THE RECORD OF THE WEEK:

PEPSI PRASENTIERT:MICHAEL JACKSON

(THE WAY YOU MAKE ME FEEL)

GERMANY/HOLLAND PROMO 12''

EPIC NO CAT.#/EPC 651275 6

 

 

When Michael signed a new deal with Pepsi, for the new "Bad world tour", Epic Records in conjuction with Pepsi itself started a massive advert campaign to promote the tour. The record you see in the pictures is a promotional only edition of The way you make me feel 12'', with an amazing gatefold cover showing the same BAD album artwork on front and an advert plan on the back. When you open the record, a brief Pepsi story salutes Tina Turner (the previous star sponsored) and Michael as the new icon on tour.

The record inside, is a common The way you make me feel dutch press. A common record became, with this artwork, an uncommon release, isn't it?

By the way, this "Pepsi Prasentiert" record is hard-to-find nowadays, and it deserves its place of "Record of the week"!
