I am very excited about this. The older SACD's were all so expensive no matter where you looked. I see its also up for pre order on Acoustic Sounds so I'm gonna hold off and wait for a European vendor. 40,000 copies is a lot!

Showing as €50 incl. shipping from the UK MJ store, but is $30.00 before tax, shipping on Acoustic Sounds. If needed, I'll splash for it on the MJ Store.

I’d like to get this one. No, just the Hybrid SACD which is supposed to be one of the best, if not the best way to listen to Thriller. I've preordered the double CD on Amazon.de but will keep an eye out for a better deal. It's nice to see people on Super Deluxe Edition and the Steve Hoffman Forum get excited about some MJ too.

I’ve wanted SACD’s so many times before so this will be my first one and what better album to be first one than Thriller!

Paul over at Super Deluxe Edition is spot on;
“Jackson’s reissue campaigns over the years have been the very definition of ‘missed opportunity’, regularly embracing whomever the hot names are at that particular time (how’s it going, Afrojack?) and not getting the basics right (none of those sought after 12-inch mixes from the Bad-era appeared on Bad 25, which was a slum-dunk dereliction of duty on the part of the compilers.”

What the fuck is that 40th anniversary logo.
Once again, I'm disappointed in the Estate. No surprise there.
Although I am mildly tempted by that vinyl...

I'd rather they release nothing rather than put out a shit half assed release every 5 years.
I'm not buying something with such an insulting cover design. Fuck that. I'll listen to it on Spotify. It's not like it has any special packaging or book/booklet anyway.

I'm not going to knock this since it appears to be following the Bad 25 mold which is (sadly) the best Estate release so far.
We'll probably get 8 demos of which a couple might be unheard. The Weeknd played Starlight on his radio show so that's a lock. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for Buffalo Bill making an Abortion Papers style appearance on the set.

I’m wondering if it’s a way to present the album in higher sound quality? 🤔 Although, actually, reading it again it does say they -also have plans to release a two-LP set at a later date. I’m awake now 😂

£90 for music you've heard a million times before, but in better quality? And during a cost of living crisis globally?
Nah, this is not what hits the spot and expect a lot of people to pass on it. If Sony was disappointed with the sales of Bad25, I'd like to see their faces after this one during worse economic challenges than in 2012. 🤷♂️
I'd rather something better for OTW or later albums than Thriller yet again. Ah well....more dosh going into the savings and investment accounts! Much more exciting.
