PartySick 143,854 Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 August 10th, 1979 is the day the entertainment industry changed forever. Off the Wall was his first album released with Epic Records rather than Motown. With promoters doubting his viability as a fully solo artist, growing animosity with the rest of the Jacksons, and a hunger to control his own career, Michael raised one not-yet-gloved middle finger and dropped the hottest disco album of all time Certified 9x platinum in the US, it's sold over 20 million copies worldwide. The lead single, Don't Stop 'Til You Get Enough, won MJ his first solo Grammy award. Singles: Don't Stop 'Til You Get Enough (#1) Rock With You (#1) Off the Wall (#10) She's Out of My Life (#10) Stream the album that closed the 1970s right here: What's your favorite track?  my personal favorite has to be Get on the Floor. Louis Johnson's bass line SLAPS. Literally  and the way he and Mike composed around it is pure genius. It's even better when it's 10 minutes long  🧟‍♂️ A haunting ghostly treat 👻 the ghoulish trickery 🔮 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ssslyboy 3,269 Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 On the Floor is actually really great (although perhaps overlooked, since not one of the smash singles). But my favorite may be a toss up between Off the Wall and Rock with You Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
