The Interviews Michael Jackson Masterworks – the Ultimate Song BOOKS BY CHRIS CADMAN Michael Jackson – The Early Years ISBN: 07552 00640 Michael Jackson – The Solo Years ISNB: 07552 00918 The Early Years & The Solo Years These separate volumes includes a complete, chronological listing of every album (with track listings), one-off single and collaboration Michael has released in the USA and/or UK in the pre-Motown era, for Motown (solo and with the Jackson 5), and with the Jacksons. The book includes a Chartography (USA/UK), Discography (USA & UK), and a fascinating listing of rarities from around the world. Jacksons Number Ones IBSN: 0755200985 The Jackson family, between them, have scored over 200 hits since November 1969, when the Jackson 5's I Want You Back entered Billboard's Hot 100 and Hot R&B singles charts in the States. I Want You Back went on to become the first Jackson no.1 - the first of 50 (and counting!). It is these chart toppers that form the A-Z backbone of this book - 20 by Janet, 20 by Michael, seven by the Jackson 5, two by Jermaine and one by the Jacksons, plus a further seven with a Jackson connection. The book also features a comprehensive Fact File section, including: Top 100 Jackson singles, Chartography (USA & UK), the Jacksons in the USA, and the Jacksons in the UK and around the world. MICHAEL JACKSON: FOR THE RECORD Michael Jackson first entered a recording studio in November 1967, just three months after his ninth birthday. Two years later he and his older brothers scored their first hit, 'I Want You Back' - and, despite set-backs that would have ended the career of a lesser man, Michael's legion of fans remain as loyal today as they have ever been. This is the story of the man and his music... ISBN-13: 978-0755202676 MICHAEL JACKSON: FOR THE RECORD 2nd Edition – Revised & Expanded (over 500 pages) Completely revised and expanded Michael Jackson: For The Record. As well as detailing the hundreds of songs Michael was involved with over the years, solo and with his brothers, the 2nd edition also focuses on the late King of Pop’s albums (including the Jackson 5 & Jacksons), home videos, films & short films, books, charts successes, and includes complete USA and UK discographies. OUT NOW Michael Jackson THE MAESTRO The Definitive A – Z Volumes I & II Chris Cadman RRP: UK ~ £17.99 USA ~ $25.83 Also Available On Kindle MICHAEL JACKSON: OFF THE WALL FOR THE RECORD “Off The Wall is beautiful music. Lovingly crafted superbly arranged and topped by the immaculate vocals of Michael Jackson, who’s probably the best singer in the world just now in terms of style and technique. His singing is so graceful.” – NME Two weeks before Michael Jackson turned 21 his first solo album with Epic Records was released. OFF THE WALL came during a period when Michael was hitting his next musical phase. Having not only been well received for his portrayal as the scarecrow in The Wiz film, he and his brothers also proved that they could write and produce their own material with the successful release of DESTINY. Michael also announced that he was to take control of his own career too having been managed by his father since a child. Turning 21 meant Michael was taking care of his own destiny and musical path. Dedicated to his mother Katherine and ‘The Year of the Child, OFF THE WALL was a critical success and spawned 4 Top 10 singles on both sides of the Atlantic and by 2015 it had sold well over 20 million copies worldwide, some feat when you consider his next album THRILLER was to go on to become the biggest selling album of all time. OFF THE WALL FOR THE RECORD takes a retrospective look at the album that was released in August, 1979 and how Michael and a team of A list writers and producers put it together. OFF THE WALL FOR THE RECORD covers: The album, The singles, The stories around that period, The chart success, The Reviews, The Triumph Album & Tour, in addition to Motown re-issues and Michael’s appearances has a writer, producer and backing vocalist for other artists during the 1979-1981 period. OFF THE WALL FOR THE RECORD is the first in depth look at the album that in general is virtually skipped by most authors. OFF THE WALL FOR THE RECORD is designed to give a new generation of fans and current ones the chance to look back on what proved to be a very successful campaign for Michael Jackson and the first steps to becoming a global superstar on the same scale bestowed on Elvis Presley and The Beatles. THIS IS OFF THE WALL FOR THE RECORD.

  • Playlist in 1969, Yale University Admitted Its First Women Undergraduates, Thus Ending 268 Years As an All-Male College
    YALE NEEDS WOMEN Playlist In 1969, Yale University admitted its first women undergraduates, thus ending 268 years as an all-male college. Yale Needs Women (Sourcebooks, 2019) tells their story. Here is the playlist to go with it: 22 songs released between 1969 and 1972, plus a two-song prelude from 1967. A quick scan will show that male performers outnumber women on this playlist, perhaps an odd choice given the Yale Needs Women title. It’s a reflection of the times, however. The music industry needed women too. You can find this playlist on Spotify. Search anne.g.perkins, or use this link: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/4aXLc1veNkKCMqCWd0biKE To find out more about Yale Needs Women and the first women undergraduates at Yale, go to yaleneedswomen.com. Many thanks to Rick High, Lily and Mac Perkins-High, and David and Ginger Kendall for their help in creating this playlist. Sources for the liner notes below are at the end. PRELUDE: 1967 1. Aretha Franklin, RESPECT. Aretha Franklin was the first woman ever inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and “Respect” was her first song to hit #1. She was twenty-five years old, six years into an abusive marriage that she would end in 1969, a black woman in a nation where that status meant double discrimination. “All I’m askin’ is for a little respect.” 2. Country Joe and The Fish, I-FEEL-LIKE-I’M-FIXIN’-TO-DIE RAG. Released in November 1967, the I-Feel-Like-I’m-Fixin’-To-Die Rag became one of the country’s most popular Vietnam War protest songs, particularly after its performance at Woodstock in August 1969.

  • MICHAEL JACKSON : Remembering the King of Pop
    MICHAEL JACKSON : Remembering the King of Pop by Valerie Mikell During an interview at the height of his career, Michael Jackson was asked, “What do you know for sure?” He replied, “I’m still learning…I can’t say I know anything for sure.” By that time, he’d been performing for more than three decades. He’d been crowned The King of Pop. He’d already released the world’s best selling album, which also earned a record-breaking eight Grammys during one show. If someone had asked him that same question little more than a decade later, what would he have replied? Reflecting on the dramatic twists and turns his life had taken, he may have reminded us that he knew he was talented. He knew he was flawed. And he realized that he was only human. Until his sudden passing at the young age of 50, Michael and the world may have forgotten that he was just a man. Much like Michael Jackson, the legends or icons we revere are not born into wealth or fed from birth with a silver spoon. They come from families filled with regular folk who work at ordinary jobs in the hopes of keeping food on the table. What is it that drives the artists and performers we idolize? Is it a need to stand out and showcase their individuality? Is it the obligation to make good of the gifts that have been bestowed upon them? Is it the desire to provide a better life for their families? Many of these things may have contributed to the success of Michael Jackson, who began his musical journey alongside his brothers and whose solo career catapulted himself to mega stardom.

  • Rock Album Discography Last Up-Date: September 27Th, 2021
    Rock Album Discography Last up-date: September 27th, 2021 Rock Album Discography “Music was my first love, and it will be my last” was the first line of the virteous song “Music” on the album “Rebel”, which was produced by Alan Parson, sung by John Miles, and released I n 1976. From my point of view, there is no other citation, which more properly expresses the emotional impact of music to human beings. People come and go, but music remains forever, since acoustic waves are not bound to matter like monuments, paintings, or sculptures. In contrast, music as sound in general is transmitted by matter vibrations and can be reproduced independent of space and time. In this way, music is able to connect humans from the earliest high cultures to people of our present societies all over the world. Music is indeed a universal language and likely not restricted to our planetary society. The importance of music to the human society is also underlined by the Voyager mission: Both Voyager spacecrafts, which were launched at August 20th and September 05th, 1977, are bound for the stars, now, after their visits to the outer planets of our solar system (mission status: https://voyager.jpl.nasa.gov/mission/status/). They carry a gold- plated copper phonograph record, which comprises 90 minutes of music selected from all cultures next to sounds, spoken messages, and images from our planet Earth. There is rather little hope that any extraterrestrial form of life will ever come along the Voyager spacecrafts. But if this is yet going to happen they are likely able to understand the sound of music from these records at least.

  • The Spotify Top 200 Through a Point Process Lens
    Analyzing the Spotify Top 200 Through a Point Process Lens Michelangelo Harris, Brian Liu, Cean Park, Ravi Ramireddy, Gloria Ren, Max Ren, Shangdi Yu, Andrew Daw, and Jamol Pender∗ School of Operations Research & Information Engineering Cornell University, Ithaca, NY October 4, 2019 Abstract Every generation throws a hero up the pop charts. For the current generation, one of the most relevant pop charts is the Spotify Top 200. Spotify is the world's largest music streaming service and the Top 200 is a daily list of the platform's 200 most streamed songs. In this paper, we analyze a data set collected from over 20 months of these rankings. Via exploratory data analysis, we investigate the popularity, rarity, and longevity of songs on the Top 200 and we construct a stochastic process model for the daily streaming counts that draws upon ideas from stochastic intensity point processes and marked point processes. Using the parameters of this model as estimated from the Top 200 data, we apply a clustering algorithm to identify songs with similar features and performance. Keywords: Spotify, Music Streaming, Data Analytics, Stochastic Processes, Generalized Pois- son Processes, Marked Point Processes, Hawkes Process, k-Means Clustering 1 Introduction arXiv:1910.01445v1 [cs.SI] 9 Sep 2019 Streaming music, or more accurately streaming audio, is a way of delivering sound without requir- ing you to download files from the internet. Spotify is the world's largest music streaming service, currently available as both desktop and mobile applications. Spotify provides free streaming of music to its users, with an option for a paid premium membership with added benefits such as no advertisements and the ability to listen to music offline.
