About This Book
From the 1988 edition:
Megastar Michael Jackson’s singularly brilliant career and intensely
private lifestyle have become a magnificent obsession for millions of
rock fans and celebrity watchers throughout the world. His
double-platinum singles rocket to the top of the music charts with a
velocity equaled only by the inevitable accompaniment of wild rumors
about his eccentric personal life. Now for the first time, Michael
Jackson breaks the fiercely guarded barrier of silence that has
surrounded him in a remarkably candid and courageous book — Moonwalk.
In this intimate and often moving personal account of Michael Jackson’s
public and private life, he recalls a childhood that was both harsh and
joyful but always formidable. Michael and his brothers played amateur
music shows and seamy Chicago strip joints until Motown’s corporate
image makers turned the Jackson 5 into worldwide superstars. Michael
Jackson and the Jackson 5 have combined sales of over 200 million
albums. He talks about the happy prankster days of his youth, traveling
with his brothers, and of his sometimes difficult relationships with his
family over the years. He speaks candidly about the inspiration behind
his music, his mesmerizing dance moves, and the compulsive drive to
create that has made him one of the biggest stars in the music business
and a legend in his own time. The Guinness Book of World Records lists
Thriller as the biggest-selling-album of all time.
In Moonwalk, Michael Jackson shares his personal feelings about some of
his most public friends…friends like Diana Ross, Berry Gordy, Quincy
Jones, Paul McCartney, Fred Astaire, Marlon Brando, and Katharine
Hepburn. He talks openly about the crushing isolation of his fame, of
his first love, of his plastic surgery, and of his wholly exceptional
career and the often bizarre and unfair rumors that have surrounded it.
Illustrated with rare photographs from Jackson family albums and
Michael’s personal photographic archives, as well as a drawing done by
Michael exclusively for this book, Moonwalk is a memorable journey to
the very heart and soul of a modern musical genius.
