Will You Be My Friend? Book CoverWill You Be My Friend? By Michael Jacobshagen (Book)
Released: 21-08-2013

As a child Michael Jacobshagen spent time on the move with Michael Jackson. He met Michael Jackson the first time 1995 in Paris, the beginning of a friendship that stretched over years. They visited the famous Circus Krone in Munich, stayed 1998 two weeks in that city, went shopping and spent private time together in hotel suites and elsewhere. When Michael Jackson roamed Europe on his legendary 1997 History Tour, he invited the 13 year old Michael Jacobshagen time and again to various cities his concerts took place in. Now, 16 years later, Michael Jacobshagen lets other fans participate and talks for the first time in detail about his marvelous experiences with Michael Jackson in a profoundly open and personal manner. Among the stories: how they became friends in Munich, played hide and seek, threw water balloons to the fans outside and went on shopping tours.

Drawbacks:
The book is short, and although there are a few new photos, they are of terrible quality. In the last chapters he talks about Michael's last years which he didn't personally witness, and even speculates about the murder conspiracy a little bit. I would have preferred if he had written more about the Michael he knew instead. The grammar could benefit from an English-speaking editor. But even with all that, I think it's a nice tribute from a friend.

Rockabye Baby CD Album CoverMichael Jackson Songs Set To Rock Little Ones To Sleep (CD Album)
Released: 13-08-2013

The king of pop has had his hits reworked as lullabies for babies.

DON'T STOP til you get to sleep. That's the thinking behind a new album that features Michael Jackson hits in a lullaby style.

Rock With You, ABC and Don’t Stop ‘Til You Get Enough are amongst the hits on the latest album from Rockabye Baby - a US company that transforms pop songs into instrumental, baby-friendly tunes.

The company released a Jay-Z lullaby album earlier this month and other artists to have their hits reworked by the label include Kanye West and Bob Marley.

The Jackson lullaby album is set for release on August 13 - just over two weeks ahead of what would have been the late superstar's 55th birthday on August 29. And in addition to the songs, the album also features a MJ-themed kids' games for liner notes and a recipe for Mango In the Mirror baby food.

Other hits to make the album include The Way You Make Me Feel, Beat It and Thriller.

A Life For L.O.V.E. Book CoverA Life For L.O.V.E. (Book)
Released: 08-08-2013

A new book “A Life For L.O.V.E,” has been published by the compilers of “It’s All about L.O.V.E.” It contains stories about Michael you maybe have heard before.

Out in time for Michael´s 55th birthday anniversary, we are very happy and excited to let you all know about our new book “A life for L.O.V.E.” that is OUT NOW.

Some of you may have read our first book “It’s all about L.O.V.E.”, which portrayed the unique relationship between Michael and his fans through true stories by fans from all over the world.

For the last two years we have been working on our second project which is a first time ever collection of stories focusing on Michael’s humanitarian efforts.

As you all know, the whole world celebrates Michael’s musical legacy and his groundbreaking achievements in the entertainment industry, yet little is publicly known about the fact that he also broke records with his charitable accomplishments and that he used his tremendous popularity, influence and amazing success to call attention to social and political problems.

We wanted to help to change that.

“A life for L.O.V.E.” is the first book that concentrates on this important aspect of Michael’s life! On over 450 pages, this beautiful potpourri of true stories shows a vivid picture and personal portrait of a man whose declared goal it was to HEAL THE WORLD and start with the MAN IN THE MIRROR. Contributors from all over the world, including Howard McCrary, Seth Riggs, David Nordahl, John Isaac, Dieter Wiesner, Mike LaPerruque, Dr. Patrick Treacy, Teddy Lakis, former Neverland employees and many more who knew Michael, were his friends, worked for him, received his help and encouragement or got inspired by him, wrote down their personal memories and experiences with Michael.

Michael inspired millions through his message, but mostly his dear fans. Therefore the book also introduces some selected fan charity projects that continue Michael’s message and wish for a better world.

We hope many people get inspired by reading about Michael’s untiring fight against indifference and will find a way to do their share to help make this world a better place, too.

Joining the line of those keeping Michael’s message alive, ALL proceeds from this book are being donated to the “Make-A-Wish” foundation again – just as we did with our last book “It’s all about L.O.V.E”, which already collected over 6,500€ for charity. Therewith we would like to dedicate this book to Michael as our birthday gift for him.

We hope you are looking forward to hold the book in your hands now and read it, or give it as a gift to someone else – SPREAD the word – SPREAD Michael´s message of L.O.V.E.!

Or you can order it in various online stores (just don´t forget to type in the dots in L.O.V.E. to find it).

The Indispensable Collection And The Ultimate Fan Extras Collection Via iTunes.
Released: 21/24-06-2013

I can exclusively reveal that Sony Music will release two new Michael Jackson collections in what’s being referred to as the “Michael Jackson Global iTunes Campaign”.

Although a few days late, the campaign – which goes live around the world on June 28, 2013 – is intended to commemorate the 4th anniversary of Jackson’s passing.

The Indispensable Collection CoverThe first set of the campaign, called 'The Indispensable Collection', is a comprehensive package showcasing all six of Michael Jackson’s adult solo albums with CBS/Sony; from 1979's 'Off The Wall' to 2001's 'Invincible'; and for the first time ever in a box set or re-issue, disc two of Jackson’s 1995 'HIStory' album.

Also included in 'The Indispensable Collection' will be the recently released live album sampled from Jackson’s legendary 1988 Bad Tour performance at Wembley Stadium, and 1997's 'Blood On The Dance Floor/HIStory In The Mix'.

Update: The second set is called 'The Ultimate Fan Extras Collection' – consisting of 162 tracks including alternate mixes, remixes, live versions, instrumentals, megamixes and demos and non-album tracks – mostly found on previously released collections such as 'Bad 25', 'Immortal' and 'The Ultimate Collection'.

Unfortunately, the reception of 'The Ultimate Fan Extras Collection' will likely be tainted within fan circles due to the inclusion The Ultimate Fan Extras Collection Coverof the three controversial Cascio tracks, which are widely regarded by many around the world, including Jackson’s own family, as fraudulent pieces featuring the vocals of a Michael Jackson imitator.

The two collections, as seen below, will be sold exclusively via iTunes. They are not expected to be released in physical retail form.

Off The Wall
Thriller
Bad
Dangerous
HIStory-Past, Present and Future Book 1 (disc two)

Bad 25 DVD CoverBad 25 DVD/Blue Ray Finally Available To Pre-Order At MJ.com!
Released: 30-05-2013

Twenty-five years after Michael Jackson’s visionary Bad album and tour left an indelible mark on pop culture, BAD25 takes you back inside the recording sessions, film shoots and sold-out stadiums for an intimate look at the King of Pop’s creative genius.

Poignant and candid, Spike Lee directed a documentary that goes beyond paying homage to the record-setting album featuring such iconic songs as “Bad” and “Man In the Mirror.” Using never-seen footage and candid interviews with subjects ranging from Martin Scorsese to Kanye West, Lee chronicles what became not only a watershed moment in Michael Jackson’s growth as an artist but in popular music as well.

The New York Times called BAD25 “filled with oh-wow moments,” while Time lauded the film as “an intimate view of a performer at his peak in the intense splendor of creativity.”

Jackson 5 Animated Series DVD CoverJackson 5 Animated Series (DVD And Blu-ray)
Released: 15-01-2013

Are you ready to get your dancing machine on? If you’re a fan of the Jackson 5 it looks like you can relive their cartoon glory again. It’s been announced that the 1971 Saturday morning cartoon featuring the fictionalised accounts of young Michael Jackson’s time with his brothers is coming to DVD and Blu-Ray.

Titled The Jackson 5ive, the series went on to show wacky Scooby-Doo like hi-jinks and colorful musical montages complete with 70s emblematic bell bottoms and flower powers. The series ran from 1971 to 1973 and was syndicated in the 80s when Michael Jackson’s career hit an all-time high during his solo career.

In the late 80s, the younger Jackson wrote in his 1988 autobiography about the show, “It was so much fun to get up on Saturday mornings to watch cartoons and look forward to seeing ourselves on the screen. It was like a fantasy come true for all of us.”

Now that it’s a full 41 years later after its original release, the production company, Classic Media, is releasing the series The Jackson 5ive: The Complete Series on DVD and Blu-Ray with a release date of January 15, 2013. Sounds like a great post holiday gift for any MJ fan.

The DVD set will include 23 episodes in full and the retail price is said to be $32.99 dollars. For the Blu-ray version you’ll have to shell out a little extra as the price is slated at $39.00 dollars.

Currently there’s no other additional details about the DVD set but hopefully you can look forward to some great bonus features or at least some commentary tracks.
