Daily Riffage

Seriously.  How awesome was Michael Jackson?

Man, we’ll be celebrating the anniversary of his passing for years.  If you don’t think MJ was as big as (if not bigger than) Elvis, you’re kidding yourself.  Remember last year… Michael Jackson broke Google.  Michael Jackson caused MTV and VH1 to resort back to playing music videos.  At Sony Music, MJ single-handedly bolstered the record label for the financial year.  Unbelievable.

Regardless of your opinion on his personal life – the man made some funky jams… even in his crazier days!  Hell, “You Rock My World” from Invincible is classic!  I don’t know if anything tops Thriller though.  7 singles… on a frontline album… and they all reached the top 10!?  Are you kidding me?

Rest in peace, Michael Jackson.  Thanks for the tunes.
