STRANGER IN MOSCOW

USA promo cd 2 tracks

Epic/Sony ESK 8859

"I was wandering in the rain

Mask of life, feelin' insane

Swift and sudden fall from grace

Sunny days seem far away

Kremlin's shadow belittlin' me

Stalin's tomb won't let me be

On and on and on it came

Wish the rain would just let me

How does it feel (How does it feel)

How does it feel

How does it feel

When you're alone

And you're cold inside?..."

TODAY'S WELCOME TO THE SHOWROOM:

THE BEST OF MICHAEL JACKSON

JAPAN CASSETTE

MOTOWN/VICTOR VCW1707

 

 

A little hunt can bring big news sometimes. It was late night, and I was looking for something to buy on the web and suddenly I saw THIS little treasure. It's an original 1975 japanese cassette, released by Motown/Victor, of the album "The best of Michael Jackson"!!!! It comes with a wrap-around-the-case sleeve (just like a big obi) and a japanese lyrics sheet inside the shell.

Do I have to say it? I've never seen this cassette before!! Japanese cassettes are very rare nowadays, and I'm sure this is an amazing discovering, as well as a nice addition to this collection!

 

 

MICHAEL JACKSON 'ONE'

PLAYBUTTON

OFFICIAL LAS VEGAS MERCHANDISE

 

 

Collectors! Pay attention to this little "button", indeed a little mp3 storage sold to the "ONE" shows by the Cirque Du Soleil at Las Vegas. It contains 2 tracks...with 2 UNRELEASED mixes by Kwevin Antunes, played at the shows. The tracks are "Jam" (a special version similar to the "Immortal" mix, but with a different intro and a little Michael speech on it) and "Human nature/Never can say goodbye", a mash-up between the two songs with a lightly stripped arrangment of "Human nature". This is the only way to get those mixes officially, and the format is lovely for its originality; the button has 3 ways to control the songs (Play, forward, and rewind) and you can connect it to your pc by an usb cable (included in the box) to add a few other songs - or extract the unreleased mixes!!!

The box is very very little, as you can see from the pictures:less than an half of a cd! Don't miss this wonderful and collectable item!

Today's WELCOME TO THE SHOWROOM:
MICHAEL JACKSON:ALL THE SONGS -
THE STORY BEHIND EVERY TRACK
BY RICHARD LECOCQ & FRANCOIS ALLARD 

 

I've waited some months after its release, then I decided to buy this book. And, believe me, this a must-have for all the Michael Jackson fans!!! This book has an hardcover sleeve, with a lot of pictures inside and details about EVERY song and video Michael published, from the very first album "Diana Ross presents the Jackson 5" to the latest "Xscape". It includes some rare tracks (for example, "Got the hots" and "Men in black" are IN) and almost all duets, even from other artist albums. Don't miss a copy before it's too late!!! It's not cheap, but you'll be satisfied!
Look at the pictures to discover some random pages of this King of Pop bible!

ARGENTINA PROMO VCD

 

 

  This is a rare promo vcd including the full lenght version of the "You rock my world" video featuring Chris Tucker and Marlon Brando, distribuited exclusively in Argentina for the launch of the 2001 "Invincible" album. This vcd was released in a very few copies, and it became an hard-to-find item since its release. The front sleeve artwork is similar to the US promo release, and it comes with a classic cd case with front & back inserts (see pictures).
P.S. These pictures are dedicated to a dear friend of mine, who's not here with us anymore.  It was his favourite collector's item.
Ciao, Daniele.
