Michael Jackson - 1 Year Later

It's hardly believable that it has been a year since the untimely death of the "King Of Pop".

In that year we've seen the release of "This Is It", the hit movie and DVD, countless TV music specials and retrospectives and even a video game by Ubisoft.  There are even plans for a Michael Jackson museum and "Captain Eo" is also scheduled for a return to Disney World at Epcot center, Disneyland Paris and Tokyo Disneyland.

















Before, becoming the "King of Pop", with releases like "Thriller", "Bad" and "Dangerous", I had the pleasure of seeing The Jacksons in concert on August 15th, 1981 at The Hartford Civic Center (picture). One of the most memorable concerts that I've ever seen, full of pyrotechnics, great music and Michael's signature dance moves.

I will remember Michael Jackson more for his music. As a DJ for over 30 years, his music has been the soundtrack of my life in nightclubs, on radio, at weddings and just about any social event that I've played music.  There's a reason Michael Jackson is the "King Of Pop".  According to Nielsen SoundScan, he has nine of the 17 best-selling R&B hits in digital history.

Here are some of the most popular requests played at our events:
  1. Billie Jean
  2. Thriller
  3. Don't Stop Till You Get Enough
  4. The Way You Make Me Feel
  5. ABC
  6. I Want You Back
  7. Wanna Be Starting Somethin'
  8. PYT
  9. Rock With You
  10. Beat It
Some of my personal favorites are tucked away on albums, collaborations with other artists or just rare gems:
  • Jackson 5 - Mama's Pearl
  • Jackson 5 - Looking Through The Windows
  • Jackson 5 - Skywriter
  • Jackson 5 - Who's Loving You

Nicole & Conor - April 16th

Destination Wedding - Montego Bay, Jamaica After leaving a 38 degree and overcast Connecticut, the 82 degree weather was welcomed for the much anticipated wedding of Nicole & Conor, who had arrived several days earlier at Sandals Royal Caribbean Resort. Also arriving earlier was our good friends Brian & Kate from Brian Ambrose Photography who are capturing and documenting pre-bridal and post-bridal events in their unique way.  It's a great pleasure working with a professional like this, so far from home, who's only interest is to make sure that we work as a team in the best interest of the Bride & Groom. After settling in, we met with Nicole & Conor for our pre-bridal consultation and also scheduled an appointment with our Sandals wedding coordinator Jill, plus a full dress rehearsal ceremony before the Rehearsal Dinner.  In the notably laid-back style of the island, I had to coordinate with the house DJ who was providing on-site sound reinforcement, with
