Listen "Michael Jackson's THRILLER at 40: Breaking Down the Biggest Pop Album of All Time"
Episode Synopsis
For our first Record Club of the new year, we attempt the modest task of tackling one of the biggest, if not the single biggest, pop LPs of all time, Michael Jackson's THRILLER, following the recent celebration of its 40th anniversary. How does the record hold up today? As an album, does it live in the shadow of its singles or does it hold up front-to-back? How do those singles land today, and what do they say about Michael's ambitions and vision for his artistic persona? And what's the deal with The Girl Is Mine? Join the conversation in the comments, and let us know what you think of this landmark record.
