@mdelseta2004 What's exciting is that the story goes farther back than that; there's actually a full version of MJ performing Behind The Mask recorded during the Thriller sessions, which wound up getting remixed and included on the "Michael" album last winter. Phillinganes was part of the Thriller sessions (if memory serves he was actually MJ's keyboardist as far back as the Jacksons' "Destiny", but I think I might be wrong on that detail). Greg's version is based off the Jackson arrangement.
@Tenniru Sorry...the 1st VOCAL performance was by Philliganes, who, by chance, became MJ's keyboarder (I don't know if it's the right word) from the BAD Tour in 1987
@mdelseta2004 I'm aware (well, technically the original performance was YMO in 1979, but that's semantics), but I was surprised that Greg is singing on the Clapton cover (as opposed to, you know, Clapton).
Written by Michael Jackson in 1980, was sang by Greg Philliganes first, then by Eric Clapton....and then it "came back" to Michael in his postumous album "Michael"
was phill collins playing or the drums are sintetized?
