The interesting part of this will be the reaction of radio and streaming services to this news and whether or not they will play or make available his music. And furthermore, whether people will want to listen to it.
Looking forward to this moral debate.
I was in Tower Records in Dublin yesterday and they were playing Billie Jean which I thought was interesting given he was so in the news and the conversation your refer to above was happening.
Then being the sharp eared muso I am sure didn't I notice that it was not MJ but a cover version.
I expect / suspect they were being ironic in the way that record shop staff can be.
Well this is what I was touching on the other day. I'm really not sure how you tell the story of popular music in the 70s and 80s without mentioning Michael Jackson or playing his music.
Erasing Glitter and Savile from history's easy - they're nobodies. Michael Jackson, on the other hand...
