Eddie Van Halen played the guitar solo on Beat It but do you know who played all the other guitar parts?

Comments for this News article

Does this book benefit his kids or others?
If not his kids, I think we shouldn't buy it and let them make money by his death.
Sad !!

I purchased the MJ Opus in September but STILL Have NOT Yet received it!

It is 3 WEEKS overdue!!

I have sent Kraken 13 email requests for info and NO response from Andy or Kraken regarding the status!

Outrageous!

At this point I don't even want the Dang MJ Opus!!

At this rate I'll see all the pictures and content of the MJ Opus online before I even receive a response from Kraken!!

Kraken, Jeff Wald, Andy... they should all be ASHAMED of themselves for such poor customer service skills!!

This was a great idea with the This Is It photos, and it is again for the Opus. Thanks for this. I'm still waiting for my copy to reach me here in Australia!

TWO MASTERS ON THE SAME STAGE!!!
What more can we say?

All MJ FANS - can we please help these poor people. Nothing is too little, they need everything!
Just give to the charity of your choice... PLEASE!!!!!

What a great idea posting a new picture each day of Opus. I decided to view this everyday and by the time I FINALLY do receive my copy of Opus, I probably wil have view ed it all on this website. I am getting no where trying to even get a tracking # from ticketmaster. I was given Opus as a surprise Christmas gift and I actually became so overwhelmed with emotion that I broke down and cried. I am hoping somehow I get good news soon. Understand so many others that ordered it through Ticketmaster is also experiencing problems. The world really loved Michael and misses him so much. The Opus will be the greatest memory of him forever!

I am so glad the pictures are being shared. After each passing day I find out more how incredible Michael Jackson's journey was to become the great entertainer that he was. Michael worked very hard to get to the level of performing he was at. I don't think people realized that. I am really enjoying watching the A and E Jackson Dynasty show. Getting to know the brothers again has been great.

Did any of you buy the Jackson 5 I Want You Back! Unreleased Masters album? It came out on Nov. 10 2009. I really like it. It has a different feel to it. Michael's Never Can Say Goodbye alternate version I really love. Buttercup sounds good too. There's also a medley: I Want You Back/ ABC/ The Love You Save. Love the whole album overall. Amazon sells the album, some of you might want to check it out.

This is great. I want one so bad but can't afford it yet so at least us who can't get it yet can see it here.

Thank you

oh my god this is so beautifull, i couldn't buy it yet and i'm so sad about it.
this opus is everything that i wanted to have, i think , we all want.
this is just wonderfull.

MJ FOREVER

It is a very good thought to show MJ's work through his collaboration with emminent personalities. To be honest, I was afraid of this website getting nothing else than a commercial store lately...Any other ideas to project MJ's genius art? I hope this website becomes a celebration of his life. L.O.V.E

I love this picture..a legend with a legend (but Michael's bigger and better). I wish i wouldve lived to see the "Victory" tour...

This is a great picture Smiling I wish I could get the opus, but I will tune in to this site for opus pictures

To Irenelovesmichael,
I agree with you totally. Haiti needs our help and Michael would have been the first to reach out to them.
Lets all help in any way we can. This country is in a desperate situation. They have nothing and need everything and anything. Please lets all help!!!!!!
Michael would have jumped right in. Lets do this in his name!!!!
Love you all and love Michael most!!!!

Love this pic. Just wanted to let you know a bit of trivia. And this is from MJ's book "Moonwalk". He actually had two real gangs come in from Booklyn to do this video. He said he had such a great time hanging out with them and they all had such respect for each other. Michael always did things for total effect!. He was a genius!!

Michael seemed to have such a wide variety of respect for other artists.

What a great man!

this really works for me because i can't afford the book (because of my budget) so now i can see it here!!!!!! : )

Thanks for the picture of the day. I would like to see what I'm getting before spending that much. The pictures I've seen so far are awesome.

This is NOT it !!!
Wake up , guys !!
Don't be fooled by AEG !!!
Don't let them make money by MJ's death!!!
They didn't take good care of Mike so he died!!!
Don't spend ur money on these products pls!!!

That picture is so cool! I bet I have it in my walls=) I love that jacket.. and I love MJ

i love this pic but were the pic that you guys promised of the memorial wall at the stapels center

i love this pic but were the pic that you guys promised of the memorial wall at the stapels center

LOL This is soooooooo awsome it has both the singing icon Michael Jackson and a guitar icon Van Halen.Another cool thing about this is that they are both in groups or used to be!

Every marketing and display of OPUS is fine but why were the fans cheated? Why didn't we get our copies by 25th December. I had preordered it in September. Even till date I haven't recieved a FEDEX link for this. Is this to be taken to the court?

I placed my order in late September and got my copy two (2) days before Christmas and I am sooooooooooo happy with it! It is an awesome book and I will never regret the money spent on it.

Michael, you get the 5 M review for this photo... mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm! Yummy!

Yeah! Go Mikey! I soo want that jacket! And Eddie Van Halen is great!

Avon will donate $1,000,000 to Haiti. 50 cents for each Skin So Soft product that you buy from Campaign 4 through 6.
