Found a pre-order on Amazon for a NEW reissue of Off the Wall on vinyl that I think will come with the documentary... What's also very interesting is it says it's 2 disc and has spilt the tracks up into disc 1 and 2... This makes me hope that it's a double vinyl 45rpm version which would be insane. It says it's being released in May... Not sure whether to pre order with the lack of details https://www.amazon.co.uk/...8wbN7T5Z04" target="_blank">Off The Wall [VINYL] https://www.amazon.co.uk/...8wbN7T5Z04 [Edited 3/23/16 16:10pm]

I'm assuming it's referring to 2 disc meaning one of the discs being the DVD documentary and the other being the vinyl. Unless they are going to be cutting the vinyl to improve sound quality as historically they used to keep the record sides to a minimum so the sound wasn't compromised. They could be going with just two songs on each side of the 1st vinyl (Don't Stop & Rock with You on Side A, Workin' & Get on the Floor on Side B and then OTW, Girlfriend & She's out of my life on Side C & I Can't Help It, It's the falling in love & Burn this disco out on Side D on the 2nd vinyl). But considering they could probably have a high quality vinyl pressing emulating the original pressing there wouldn't be much need to go to the trouble of having new dub plates made etc. Found this article which is kinda off-topic but relevant to what's being discussed:

So I was watching the Victory tour (I don't know why) and I feel ashamed at the fact i forgot how talented those Jacksons were. Randy was a beast....I still don't like his ol milkdud looking ass but goddammit he Gave me life. And I forgot how fiiiiine Jackie was. ..well is for an old man

They're still doing a fine job with their recent touring, getting great reviews. It's nice to see them silencing the solo MJ stans a bit by getting out there and delivering some great performances to good crowds.

Really?=

The only thing I am sad about with regards to the sale is that if MJ had sold this catalog himself when he was in debt, he might still be alive today. I believe that was what Randy was urging him to do. Sell the catalog, get out of debt. It took his executors to realise that was ultimately the smart move. MJ went to his grave trying to hold on to this catalog.

this the thing though, Michael already sold 50% of that ATV Catalog to Sony back in 1995....

they called it a "merging" but in all actually, he sold 50% share

in 2006, he sold another 25% share to Sony.....MJ by 2008, held a 25% share of that catalog at that point

and when he entered that deal with AEG, to secure the agreement, he had to relinquish all of his assets, including his own music catalog

by the time them shows were scheduleed, it was all or nothing

Thanks for the details Scorp. I don't understand the part where "to secure the agreement, he had to relinquish all of his assets, including his own music catalog". Why? I don't understand that part at all and do you have a source. Please share.

Gimme some moonshine and 2 Viagra I'd shake my body to the ground. .....good Lord first prince now Jackie jackson I'm surprises my boyfriend isn't little Richard

Amazing, he is nearly 65, Tito is 62 and Jermaine is 61. Marlon is the baby having just turned 59 and I don't even think he has a grey hair and still has those big ass lips.

.

And yet there is that Triumph tour video where Michael talks about he he is sick of playing those old songs, because they are old and Jackie is old (At the time Jackie was 29/30) and then Jackie shoots him a shocked look like WTF?
