Essential Compilation - Disc 2

Essential Compilation is a Michael Jackson Greatest Hits album compiled by C.Syde65. It is not an official Michael Jackson album and thus can not be bought.

This 2-disc greatest hits album includes many of Michael Jackson's greatest hits with Epic Records, though it also includes a couple of songs from Michael Jackson's early years with Motown Records.

Most of these songs are considered to be hits, though a few of them were included as part of this compilation simply because they were on my personal Michael Jackson favourites list.

While most of these songs were recorded by Michael Jackson as a solo artist, occasionally featuring another artist such as Paul McCartney, a couple of songs with The Jackson 5/The Jacksons also found their way onto this compilation.

The album includes a total of 22 tracks that were recorded between 1970 - January 1997. Here is the track listing for the second of the two discs. The track listing for the first disc can be found here.
