Thriller and Off the Wall are definitely the best two. I prefer Bad to Dangerous but that can be debated as well. That was such a different era for albums. People could realistically sell 10 million or more records. Big albums were like summer blockbuster movies, just these larger than life events. Now the goal for a singer is to sell a million ring tones and get Coke to sponsor your tour.
That was an era when pop stars just seemed bigger than they are today, and no one towered above his era like MJ. Anyway, as SS said he remains a controversial figure, but I hope this thread doesn't just become an echo of tasteless jokes.

MJ was a star in every sense of the word in his prime. Before the weirdness, the man was wayyyy talented. I was a heavy metal guy/classic rock guy - and I loved Thriller and Off the Wall.
He had his issues, and regardless of the truth or falsity of the accusations against him, I wouldn't want my kids spending the night at his place.
Nonetheless, probably one of THE most talented artists in musical history. Elvis, the Beatles, Michael Jackson. Pretty short list.
