Michael Jackson - Off The Wall live Memphis in Los Angeles 1981

[@Thomas___]

This is why Michael Jackson was the best

[@DTownNash]

As usual, Michael is the only one who doesn't look ridiculous in his concert outfit

[@x_ray5531]

TheLNashProject I don’t think Jackies’ looked ridiculous. His was probably the second best. Marlon and Randy on the other hand though 😂😂

[@juandef4115]

Probably as they were trying too hard to out do Michael. They hated each other in their 20s. When they did the victory tour, they all arrived separately. Never sharing transport. Also, they never did that for security either.

[@marysutton434]

X_Ray 🤭 what about Tito's outfit?

[@sarahbrinkley2180]

juan def why did they hate each other

[@aramiyunstaley9514]

Sarah Brinkley they wanted to be better than each other

[@aliceinchainz3003]

next to thriller the off the wall album was the best... still hard to belive hes gone .. just so sad he gave the world so much we lived across the street from hitsville in the 70s so we seen so much just hard to belive...still

[@Thomas___]

He just looks so cool here and sounds dope. Why do people not realise how good this is. This should be on the news everyday. Its just *_THAT_* good!

[@shaikzubair3833]

Really Michael Jackson is my favorite singer.

[@Nyomigolden6632]

His voice is incredible right here!!!

[@williamking595]

OP dubbed this performance but the actual audio from this concert does sound phenomenal.

[@EmmL1223]

I'm really happy my parents introduced me to the 70s and MJ OFF THE WALL has those elements. Can't never be tired of it

[@upkarsaimbi]

1981 - before Thriller, did he in his wildest dreams imagine how successful that would be?!

[@nathanlopez5667]

Upkar Saimbi yeah he would have no idea how big he would be the following year around this time during the tour and even after the tour he was already demoing songs for Thriller and the demos sound incredible

[@Thomas___]

@@nathanlopez5667 *_He had Wanna be Startin somethin in 1979_*

[@nathanlopez5667]

@@Thomas___ yes he recorded a demo of it

[@juandef4115]

He did imagine it. Michael was a visionary. However, you could he right. He may have not been aware of his success in just a matter of weeks with Thriller. Then cementing his glory and place as an official icon at Motown 25.

[@kskufan]

I love it and I love the song When in J goes over to the guitar player and moves his head with rhythm movement it's so damn fine

3:35 Every live video of "Off the Wall," David brings it home

[@swampcitycrip]

Not sure if the video playing is original but the audio sounds amazing

[@williamking595]

The actual audio actually sounds better. They changed it from the video. It's on youtube if you're interested.

[@strawberry-33-30]

Can you share the link?

[@Cyrath89]

It's not the original. It's from The Jackson's live album simply called Live. Can still be bought, mostly songs from MJ's Off the Wall and The Jacksons' songs.

[@SimseHD]

Isnt the tempo a bit faster, than the studio version? Live is so much more alive

*_Best era. Also that's when his vitiligo starts_*

Facts his vitiligo was very visible😎👍🏽💯 In my opinion all Eras of Michael are dope😎💯

No it wasn't, he said it happened sometime after Thriller. He's at the end of the Off The Wall Era here.

Memphis or Los Angeles? I believe Memphis bcuz MJ wore a different outfit in Los Angeles. Great footage.

always wondered if they came here to memphis

[@terryzt1164]

on I'm just hearing the audio is from LA. I also have The Jacksons Live CD. ain't it good?

[@mikem591]

This version of Michael was more masculine, seemed taller and over all -kicked ass..

[@Thomas___]

Lol I like how you put version in it as if he was a video game character that has multiple suits hah. Overall I agree, i just like how he's not skinny or fat. He looks STRONG and healthy. Badass and athletic

[@Thomas___]

1977 to 1981 Michael was my fav. He still looked like how he was born, except his nose. In 1982 he looked so different from 1981. Well that's Mike. He was rare. He was a god

[@lowaynenoneen]

Yes!!! Is it just me or does he seem shorter in the this is it rehearsals??🤔🤔

[@Jayden-sh2jt]

@@lowaynenoneen Probably just better camera's. He was 5'9 his whole adult life and again 5'9 in his autopsy sooooo. I do know what you're trying to say tho and it's utterly ridicules

The grainy footage is definitely from the New Orleans concert. The audio is definitely from the Jacksons Live cd. I wanna say the clear footage is from Atlanta 81 but I'm not 100% sure.

No. This is from Memphis and the live audio is the audio from this

Hell MJ did less dancing back then.....
