I had to inquire about who in his right mind would give this a "1." It was obvious that one reviewer alone, who clearly never liked MJ, gave Thriller a poor rating four times using the term "hype" to clearly identify him/herself. The others who gave Thriller 1s were annoyed with the sound quality of the CD. Fact is, few albums can top this off: Dark Side of the Moon comes to mind, which says a lot about how perfect Thriller is. MJ may be a weirdo, but he sure made history here. I recently heard "The Lady in My Life" on the radio. I completely froze from its beauty.
