Just out of interest, when did he *start* getting the surgery? Between OTW & Thriller? They were running a video of "BAD" yesterday and it struck me that this man had no resemblance to Thriller Mike, as pictured above.

TOO SOON. TOO SOON. IN POOR TASTE AND WHY CANT YOU JUST LET THE MAN REST IN PEACE. I DARE YOU TO SAY THAT TO HIS DAUGHTER, YOU HORRIBLE HORRIBLE CRETIN. TOO SOON.
OTW = discos. "Leave the 9 to 5 up on the shelf". GROWN.
Thriller = playgrounds. "Did you see Mike moonwalk???" KIDS.
Shit wasn't *less* LBE or something. I know plenty of Mary's (elder Becky's... lol) that need to hear "Don't Stop 'Til/Off The Wall/Rock With You" in order to get their groove on.
Older Black folk listen to Thriller as well.
U guys have a hard time coming to grips w/ Jones & Jackson's deliberate attempt to Crossover?
OTF wasnt all over pop/rock radio. Thriller was the answer to that especially after OTW helped the Music Industry stay boyant.
It so obvious that dude reached out beyond the LBE. OTW is embraced way harder because of that.
That doesnt diminish what Thriller did for the planet, but.

He had a nose job on OTW. and was Suburban by Thriller.....White Trash by BAD.
shit was a massive hit. dude was already a pop star beyond the realms of disco and R&B. what were the chart positions for the singles?
Wiki:
On July 28, 1979, Off the Wall's first single, "Don't Stop 'til You Get Enough", was released. It peaked atop the Billboard Hot 100 and reached number three in the UK.[32][28] On November 3, 1979 the second single from the album, "Rock with You" was released, again it peaked atop the Billboard Hot 100.[33] In February, the album's title track was released as a single and went to number 10 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and became a top 10 hit in four countries.[34] "She's out of My Life", also reaching number 10 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in June.[35] Thus Off the Wall became the first album by a solo artist to generate four US top 10 hits.[28]
Black Radio played the entire album. Did POP/Rock radio?

Is it just me? I NEVER thought of "Off the Wall" as a "straight disco" album. In fact, I never thought of it as a disco album, period. It just sounded like...a Michael Jackson album.

That's not a flaw!!!
I am with Ed on all things but "The Girl Is Mine", which I can't really hang with.
