Black Sabbath Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 Al Capone was the best of the three, followed by Abortion Papers. Price of Fame was alright.Really cool to hear unheard MJ tracks, though. Thanks for posting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zint Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 They sound like demos that morphed into songs we already know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bacardimayne Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 (edited) Al Capone is basically Smooth Criminal in another key.Not that there's anything wrong with that.EDIT: Oh, they're from the Bad era. So this is basically a Smooth Criminal demo. Awesome. Edited September 12, 2012 by bacardimayne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freddie Mercury's Ghost Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 I might actually like Al Capone better than Smooth Criminal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ColdHeartBreaker Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 I had high expectations when I knew these were to be released, Al Capone sounds awesome. Really glad they found a way out, are these leaked? I know they are supposed to feature on the bad 25th anniversary edition which was due on the 17th.

Will there? There are multiple versions available: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bad_25I took it straight off the website, and Wiki's consistent with the track listing, they're giving us 9 new songs with some remixes and alternate versions. The fansites have 30 songs that were either recorded or demoed, some of which Jackson gave to others, never released, or changed like "Al Capone". Some of them are on "Ultimate Collection". They're not putting everything out, but the Spike Lee documentary sounds like it's going to be really good, even the snobby movie critics are liking it - they're airing it on Thanksgiving.

There is undoubtedly plenty more songs in the vaults, perhaps even hundreds. We can expect a gradual release of all of these tracks every year, I'm not sure where all the money goes but it's clear a dead MJ is still a money maker. It's only a matter of time until we get a part two of the Michael album.As for the amount of BAD-era songs, there's approx 60-70, apparently.It wasn't the only revelation for the crew at Westlake. It turned out in the interval between Thriller and the official start of the Bad sessions, Jackson had written some 60-70 new songs. Eleven ended up on the official album, leaving numerous great tracks on the cutting room floor in various stages.Over the past couple of years, under the direction of Jackson's estate, a team has been carefully archiving and digitizing these demos. "Some tracks we found were very early recordings," says Jackson estate co-executor John Branca. "Some were actually so complete that any other artist but Michael Jackson might consider them finished tracks. Still others were in between." Of these, six demos were chosen for Disc 2 of the forthcoming Bad 25 box set (out September 18).Full article http://www.theatlantic.com/entertainment/archive/2012/09/abortion-fame-and-bad-listening-to-michael-jacksons-unreleased-demos/262242/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dalsh327 Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 I thought a lot of people were challenging the "Michael" CD as being mostly bogus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColdHeartBreaker Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 Not me. It's a conspiracy theorist's dream. The mere notion of secret plan hatched by the record company and it's big wigs to employ a impersonator (Such as Jason Malachi) to trick the world into believing they're MJ songs is just a little ridiculous. There's a lot of digitalization on the vocals, but that's hardly proof. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
