MJ Immortal Album Due

IMMORTAL MJ: Immortal, the musical soundtrack for Cirque du Soleil’s Michael Jackson The Immortal World Tour, which kicked off last night in Montreal and includes an extended stay in Las Vegas in Dec., will be released Nov. 21 on Epic Records. Immortal redesigns and re-imagines more than 40 of Jackson’s greatest original recordings in a compilation that allows listeners to experience his music in an entirely new way. Creator Kevin Antunes spent a year in the studio working with Michael’s original multi-track master recordings to create this new soundscape. The show, written and directed by leading pop music concert director Jamie King, combines Jackson’s music, choreography and Cirque du Soleil’s spectacular staging much like Love did for The Beatles. The album comes in a deluxe 22-track edition and a 15-track single CD version, including mash-ups and newly discovered outtakes of Jackson 5’s “ABC” and a choir Michael recorded for “They Don’t Really Care About Us.” For more info, go to www.MichaelJackson.com.
