May 15, 2001 - Michael Jackson's upcoming album is one "hot" recording,
according to rumors from inside the studio. Given how long it's been
since he had an outright hit, the naysayers may not believe it, but
those in the production studio say this album will put the spring back
into Jackson's moonwalk. "I'm recording across the hall from him at
the hit factory and you should hear the buzz," said LUTHER VANDROSS,
whose self-titled album is due June 19. "The assistant engineers,
that's a real good monitor, a real good gauge for whether or not it's hot
in there. They come back and they say, 'oh it's so hot in there, it's
great, the music is really sounding good, everbody's gonna really love
this." Vandross has also been bumping into the King of Pop around the
studio and says he is in good spirits. "He seems great, he seems just
fine, well-adjusted and everything." [ABCNews]
