Description

Thriller is the sixth studio album by the American recording artist Michael Jackson. It was released on November 30, 1982, by Epic Records, as the follow-up to Jackson's critically and commercially successful 1979 album Off the Wall. Thriller explores similar genres to those of Off the Wall, including pop, R&B, rock, post-disco, funk, and adult contemporary music.

In just over a year, Thriller became—and currently remains—the best-selling album of all time, with sales over 110 million copies worldwide according to various sources. The album won a record-breaking eight Grammy Awards in 1984, including for Album of the Year. Thriller was ranked number 20 on Rolling Stone magazine's 500 Greatest Albums of All Time list in 2003.

GRADING KEY

Near Mint

·      Vinyl -  Shows no obvious signs of wear. Looks and sounds new but has been played.

·      Sleeve -  Has no creases, folds, cuts, seam splits or other similar defects. Looks as if you just removed the shrink wrap.

Excellent

·      Vinyl - May have faint scuffs on the surface only. No noise from scuffs will be heard unless from the pressing itself.

·      Sleeve -  Any wear would be considered normal for its age. May show minimal signs of ring wear or wear on edges and corners.

Very Good Plus

·      Vinyl – Surface may show some slight signs of wear or have slight scuffs or very light scratches that do not affect the listening experience. Besides light normal background noise, the record should have no loud pops nor skips.

·      Sleeve -  May have noticeable signs of ring wear  and wear on spine, edges and corners.

Very Good

·      Vinyl - The typical defects found on a VG+ record will be more pronounced. Surface noise may be evident upon playing, but will not overpower the music.

·      Sleeve - May be marred by writing, small tears, wrinkles, or by a cut-out hole, indentation or corner indicating it was taken out of print and sold at a discount.
