DoYouRemember?

In the fall of 1982, King of Pop Michael Jackson released his sixth studio album, Thriller. 40 years later, Thriller is still one of the most enduring albums, shattering records that remain unbeaten to this day. It is also this autumn that fans can revisit the album with a whole slew of surprises for this monumental anniversary. There are a few ways the album's anniversary will be celebrated, but perhaps the most anticipated is the double-CD set that will include the original Thriller and a bonus CD full of entirely new tracks that went unreleased in the original collection that Jackson worked on for the album. Here's what you can look forward to this November.

Following its release, the album rocketed to the top and beyond, to limits rarely seen by others. It boasts seven major singles that made it to the top 10 of the Billboard Hot 100 chart. These include the titular "Thriller" as well as "Beat It," "Billie Jean," and "Human Nature." It has some 50 million sales, making it the best-selling album of all time, displacing AC/DC's Back in Black from just two years prior with a roughly 30 million sales difference. Thriller 40 offers the original album with all its hits and new surprises Something of such significance of course had an impact on society, culture, and the industry. It helped blur racial barriers, granted Jackson an audience with President Reagan, and established the trend of using music videos for promotions. It's no wonder the 34-time platinum-certified album remains preserved in the National Recording Registry by the Library of Congress, an honor bestowed only to culturally significant recordings.
