Billboard: 3 new MJ albums on the way (IMMORTAL soundtrack to be released Nov. 21)

[Billyjeanplxiv]

A DVD would dissapoint me. However, a DVD/BluRay combo wouldnt. I want MJ in Blueray Quality. Remastered the way he last had it. No cropping etc.

 

[Silouette]

This sounds good to me.
Just hope we can get thru it without all the drama surrounding "Michael".

Warsaw and West Berlin?

Yes, Warsaw in still communistic Poland and West Berlin in capitalistic West Germany. Just little world's history. It was only place where you could go from communistic country without visa. When MJ had a concert in West Berlin, the Germans in East Berlin could listen to the music behind the Berlin Wall.

I heard that the Cascio Tracks will continue to be released. I'll check in to this.

This is the thread for the Cascio tracks http://www.mjjcommunity.com/forum/threads/99883-Michael-The-Great-Album-Debate
Funny, but I'm sure many who bought "Michael" cd are in doubt about the Cascio's songs, with me being one of them. It's true that they were friends, maybe MJ considered them part of his family. But I don't have to remind you what some of his "friends" or family have done to MJ. That's all I have to say about this little issue.

I have no reason so far to blame Cascios for anything wrong. They behave very respectfully toward Michael. As I stated I want to have all MJ's recording between 2005-2009 on CD. And I really wonder why Michael never lived for so long time with
any of his brothers, sisters or nephews?

 

[Hess]

I doubt they will add Cascio tracks to the next album. They know some fans thinks it is not MJ. - And those few fans will make a lot of trouble again.

They talked respectfully about him, is true. As the saying goes: "you don't spit where you eat"

 

[marebear]

I don't think the same mistakes will be made again. I hope not. If they do release more unreleased songs I hope they just leave them alone and not try to finish them in any way or change them in any way.

 

[8701girl]

If the casicos have anymore songs that dont have mj in the songs, i dont think they will be added

No new songs?

When MJ had a concert in West Berlin, the Germans in East Berlin could listen to the music behind the Berlin Wall.

I was just wondering since it sounded like you meant that they met Michael on the way there at Cascio´s house in Germany. When it was in New Jersey he stayed for those three months

I heard that the Cascio Tracks will continue to be released. I'll check in to this.

This is not true.

 

[StellaJackson]

OK, I understand it's your opinion about Cascio tracks and you have the right to have one. However I personallly ( and I'm sure many who bought "Michael" CD) have different opinion on the subject. i'm positive that it's MJ on all songs and I especially like "Keep Your Head Up". But as I stated above everybody has the right to have an opinion.

I would like you to answer some questions if you claim you know MJ's ways so well. What you think Michael was doing during so long stay in Cascio's house? And don't try to dispute the fact him not living there because I met him several time during 3 months period outside the house as well as in their restaurant. I don't live very far away but there are some fans who traveled the same way like myself with friends used to travel every Wednesday from Warsaw to West Berlin to see "Moonwalker" on the big screen in movie theathers (on Wednesdays the tickets were 1/2 price so we were able to see the movie at leat twice in one day). There are fans who met MJ next to Cascio's house several times at that time,

I can not imagine Michael not to record if there is a recording equitment avaiiable (even if it's not the best quality) and there is a young musician and an producer, whom MJ used to mentor all his life. I'm sure it was kind of an adventure for Michael to avoid the boredom. Sure he was busy with children, with business, with his dance practices but he definitely would be recording.

And I don't care what you think, I just want to have all the recording on CD. And I hope the Estate will get enough requests to officially release them soon or later.

Please come to the debate thread to discuss this and I'll gladly answer your questions. It has been stated that they won't release any more Cascio tracks. However, stupider things have happened.

 

[Hess]

I can't wait for the Immortal album to be released.

I will buy both versions!
