Still great.
After Michael Jackson night on Idol, I picked this up. I had forgotten how many great songs are on this album. Dirty Diana and Smooth Criminal are personal favorites.

Good
The more I listen to this album the more I love it. “Liberian Girl” must be one of the most under appreciated songs of the century. There’s so much emotion on it.
