I am with you on that! I also use it a lot in my live sets because I
usually drop a psuedo-disco set somewhere whenever I do parties and the
attendees are older than 22 which they usually are for me! For all his
"eccentricities" Michael was certainly at the height of his musical powers
during that part of his life and Quincy Jones, who I met a couple of years
ago and talked to about this, regards those 2 albums as some of his best
work as a producer. the musicianship on "Off the wall" is superb and the
arrangements are excellent.
