs not included on the final album. All of this material is being released as it was recorded during the BAD sessions. Nothing has been added or changed. In addition, this CD also includes new remixes from internationally renowned DJ/producers.

CD3 - A CD showcasing the audio from the sound truck recordings of the July 16th Wembley performance. The first-ever live Michael Jackson CD to be released, this is the only concert from the BAD Tour known to exist on multitracks.

This magnificent 3 CD/1 DVD box also includes two extensive booklets with yet unseen photos from the recording sessions, video sets and the concert tour, the original BAD cover art, a two-sided poster and more.

Unheard Michael and Freddie Duets To Be Released

Unheard Michael Jackson, Freddie Mercury Duets To Be Released

マイケルとフレディの未公開デュエットリリースへ





NMEによれば、今まで公式に公開されていなかった故マイケル・ジャクソンとQueenのフレディ・マーキュリーによるコラボレーション曲3曲がこのたびリリースされるようです。




その3曲は　“Victory,” 、“There Must Be More To Life Than This” 、“State of Shock,”の3曲です。 State of Shockは1984年のミックとのコラボレーション曲の（the Jacksons album Victory)Demoとなったもの。

これらの曲は2002年にQueenのbox setに入る予定だったが著作権の問題でリリース不可となりました、 しかしロジャー・テイラーはリリースされることを確認しました。


「80年代初期のフレディーとマイケルによる未発表曲に私たちは取り組んでいます。そのことについて私は多くを語れないけれど、それらの曲は素晴らしいものです。」

※JacksonとMercury によるコラボレーションは今のところ3曲あり





1983 年の夏にマイケルはフレディをHayvenhurst （エンシーノの家）に招き、マイケルとフレディ、フレディのアシスタントのピーターフリーストンでこれらのデモセッションを5・6時間行ったと言われています。
しかしながら、すべてアルバムに採用できるような最終テイクまでできなかったり、リークされたことにより公式にはリリースされていません。

また、Queenのブライアン・メイは後にこの3曲に自分が関わったことも話しています。




Victory・・

フレディーとマイケルによるデュエット曲
この曲はクィーンのトラックとされており、彼らのアルバムHot spaceの曲として予定された
彼らのデュエットはほぼ完成されたいたけれど1984年のジャクソン側のアルバムVictoryに入る予定だったが、リークされたためリリースできなくなる









State of Shock ・・

先に述べたように、ミックとのデュエットのdemoともいえるもの
マイケルとランディ・ハンセンによる作詞・作曲
これももとはVictoryに入る予定であったもの、ネット上で視聴可能




There Must Be More To Life Than This ・・・

フレディのアルバムMr. bad guyにある一曲
もとはデュエット曲としてつくられ、一つのバージョンは二人の掛け合い、素晴らしいハーモニーが聴ける、
もう一つはマイケルのボーカルにバックにフレディのピアノバージョンがあり,フレディのソロバージョンもあるが一部ファンによるこれらを混合させたものもある　ネット上で視聴可能

NME reports that three collaborative songs by Michael Jackson and Queen’s Freddie Mercury will soon be released for the first time.

The three tracks are “Victory,” “There Must Be More To Life Than This” and “State of Shock,” which was a demo for the 1984 Jackson and Mick Jagger collaboration.

No release plan has been set, but Queen’s Roger Taylor has confirmed the songs will be issued.

“We are now working on some never before released songs that Freddie made with Michael in the early-’80s,” he said. “I’m not allowed to say too much about it, but they sound incredible.”

“State Of Shock” and “Victory” were previously set to come out in 2002, but the release was pulled.
