THANKS




i remember my parents picking me and my brother up from the sitters house, and when we got inside my mother tossed back a bag to the backseat of the 84 monte carlo. as any child is when given a gift, we were fucking excited lol , i mean just excited we were gettin something and it wasnt x mas or our birthdays. and when i saw the picture up above, both me and my brother went crazy. it was the 12 inch vinyl of Michael Jackson's "Thriller" album. shit was JAMMIN!! still is. went straight to the crib and listened begining to end. to this day, i got in my phone and listen to it when i ride or fly in the plane. just seeing the pic of that album cover brings back memories. i'm glad to have been around to experience the michael jackson phenomena in the 80's and 90's. there will ever be a star of his magnitude ever again. and regaurdless of what his personal life may have been, no one can deny that this man was a true musical genius. after hearing that he had passed, i didnt think much of it, thinking it was a rumor. but as soon as they interupted the t.v. with breaking news, i knew it was true. i couldn't believe the shit. still can't. but all good things come to an end, eventualy and even the brightest of stars will eventually fade to black. Thank you for the memories, inspiration, and the timeless music that i know will live forever mike. God bless you!!!!
