Convincing release of a timeless classic

In the last 25 years there has already been a ton of releases of this album. The most recently published in 2001 and remastered special edition of the album was waiting with a nice slipcase on (at least for the first edition) and was next to some interviews, 2 previously unreleased bonus tracks titled "Streetwalker" and "Fly Away". (These are also this time there again)
11 years later, the 25th Jubilee of the Bad album, Sony released a collector's neat that has earned its name.

When you open the black, very noble acting on the material her "chest", which is kept stable closed by a magnet to the inclined Fan reveal some real treasures.
Starting with the 2 very chic designed booklets on the double recordings both also separately published (The Bad album incl. Unreleased track and the Wembley concert with CD and DVD) can be found also a double-sided poster and a sticker depicting what the cover of the current album ,

As is well known to be lost to the album itself is not many words. Even people who have the eighties witnessed not active, will be able to start with 50% of the songs and some wisssen to appreciate their cult status soon.
The Album (second) digital revision can really hear. Anyone who thinks that the sound quality from the 2001 SE nothing is rauszuholen, here you are wrong. Even if the improvements are minimal and probably only long-time fans who know every word sung and every note played by heart, really stand out, they are there!

The CD with previously unreleased songs (plus 2 remixes hardly to be mentioned) forms for me personally a big highlight. These have arisen for periods of Bad era and landed not from the one reason or another on the final album.
As example would be the among fans already selected for the most favorite song "Al Capone" has what significant features of "Smooth Criminal" and is available as a basic building block for that song.
Whoever listens to him but soon notice that "Al Capone" does not need to hide in the shadow of "Smooth Criminal" but clearly has its own raison d'etre!
Furthermore convince me songs like "I'm So Blue" or "Song Groove". But I recommend that each form their own opinion and a listen at your leisure in the "new old" songs.

After many years and a number of petitions Sony has at last managed to publish it now an official release of a concert of the Bad Tour. As a "master" was a private VHS tape of Michael, which caught the concert at Wembley Stadium on July 16, 1988.
Considering the origin and years of storage to probably less than optimal conditions, as well as the fact that the concert was not recorded among the highest technical standards of that time one (I suspect it was never intended for public publication), the concert can yet impressive. Especially on clay was screwed, whereby the image quality (which is not so bad really) is to forgive.

All in all, I regret buying not at all. For comparably priced 35 you get here is a package in which the timeless genius album "Bad" is in unheard clarity, and really nice and interesting unreleased tracks and to top it all yet to crown, the long-awaited by fans and long-awaited Bad concert from Wembley Stadium, both on audio CD for your car, as well as for the domestic DVD player.
