ReviewsRanked #7 in Rolling Stone's "100 Best Albums of the 80s" Survey., "A magnificent helping of pop history, due in no small part to Quincy Jones's immaculate production.", 4 stars out of 5 -- "It's genius....This is a profoundly quirky and omnivorous R&B mash-up, making room for hard-rock guitar and soft-serve balladry.", Ranked #20 in Rolling Stone's "500 Greatest Albums Of All Time" - "...There was a time when he was truly the King of Pop. This is it...", 5 stars out of 5 -- "THRILLER was MJ at his breathiest and most salacious, and his most beautifully fragile....A work of genius.", 3 stars out of 5 -- "Tracks like 'Wanna Be Starting Something' remain slabs of total pop, whose genius should never by obscured by a blizzard of sales stats.", 5 stars out of 5 - "...The music stands undimmed by time....delivers some of the greatest ever pop-soul-dance-whatever...hardly a weak moment, and still no one goes 'aow' quite like Michael Jackson.", Included in Vibe's 100 Essential Albums of the 20th Century, Included in Q Magazine's "100 Greatest Albums Ever", "A masterpiece....THRILLER was a collection of songs that cohered as the statement of a young artist proclaiming his freedom...", "The entire album is a masterpiece....THRILLER is the dance album that’s still played almost 40 years later."

Additional InformationPerhaps the biggest album in music history, MJ's 1980s masterpiece is a true ambassador of what pop music can be.
