Michael Jackson's Bad CD gets star treatment

On 18 September 2012 it will be 25 years ago that Michael Jackson released his blockbuster CD, Bad. To celebrate this event, the CD will get dusted off for rerelease with extra goodies. Rolling Stone reports that the 25th anniversary set, titled Bad 25, will features three CDs, a DVD and two booklets. The DVD will include Jackson's personal video recording of his performance at Wembley Stadium in London on July 16th, 1988. The video will be the first full concert performance from the Bad tour to be commercially released, and will be seen without cuts, exactly as it played out on stage before an audience of 72,000 fans, including Princess Diana. A CD featuring professionally recorded audio from the Wembley concert will also be included, along with a remastered version of the original Bad album. A third CD will feature previously unreleased demos of songs that did not make it to the album, along with new remixes of material from Bad. A standard edition of the Bad reissue will also be released, including the remastered album and unreleased material, but omitting the Wembley performance.
