Michael Jackson – Dirty Diana (Live)

The best concerts of Michael Jackson were during the Bad tour. I have seen only bootleg copies of it as it has never been released. Why was the Bad tour special? It was live, it was raw, it was energetic. Rather than the mostly lipsynced, mechanical performances during the Dangerous and History tours, during Bad he was in the shape of his life, full of energy, spontaneity and life. One really needs to see it to understand the MJ phenomenon.

Luckily, Sony has now put online one performance from that era. Hopefully there the whole tour will be released on DVD as well. There are even online petitions to get it done.
