Michael Jackson Memoir Re-Released

Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Music, Child Stars, Rumors

Michael Jackson’s memoir, Moonwalk, will be re-released by Random House in October. First released in 1988 by Doubleday, the book initially sold around 500,000 copies.

“A well-known figure in the entertainment industry who was close to Michael,” has instigated the re-printing, but right now no names are being released. The book has been out of print for more than ten years. New proceeds from the memoir will go to the Michael Jackson Family Trust and several additional charities.

Listen to New Michael Jackson Track

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Music, Videos

For years now, I’ve made the habit of adding asterisks to my age.  (I’ll just say that I’m somewhere around 30****.)  Now the release of a special album has forced me to address my declining youth once again.

Tomorrow, Thriller 25 will be the latest Michael Jackson CD to hit the stores.  This means we’ve now hit the classic album’s silver anniversary.  (Technically, it was released in December 1982.)  I swear I can see his protruding wrist bones splashed inside the cover like it was yesterday…

Tuesday’s deluxe edition will not only include remixes of the classic tracks (contributing artists include Akon, will.i.am and Kanye West) but several bonus songs as well.  One of those new additions, “For All Time”, is a record that never made the original cut.  It has since been tweaked for the 2008 update.  (You can listen to it here.)  While I would not consider the song memorable, it does bring back fond memories of a less freakish era.)
