No words can describe the thrill (get it? LOL) I felt when I first saw it, it's simply beautiful and at a bargain price. Definitely a collectors item. If you're a MJ fan then it's a must. Rating: - * The Greatest album of the last century ... where do I start on the King of pop? the man Changed Music as we know it period. everbody that comes after him is in his Musical Debt. He took the best of the Past and created his whole style of music making and creativity. He is a Musical Genius. this Album represents the best in so many styles of Music. hard to believe it's been 25 years. WOW the time sure flys. where do I start:: Wanna Be startin somethin: the Groove and I call it the Jump beat vibe is Classic MJ. His vocals and the Background Swing era call and response and then the trademark classic ending are what classic songs are all about. Baby Be Mine: this Jam hits so hard and soulful and you can make the argument that this Rod Temperton classic was a Pre-Cursor to New Jack swing on the Groove and those classic MJ vocal runs. still sounds so fresh. The Girl is Mine: middle of the road track featuring two Musical Icons and it works.though it still sounds milk toasty to me,but it worked in setting the album into Motion. Thriller:the instrumental element of this track moved me more,but the video made this track for me more than anything else. it fits into Michael Jackson stylings as a Artist. Beat It: the song that truly broke Racial barriers on MTV and also on Top 40 Radio back in the early 80's. the teaming of MJ and Eddie Van Halen never gets it's full due but it paved the way for a Run DMC and Aerosmith on 'walk this way" and other Rap/Rock Hybrid teamings. Michael jackson's voice really sounds strong on this classic. the programmed drum Beats sound New and have a freshness about them. MJ was on to something Billie Jean: Arguably the Greatest song Ever. easily the best song of the 80's no doubt. what made this song so great? was it MJ's vocals? was it the Bass? was it the Drums? was it the Story-line? was it the Chrous? was it the Groove or synths? how about all the above and thensome. and Motown 25 when Michael set himself in motion and took off His Legend truly took off. that moment back then in 1983 is still the Single Greatest Musical Performance on TV that I have ever seen. timeless. Human nature: this song is Jazz. and the build up and emotions felt on this track still will melt you with the ease of Michael's vocals and timing. still so smooth and dreamy. PYT(Pretty Young Thing): a tough dance groove of a Jam that had the smooth Mackness of Michael's vocals and the background vocals were on point. the Main Writer of this song James Ingram Provided the Groove which he also used on carl carlton's "she's a bad Mamma Jamma" and played the bulk of the instruments on that cut. the same Groove is basically re-cycled here but Producer Quincy Jones adds his trademark Elephant african voicings on here. the Lady in My Life: what a way to close a classic Album out. a smooth slow jam which has MJ laying it out there. very smooth and timely. the arrangements are all on point.. the Team of Michael Jackson and Quincy Jones, were unstoppable. but the Artist Himself Michael Jackson changed the whole World of Music. He ruled the whole world and he made a Album that it will be talked about 100's of years from now. a Genius with no Limits and a Trend-setter who truly left His Mark. Michael Jackson is a Musical Trail-blazer. |

Where the NBA Dynasty series (the other initial entry is the slightly meatier Los Angeles Lakers: The Complete History) outdoes Ultimate Jordan is in the six playoff games--one for each year--as they were originally broadcast, minus halftime and commercials. Having the nearly complete game (usually running 90-100 minutes, from the TV introductions to post-game interviews) means you can skip straight to John Paxson's clutch basket or what was expected to be the final shot of Jordan's career. Or you can savor each game in its entirety, all the better to appreciate the artistry of Jordan in his three-pointer barrage against Portland or his "flu game" against Utah. You can see other great players too, of course, including Jordan's teammates--Scottie Pippen, Horace Grant, Dennis Rodman--and those opponents unfortunate enough to face the Bulls--Clyde Drexler, Charles Barkley, John Stockton, Karl Malone, and others. Because these are all NBA Finals games, you won't see Jordan's shot over Craig Ehlo or his 63-point coming-out party against Boston, but the 1990s Chicago Bulls were a team for the ages, and merely having their games--some of them all-time classics--available for home viewing is a major milestone in archived sports. --David Horiuchi

While last-minute heroics tend to be the standard by which we define excellence, there are many other moments that have left an indelible impression, many of them highlighted here. The video clips fall into 10 categories: Dunks, Alley-oops, Assists, Steals, Blocks, Teamwork, the Clutch Shot, Moves, Hustle, and Buzzer-Beaters. At the beginning of each section is a brief introduction. Before showing the top 10 dunks of all time, for example, we learn about the evolution of the dunk--from the first slam to the man who could fly, Michael Jordan--and we hear background commentary from NBA legends such as Magic Johnson, Charles Barkley, Dr. J, and Bill Russell. This video recalls familiar moments of NBA lore that you will want to own for countless repeat viewings. --Jeremy Storey
