Available for the first time in paperback: cultural critic Joseph Vogel's smart, insightful, and moving exploration of the solo works of Michael Jackson--a wonderful gift to fans on the tenth anniversary of his death.When news broke of Michael Jackson's death on June 25, 2009, the world mourned his death by celebrating his work--some of the most joyful and cherished songs of our era. Of course, even outside of his music, Jackson's life was notable--by turns enviable and eccentric, always fascinating and relentlessly public. Much attention has been paid to his life as media fodder, but rarely do writers give his recordings given their proper critical due. In Man in the Music, Joseph Vogel expertly guides us through the works of the King of Pop, album by album, from "Thriller" to "Bad" and beyond, leading us on a tour of inside scoops, trivia, interviews, cameos, setbacks and breakthroughs, failures and triumphs, that is as much fun as the songs themselves.
