Description

Every song of the LP excluding "The Lady In My Life" either charted in the Top 100 or was issued as an A-side or B-side on 45 singles. Released on November 30, 1982 as the follow-up to Jackson's 1979 critically and highly commercially successful "Off the Wall" LP. "Thriller" explores similar genres to those that were heard on "Off the Wall" but redefines current pop music, R&B, Rock, Post-Disco, Funk, and even Adult Contemporary Music. It currently remains to be the largest grossing LP and heralding with the most copies ever sold of one LP worldwide, with sales over 65 million copies worldwide according to various sources. 

Recording sessions took place between April and November 1982 at Westlake Recording Studios in Los Angeles, California, with a production budget of $750,000, assisted by producer Quincy Jones.
