jennifer batten(michael jacksoin guitar player)
said that michael knows to play guitar drums,keyboard,bass.
she also said he plays it pretty good.

so my question is which one he realy plays.
on the credits for song morphine it says :michael jackson and slash :guitars
but i don't hear any guitar on it.

what are the credits for invinible ,i heard he played many of instruments himself.
did he ever play on stage?
he composed all of his best songs so he must be playing something

Miniature skin flutes, miniature hangin' sacks (sax)....

I'm so gonna get flamed... whatever!

Yeah, you are,. Mainly cause it's not funny.

Of course Mike can play instruments. Just because someone dosn't play in concert on stage dosen't mean they can't play or play good. All of the Jackson boys can play instruments (They mostly play the same: guitar, bass, keyboards, percussion, drums) it juust the matter of some of the brothers play better then the others. Mike and Tito both can play guitar, but Tito ccan probally play better then Michael. Jackie and Randy both play keys, but Randy plays better then big bro. Jermaine and Marlon can both get down on the bass, but Jermaine is a better player.

He cant play shit he is just doin a photo ops just like bush did after katrina.

madonna can play better guitar then MJ

if he could play anything invincible couldnt have cost $51mil

That has absolutely nothing to do with anythig, he was wasting money left and right. None of you would bet your life that MJ couldn't play something on an instrument, it's dumb to think he can't. There's all levels of playing btw.
I've seen MJ play guitar and Madonna probably does play better.

That's a bit harsh.

The guitar wasn't in tune, he knew how to hold it and certain chords I guess, it was really nothing but a few secs, but if he was a guitarist he woulda did somethin better. Who cares though, nobody cared what Michael could or couldn't play til' Prince came along.

some still don't care.

I don't even care what Prince can or can not play.

this again?

I'm sure he can tickle around with the instruments.. but I doubt he could do it in front of a crowd.. lets say.. (Hate to throw him in on this) but Prince on the ONA tour.. just at the piano (keyboard really).. and the acoustic guitar..


very doubtful he will/would do that..

I've just always seen the man from a entertainer aspect... nothing more..

I'm sure Michael is probably at least competant on a couple instruments, but I don't think he's going to be going to head to head with the Purple One or Stevie or Macca or Todd Rundgren or whoever on the list of greatest multi-instrumentalists. If he can play something to a high standard, he should demonstrate it, otherwise, he'll always be primarily be a song and dance man in my eyes.

That's pretty much it right there.

With all of Michael Jackson's claims to be the King, one would think if he could REALLY get down for his on an instrument he'd have shown as such on stage or screen.
