This was the one that Established Michael as a pop icon. It ruled the charts 79-80 with great R&B tunes. Hard to imagine there was a time many of us thought, "Thriller"? Ok but it ain't going to beat "Off the Wall"!

OtW has always been my favorite MJ album. I just like the energy and verve he had as a younger artist. Thriller plays like a greatest hits collection but always felt a little hyper produced for my taste. Also Michael became too obsessed with his own image beginning with Thriller. With Off the Wall he still looks like a kid having fun, and then when I liked him best.

From paladisiac 12/09/2011 15:12
This, thriller and bad play like greatest hits packages each unto themselves. off the wall takes the cool grooviness of disco and adds enough r&b funkiness to keep the disco not only from being dated and annoying, but makes the disco element feel fun and a lively element of jackson's r&b dance album. Check out the bass on the title track or on "burn this disco out" -- FUNK-E. i like the attitude-bridge-breakdown on "get on the floor". Of course, there are the true radio hits of "don't stop 'til you get enough", "rock with you" and "she's out of my life", but any one of these songs could've been hits. Very good album.

This is my favourite Michael Jackson album as it is the one that established him as a solo artist. It is also the start of the collaboration with Quincy Jones (who I personally think is thank for making Michael Jackson the huge star he was). Favourite tracks are 'Off the Wall' and 'Rock with You'

A pleasant enough album with nice, catchy tunes. Not enough stand out material perhaps, though Don't Stop Till You Get Enough and She's Out of My Life are both excellent songs.
