Off the Wall

Michael Jackson

“the ballads were what made Off the Wall a Michael Jackson album,” Jackson said of his big solo splash, which spun off four Top 10 hits and eclipsed the Jackson 5. At the end of “She’s Out of My Life,” you can actually hear Jackson break down and cry in the studio. But dance tracks like “Don’t Stop ’Til You Get Enough” and “Rock With You” remain classic examples of Jackson as a one-man disco inferno.
