Though Michael Jackson's Thriller lays claim to mindboggling statistics – for starters, it netted a record-breaking eight Grammy Awards and sold upwards of 70 million copies globally – that serve as reminders of how pervasive and indispensable it remains to music snobs and casual listeners alike, its essence always traces back to the greatness, power, and scope of the songs. Now, as it celebrates its 40th anniversary, the blockbuster that reconceptualized music via a genre- and color-blind blend of fleet pop, funk, disco, soul, and rock sent up with cinematic panache and dynamic energy; united audiences; made strides towards achieving racial equality; and taught the world how to dance sounds even more invigorating than it did during the advent of the Walkman.Mastered from the original analog master tapes and housed in mini-gatefold sleeve packaging, Mobile Fidelity's numberededition hybrid SACD does for Thriller what Jackson's unforgettable appearance on the ''Motown 25'' TV special in 1983 did for his career: It makes the music personal, human, desirable, relatable, imaginative – the definition of cool. This reissue does so by presenting the songs in lifelike fashion, zeroing in on the fundamentals with laser focus, and magnifying the brilliance of the production, arrangements, and vocals in ways that let everyone experience Thriller as if hearing the album for the first time. The expanse and depth of the soundstage, range of detail, air around the vocals, and natural decay of notes come through with demonstration-grade realism.
