Michael Jackson was labeled 'genius' at a very young age, as the one and only lead singer of The Jackson Five. Off The Wall, with which the world heard him for the first time as a young man, proved that he was worthy of that qualification. It was the start of his solo career and the prelude to his next record Thriller, which would become the best-selling album of all time and bring him his new
… honorary title: King Of Pop. Under the supervision of Quincy Jones, Jackson delivered his most soulful material with Off The Wall. The title track is one of the slickest on the record, and shows its silky smooth approach to dance music. The lively Working Day And Night was the foretaste for the singles Don't Stop 'Til You Get Enough and Rock With You, both of which reached the number one position. The album also included some romantic songs, each of which would become classics in its own right. With She's Out Of My Life and Girlfriend, Michael proved that he hadn't lost his unsurpassed sense of love songs.more
