Performer Notes - Personnel: Michael Jackson (vocals, background vocals); Siedah Garrett (vocals); Donnie Lyle (guitar).
- Audio Mixer: Serban Ghenea.
- Photographers: Stephen Harvey; Dick Zimmerman; Sam Emerson.
- The 1990s may not have been kind to Michael Jackson on a commercial level, due to fickle music tastes and assorted personal controversies, but NUMBER ONES reinforces Jackson's place in pop culture history. Unlike its preceding compilation, HIStory, this anthology trims the fat, although occasionally going overboard in leaving off certified chart-toppers like the Paul McCartney duet "Say Say Say" in lieu of lesser-known, latter-day fare like "Earth Song."
- That said, casual fans of the Gloved One will still feast on plenty, ranging from dance classics like "Don't Stop 'Til You Get Enough" and "Rock with You" from 1979's stellar OFF THE WALL to the singles that powered the industry-shifting THRILLER and BAD. Among the hits featured here are "Beat It," (with its tour de force Eddie Van Halen solo), the scathing "Dirty Diana" (with Steve Stevens substituting for Van Halen), and catchy title cuts from the aforementioned albums. Meanwhile, Alien Ant Farm fans get to reacquaint themselves with the original "Smooth Criminal," and R. Kelly fans get to experience Jacko croon "One More Chance," the single new song that was penned and produced by Kelly.

I'm not a huge Jackson fan, but felt i needed some Jackson in my collection. If that's like you, then this album is the way to go, all the good songs that you sometimes feel like listening to when in a flippant sort of mood and no dodgy filler tracks. Billie Jean is probably my favourite track of the album really (oh the shame).

For those fans who just want the top hits this is a good CD but when you look at it micheals career cannot be appropriatly clasified on a CD, it has to be classified on at least 2 CD's hence why i sold this CD and got the essential, still a very good CD packed from one end to the other with number 1 hits from the pop king

Michael Jackson...what more can you ask for? He'll always be the K.O.P. I love both of his ballades and pop/rock. This CD is a good collection of his hits but it doesn't have the hit anthemn 'Heal the World'. I personally like THE ESSENTIAL MICHAEL JACKSON better because it covers both the Jackson Five era and MJ's solo career.

this is classic MJ. all his hits through the decades ...the 'ben' live track is just thrilling and is a reminder that Michael Jackson has an amazing voice and vocal range as well being the most charismatic and talented performer of the modern world. there are so many songs and recordings and putting a CD together that makes you realise and remember this is worth having in your collection.

This is one neat little CD. Will have you dancing around the lounge singing along. Brings back memories of the good old days. Michael Jackson was (and always will be) a legend.
