LOS ANGELES - Michael Jackson's "Bad" returns this September withnew music and never-before-seen concert video in the firstre-release of a full album from the King of Pop's catalog since hedied in 2009, Jackson's record company and estate said on Monday. The "Bad 25" deluxe package, released on September 18, commemoratesthe 25th anniversary of the original, Grammy-winning album withhits like "The Way You Make Me Feel,"and it will include demos andsongs that didn't make the final cut of the original version. The new songs were recorded in Jackson's studio while he was makingthe album, and the package also offers a DVD of Jackson'sperformance for Britain's Prince Charles, Lady Diana and 72,000fans at London's Wembley Stadium in 1988. The video was discovered in the singer's personal collection, andthought to be the only copy of the performance, taped for Jackson'sown use, the estate said. Jackson, a member of the Jackson Five family of singers and one ofthe best-selling pop stars of all time, died in 2009 of an overdoseof the anesthetic propofol and sedatives. His doctor at the time,Conrad Murray, is currently in jail after being convicted ofinvoluntary manslaughter in the singer's death. Craig Marks, editor of Popdust.com and co-author of "I Want MyMTV," said the "Bad 25" anniversary package should highlightJackson's legendary talents as a live performer and, perhaps, lurenew fans. "It continues to focus fans' attention on his music ... hopefullyit brings to the fore what an incredible live performer he was andhis songbook, given that 'Bad' was at the time considered to bevery successful but was in the shadows of' Thriller,'" Marks toldReuters. "Bad" won two Grammy awards and sold more than 45 million copiesaround the world, fueled by the popularity of singles such as"Dirty Diana," "Smooth Criminal" and the album title track, "Bad." It was the singer's last collaboration with legendary Motownproducer Quincy Jones, who helmed the production on Jackson's soloalbum "Off The Wall" and the hit follow-up "Thriller," one of thebest-selling albums in history. Marks believes "Bad" marked the end of an era for Jackson andJones, and that Jackson used the record to explore deeper strugglesfollowing the phenomenal success of "Thriller." "The paranoid romantic hell he's in, his mini snapshots of how hefelt being in the public eye so nakedly, and in some ways so alone,he wasn't able to trust many people and he felt very isolated. Youcan hear that in the record," said Marks. To gear up Jackson fans ahead of September, the late singer'srecord company will re-release the first single from the album, "IJust Can't Stop Loving You" on June 5th in the US.
