Join Adam Maness and Peter Martin as they dive into Jackson's 1979 masterpiece Off The Wall – the album that planted MJ's flag as a solo artist. We explore how a young Michael partnered with Quincy Jones, created magic with studio legends Louis Johnson and Greg Phillinganes, and transformed Rod Temperton's “I Want to Eat You Up” into a radio-friendly “Rock With You.” Hear rare demos and interviews, isolated stems, and discover why this record still delivers HITS! decades later. Between Quincy's touch, Michael's heart-pouring intensity, and a whole lot of masterful musicians emerged something that united the world in a way few artists ever could.
Music Intro by: Gail NoblesPhoto: Wikimedia Public DomainToday we're diving deep into one of the grooviest grooves to ever hit the charts! You know the name, you know the moves, and you definitely know the magic—I'm talking about none other than Michael Jackson's sensational hit "Rock With You!" Written by the sensational Rod Temperton and brought to life under the legendary production of Quincy Jones, this track hit the airwaves like a bolt of lightning in October 1979—an electric spark that lit the dance floors ablaze! But let me tell you a little secret: this song was originally offered to none other than Karen Carpenter! Can you imagine? But she passed it up, and boy, did we win big when it landed in the hands of the King of Pop.Now, folks, get ready for some numbers—they're as slick as Jackson's dance moves! "Rock With You" rocketed straight to number one on the US pop charts and held that spot for four glorious weeks from January 19 to February 9, 1980. But that's not all—this anthem also sizzled to the top of the R&B charts, spending five weeks at number one! You see, this was the third chart-topping single in the 1980s for our beloved Michael, a decade that would soon be drenched in his unstoppable hits! According to Billboard, "Rock with You" wasn't just any single—it was the fourth biggest hit of 1980!And let's take a moment to recognize its significance in music history: it was one of the closing chapters of the disco era, but oh, what a farewell it was! With its smooth rhythm and velvety production, this track became THE anthem to get lost in the dance under the disco ball lights—you can't help but lose yourself in its magical groove!So, whether you're hitting the dance floor or chilling at home, you can't go wrong with “Rock With You.” It's a slice of musical history, a moment frozen in time, and a reminder of why Michael Jackson is the King. Now slide on those dancing shoes, turn up the volume, and let the rhythm take control! Keep the MJ sound alive.I'm Gail Nobles. Thank you for listening to an all time MJ Podcast about Michael Jackson.

Early singles included George Strait's “You Look So Good in Love” and Jack Wagner's major hit “All I Need,” which Glen also produced. In the mid-1980s he went to work for Quincy Jones, an era when he and Siedah Garrett co-wrote Michael Jackson's triple platinum single “Man in the Mirror.” By the dawn of the 1990s, Glen had begun collaborating with Wilson Phillips, co-writing their chart topping hits “Hold On” and “You're in Love.” He went on to produce and co-write all the songs on Alanis Morissette's debut album, Jagged Little Pill, including “You Oughta Know,” “Hand in My Pocket,” “All I Really Want,” “Ironic,” “You Learn,” and “Head Over Feet.” The project earned the Album of the Year Grammy, and Glen returned to produce and co-write Alannis's sophomore release, Supposed Former Infatuation Junkie, including the hit “Thank U.” Other songs from the Glen Ballard songbook include Aerosmith's “Pink” and “Falling in Love is Hard on the Knees,” as well as the Dave Matthews Band's “I Did It” and “The Space Between.” Glen earned a Golden Globe and Academy Award nomination for Best Original Song for “Believe,” which he co-wrote with Alan Silvestri for the film The Polar Express. He has written and produced songs for Aretha Franklin, Barbra Streisand, Ringo Starr, Van Halen, Chaka Khan, Christina Aguilera, Katy Perry, and many others. In recent years, Glen has found major success in musical theater, including writing original lyrics and music for GHOST the musical, and teaming again with Alan Silvestri to write the score for the musical adaptation of Back to the Future.

If you're looking for great Heartland Rock, a great choice would be the album Against the Wind. Depending on how you count it, it could be considered Bob Seger's eleventh studio album, but it is the third album of the iteration known as Bob Seger & the Silver Bullet Band. Seger is joined by Drew Abbott on guitar, Chris Campbell on bass, and David Teegarden on drums. The band became the Silver Bullet Band a bit by accident. They were arguing about what to call themselves, and the manager got tired of it. When they got paid the manager wrote the name "Bob Seger and the Silver Bullet Band" on the paycheck and the name stuck. Against the Wind was an immediate success. It went to number 2 on the Billboard 200 charts in its third week, and it sat there for 5 weeks, kepts out of the top slot by Pink Floyd's monster hit album, "The Wall." Finally, it topped "The Wall" to take the number 1 slot and remained there for six weeks, making it Bob Seger's most successful album in his career.There are a number of well known hits on this album, and an excellent collection of musicians as well. In addition to the Silver Bullet Band, Seger makes use of session musicians out of Muscle Shoals Sound Studios, and is joined by backing vocals from members of the Eagles as well.Seger retired at the end of 2019, but he performed in 2023 at Patty Loveless's induction in to the Country Music Hall of Fame in Nashville, so we hold out hope that there will be some occasional performances still to come.Bruce presents this folksy heartland singer songwriter for this week's podcast.. Her StrutWhile not released as a single, this song received some airplau as the B-side to "The Horizontal Bop." Seger has been criticized for his adolescent humor in this song, but he claims that the inspiration for it was feminist activist Jane Fonda and her appearance before the Campaign for Economic Democracies.Against the WindBob Seger has written a number of songs about looking back on life, and the title track is an example of this. Seger was a cross country runner in high school, and he uses running as a metaphor for growing old. This song went to number 5 on the Billboard Hot 100, and he is joined by his friend and Eagles alumnus Glenn Frey for backing vocals.Fire LakeThis track is about taking risks, risking love, and just heading off with a bunch of wild people. Seger recorded this one at Muscle Shoals Sound Studios. If the backing vocals sounds a lot like the Eagles, there is a reason for it - those backing vocalists are Glenn Frey, Don Henley, and Timothy B. Schmit. You'll Accomp'ny MeThis ballad is a little more country, with lyrics that basically say, "look, you may be playing the field now, but we both know in the end we'll be together." Little Feat co-founder Bill Payne joins Seger on this track to provide organ, synth, and piano parts. It hit number 14 on the Billboard Hot 100. ENTERTAINMENT TRACK:Sleepless Nights by Gram Parsons (from the motion picture "Cruising")Al Pacino starred in this crime thriller about a serial killer targeting gay men. STAFF PICKS:I Like to Rock by April WineWayne rocks out to start the staff picks with this Canadian band. April Wine formed in 1969, and have released over 20 albums. This song may be time stamped in the early 80's but it rocks out, and you can't beat lyrics like, "journey to the stars, Rock N Roll guitars!" Take the Long Way Home by SupertrampRob brings us one of the hits off Supertramp's multi-platinum album, "Breakfast in America." The lyrics to this one depict a couple growing apart as the husband starts staying away from home due to feeling like he's being ignored. It can also be a reflection of missed opportunities to live in alignment with your heart, and not being at peace with yourself.Rock With You by Michael JacksonLynch features a hit from MJ's disco album, "Off the Wall." Original lyrics were a bit more suggestive, but these were toned down to fit Jackson's wholesome image at the time. Rod Temperton wrote "Rock with You" as his first song for Jackson, setting the stage for more collaborations, including the iconic "Thriller." I Wanna Be Your Lover by PrinceBruce's staff pick is the lead single from Prince's self-titled second album, and his first major hit, reaching number 11 on the Billboard Hot 100 in January 1980. Prince performs lead and backing vocals, and plays all instruments on this hit. The end of the track includes an extended instrumental jam which is edited out for the single. INSTRUMENTAL TRACK:Give It All You Got by Chuck Mangioni Flugelhorn player Mangioni wrote this song for the 1980 Winter Olympics in Lake Placid, New York.

We've made a few jokes in past episodes about Michael McDonald popping up in unexpected places. It's an easy joke to make, because McDonald has a distinctive voice and has worked with a lot of artists covering numerous genres. But the man is talented - both vocally and on the keyboards - and his career has put him at the forefront of rock music for a long time.Sweet Freedom is a compilation album that explores McDonald's work from his first two albums plus a number of collaborations. The album title is taken from the track he had recently completed for the motion picture soundtrack “Running Scared,” a buddy cop comedy starring Billy Crystal and Gregory Hines.After a troubled youth, McDonald began his music career in earnest as a vocalist and keyboardist for Steely Dan. After that he was tapped as keyboardist and vocalist for The Doobie Brothers, a position which would eventually lead to his fronting the band and turning it in a more soulful direction. In 1982 he started a solo career which would combine a soft rock style with his signature “blue eyed soul” sensibilities.Lynch is examining this “greatest hits” album with an eye towards some of the collaborations that have involved Michael McDonald, many of which are signature anthems and ballads of the early 80's soulful catalog that will eventually become known as yacht rock.We hope you enjoy this weeks podcast! Sweet FreedomRod Temperton, known for his work with Michael Jackson and Quincy Jones, composed this single. It is a bit of a departure from McDonald's typical style with its upbeat melody and horns. It went to number 7 on the Billboard Hot 100, and of course became the title track for this compilation album.Yah Mo B ThereThis song is a collaboration with the late James Ingram which peaked at number 19 on the Billboard Hot 100. Co-written and produced by Quincy Jones and Rod Temperton, the song was originally a more contemporary Christian song with the title "Yahweh Be There." Ingram suggested the title change, opening up the lyrics to more ambiguity to fit a wider audience.On My OwnA number 1 song from the Billboard charts in the US, this track finds McDonald paired with Patti LaBelle on a breakup duet. Interestingly, the two recorded their tracks completely separately, and did not actually meet until they performed the song together on The Tonight Show in 1986.I Keep Forgettin' (Every Time You're Near)This song peaked at number 4, and was McDonald's first success as a solo artist. It was a cover originally sung by Chuck Jackson in 1962. McDonald's version features his sister Maureen providing backup vocals, adding familial harmony to the mix. ENTERTAINMENT TRACK:Main theme to the television game show “Card Sharks”This game show originally ran on NBC from 1978 to 1981, and returned for a second iteration to CBS in 1986. STAFF PICKS:Too Late by AsiaRob leads off the staff picks this week with a track from Asia's third album, “Astra.” John Wetton returned to the group after a brief separation in late 1983 when he was replaced by Greg Lake for tour dates. Steve Howe is replaced by Mandy Meyer for this third Asia album.Goodbye by Night RangerBruce brings us the last top 40 hit (to date) by Night Ranger. Drummer Kelly Keagy takes lead vocals on this Brian Blades-composed power ballad written after losing his brother to a drug overdose. “It's hard living life on this memory go-round.”Walk Like An Egyptian by The BanglesWayne's staff pick is the best known song by the group. Songwriter Liam Sternberg took inspiration for this song from a rough trip across the English Channel, when his fellow passengers were walking carefully with their arms outstretched due to the choppy waters. It would become a number 1 single, and Billboard's number 1 song in 1987.These Dreams by HeartLynch closes out the staff picks with as song that emerged from a collaboration between Bernie Taupin and Martin Page. Taupin originally envisioned it as a song for Stevie Nicks, but after she turned it down, the song was restructured for Ann and Nancy Wilson of Heart. Nancy Wilson takes lead on this song dedicated to her friend Sharon Hess, who had lost her battle with leukemia. INSTRUMENTAL TRACK:Shade Gate by HawkwindThis instrumental appears on Hawkwind's fourteeneth studio album, which was inspired by the works of fantasy novelist Michael Moorcock.

Herbert Jeffrey Hancock , 12 avril 1940, Chicago, Illinois, États-Unis Herbie Hancock est un excellent pianiste de jazz, chef d'orchestre et compositeur. Herbie est né à Chicago, Illinois. Il a fréquenté le Wendell Phillips High School à East Pershing Rd à Chicago, commençant initialement par une éducation musicale classique. Montrant des promesses remarquables dans son enfance, Herbie a été influencé par le groupe vocal Hi-Lo's. En 1960, il devient l'élève de l'artiste Chris Anderson, puis commence à travailler avec Donald Byrd et Coleman Hawkins. Herbie a également fréquenté l'Université Roosevelt de Chicago. Au fur et à mesure que sa réputation vieillissait, Herbie a commencé à collaborer avec Oliver Nelson et Phil Woods. En 1962, il avait signé avec Blue Note Records pour sortir son premier album 'Takin' Off''. L'album a attiré l'attention de Miles Davis sur Herbie, qui cherchait alors un claviériste. Il rejoint ensuite le Miles Davis Quintet en 1963, avec lequel il restera cinq ans, tout en continuant à sortir son matériel solo pour Blue Note Records. Son matériel solo pour Blue Note a continué jusqu'en 1969, avec les albums 'My Point Of View' (en 1963), 'Inventions and Dimensions' (en 1964), 'Empyrean Isles' (en 1964), 'Maiden Voyage' (en 1965), 'Speak Like A Child' (en 1968) et 'The Prisoner' (en 1969). Herbie a également joué sur plusieurs sessions d'enregistrement sur la côte Est pour le producteur Creed Taylor, qui comprenait la bande originale de "Blow Up", qui est devenue le premier de nombreux projets de bande originale de film. Herbie a quitté le Miles Davis Quintet en 1968. Il a sorti l'album 'Fat Albert Rotunda' un an plus tard pour l'empreinte Warner Bros. En 1970, Herbie étudiait le bouddhisme, ce qui l'a vu changer brièvement de nom pour son matériel enregistré, comme pour l'album "Mwandishi" en 1971. Mwandishi étant un nom swahili qu'il utilisait parfois ("Mwandishi" est le swahili pour "écrivain"). 1972, voit la sortie de 'Crossings', suivi de 'Sextant' un an plus tard (la première sortie après un changement de label chez Columbia Records). En 1973, Herbie sort l'album "Head Hunters", qui montre une émergence musicale vers un style plus funk/fusion. L'album comportait le morceau extrêmement populaire 'Chameleon'. Herbie commençait à maîtriser le synthétiseur et à développer son son, mis en valeur par une série d'excellents albums, dont 'Thrust' (en 1974), 'Death Wish' (en 1974), 'Flood' (en 1975), 'Man-Child ' (en 1975), 'Secrets' (en 1976) et 'VSOP' (en 1977). À cette époque, Herbie était un musicien de session vedette du tour de force de Stevie Wonder en 1976 "Songs In The Key Of Life" et fut plus tard le producteur du projet "8 for The Eighties" de Webster Lewis. En 1978, Herbie a sorti l'un de ses albums de fusion les plus commerciaux (et les plus réussis) dans l'album "Sunlight". L'album comportait l'hymne du club "I Thought It Was You", où Herbie utilisait son synthétiseur pour corriger toute "anomalie" dans sa propre prestation vocale. "Feets Don't Fail Me Now" de 1979 a continué le format, embellissant le son avec un format disco, présenté dans le single "You Bet Your Love". La même année, Herbie a demandé l'aide de Webster Lewis, Alphonse Mouzon, Bennie Maupin, Bill Summers et Ray Obiedo, pour un album enregistré "direct sur vinyle" au Japon, intitulé "Directstep" (qui présentait une face complète de l'enregistrement de l'album de "Je pensais que c'était toi". L'album 'Monster' des années 1980 présentait certains des enregistrements les plus émouvants d'Herbie, notamment 'Making Love', 'Stars In Your Eyes' et 'Saturday Night'. Il a immédiatement suivi l'album avec un disque plus fusionnel intitulé "Mr Hands" (avec "Just Around The Corner"). 'Magic Windows' de 1981 était une sortie beaucoup plus émouvante, qui a été suivie par 'Lite Me Up', une collaboration avec Rod Temperton du groupe Heatwave. L'album comprenait les populaires « Getting To The Good Part », « Motor Mouth » et « The Bomb ». L'album de 1983 "Future Shock" présentait le single à succès "Rockit" (souvent considéré comme la première chanson jazz hip-hop), qui présentait un son plus électronique que ses sorties précédentes. En 1984, "Sound System" présentait le morceau de fusion "Karabali", qui avait été diffusé à la radio à l'époque. En 1986, il enregistre l'album de la bande originale du film de Dexter Gordon "Round Midnight", pour lequel il remporte un Oscar de la musique originale. Après avoir sorti "Perfect Machine" en 1988, Herbie a quitté l'empreinte de Columbia après 15 ans. Il a signé par intermittence sur plusieurs labels, dont Qwest, qui a vu la sortie de l'album "A Tribute To Miles" en 1994. Cette année-là, il signe chez PolyGram Records, ce qui lui permet de sortir des disques de jazz pour Verve/Mercury Records. L'album de 1994, "Dis Is da Drum", présentait l'interprète dans un format jazz plus acide. Cette année-là, Herbie est apparu sur l'album de compilation de sensibilisation au sida de l'organisation Red Hot 'Stolen Moments: Red Hot + Cool'. En 1998, Herbie a sorti l'album «Gershwin's World», qui présentait des interprétations des standards de George et Ira Gershwin par Herbie, ainsi que Stevie Wonder, Joni Mitchell et Wayne Shorter. Il a sorti "Future2Future" en 2001, avec lequel Herbie a collaboré avec Bill Laswell et Rob Swift de The X-Ecutioners. Le trio a tourné pour soutenir l'album, se poursuivant jusqu'en 2005. En 2005, Herbie sort un album en duo intitulé "Possibilités". Les artistes en vedette comprenaient Carlos Santana, Paul Simon, Annie Lennox, John Mayer, Christina Aguilera et Sting. En 2006, Sony BMG Music Entertainment a récupéré les droits du catalogue Columbia de Herbie en publiant "The Essential Herbie Hancock". En 2007, Herbie a sorti l'album «River: The Joni Letters», son propre hommage à Joni Mitchell, le chanteur et auteur-compositeur. L'album comportait des contributions de Norah Jones, Tina Turner et Corinne Bailey Rae. "River" a remporté le Grammy Award de l'album de l'année 2008. En 2010, Herbie a sorti "The Imagine Project" et en 2013 a reçu le Kennedy Center Honors Award pour ses réalisations dans les arts de la scène. Différente de la carrière «motivée» de Miles Davis, la musique de Herbie a emmené l'artiste dans un voyage plus long, oscillant entre presque tous les développements du jazz électronique / acoustique et du R&B au cours du dernier tiers du 20e siècle.

Today's topic is Michael Jackson and The ET Extra - Terrestrial Album. A book is also included in the album. You can listen and read along. It was for the 1982 blockbuster film of the same name directed by Steven Spielberg. Composed by John Williams, and the album was narrated by Michael Jackson, produced by composer Quincy Jones and distributed by MCA Records. Where I'm from, not many people have heard of the E.T. Album. I'm not sure if that many were sold at the time. I was lucky to see and buy the album. My favorite part of the album was hearing MJ sing, Someone In The Dark. At the time in the 80's, not many people I know heard the song. I'll sing a few lines. (Singing)I use to listen to Michael Jackson and sing along with him singing the song, Someone In the Dark. I could sing better in the past. I was a lot younger then, and was practicing more. Michael's voice sounded so angelic to me in singing a song. He had a sweet sounding voice. (Singing) He had a way of singing his words and expressing himself. When I heard Michael singing, Someone In The Dark, I was touched and felt some loneliness in my life just like he did. I think we all do sometimes. The song was written by Alan Bergman and Marilyn Bergman and was composed by Rod Temperton.I'm Gail Nobles. You're listening to Sound Flave (Radiae Applis).

trigger warning: this film deals with sexual assault, incest, domestic violence, child abuse. Spoiler Alert. DOUBLE OH SEVEN EPISODE. The lucky episode #7 featuring my favorite guest, Miles Lark (@mileslarkartglass) deals with a pivotal period film, 1985's "The Color Purple". This lesser-known Spielberg classic stars then-unknown LEGENDS Whoopi Goldberg & Oprah Winfrey as they adapt author Alice Walker's magnum opus into harrowing performances you'll never forget. Accompanied by a soundtrack composed by Quincy Jones and Michael Jackson's lyricist, Rod Temperton (the guy literally wrote 'THRILLER'), "The Color Purple" is a celebration of the human experience that is marred by brutality and tragedy, but ends up being triumphant and glorious. A true tear-jerker, please join us as we cover this beautiful cinematic gem. This is FULL METAL RATCHET hosted by TikToker and content creator, Aja (@fullmetalratchet), who loves to dive into deep discussions of film as it pertains to life, love, relationships, and more.
