Michael Jackson’s ‘Thriller’ Jacket To Be Auctioned

Posted by Christian Allaire on June 6th, 2011

The infamous red and black leather jacket Michael Jackson wore in his ‘Thriller’ video is being auctioned, reports CTV.

The auction administrator, Darren Julien, says the jacket is “the most recognized and significant piece of pop culture” to come up for sale and expects the jacket will get at least $200,000.

The jacket is even autographed, as Jackson signed the jacket as a gift to his longtime costume designers, Dennis Tompkins and Michael Bush.

The jacket will be fought over at the ‘Music Icons’ auction on June 25 and 26 at Julien’s Auctions in Beverly Hills.

Other Jackson items up for sale include the wig he wore when he announced his ‘This Is It’ tour in London, a fedora and sparkled glove he wore on stage, his shirt from the ‘Scream’ video and a beaten mailbox from the Carolwood Drive estate where Jackson died in 2009.

The auction will also include one of Eric Clapton’s guitars, Frank Sinatra’s 1986 Jaguar, handwritten lyrics and a leather jacket from Johnny Cash, and a signed harmonica from Bob Dylan, among others.

A portion of the proceeds will benefit the Shambala Preserve.

These are definitely pieces of history, so if you’ve got some cash to spare, head on over and bid. I think a sequinned glove is a great investment.

Posted by Vanessa Baker on January 15th, 2010

The final album by late country singer Johnny Cash will be released Feb. 26, which would have been his 78th birthday, reports CBC. Cash died in 2003 at the age of 71, four months after his wife, June Carter Cash, passed away.

American VI: Ain’t No Grave is being produced by Rick Rubin, who was behind Cash’s other posthumous release, American V: A Hundred Highways, released July 22, 2006. The album will feature one of the last songs the singer ever wrote, I Corinthians: 15:55.

The album also features Cash covering Sheryl Crow’s “Redemption Day,” Kris Kristofferson’s “For the Good Times,” and Tom Paxton’s “Can’t Help But Wonder Where I’m Bound.”

Snoop Dogg Remixes Johnny Cash

Posted by Eva Lam on July 12th, 2008

Hip-hop and dance music meet country on the upcoming compilation “Johnny Cash Remixed.”

The album, executive produced by the late country legend’s son, features such contemporary artists as Snoop Dogg putting their own spin on recordings licensed from Cash’s first label, Sun Records.

Snoop, who is also an executive producer on the album, remixes the 1956 hit “I Walk The Line” via QDT, a new production team the rapper has formed with Teddy Riley and DJ Quik.

Other remixes include “Folsom Prison Blues” by Pete Rock, “Get Rhythm” by Philip Steir and “Leave That Junk Alone” by Alabama 3, creators of the theme from “The Sopranos.”

“[Johnny Cash] would have loved this remix record,” son John Carter Cash, who also produced the 2005 Cash biopic “Walk The Line,” said in a statement.

“While it stays true to the original recordings, this CD touches on undiscovered ground. This is what my father was about: staying true to tradition while creating groundbreaking new music.”

The album will be released in stores and online on Oct. 14, while a deluxe vinyl edition will be available in select independent record stores on Sept. 23.

A documentary about the making of “Remixed” is also in production.

Stars Walk the Line for Johnny Cash Tribute

Posted by Eva Lam on October 22nd, 2005

U2, Foo Fighters, Norah Jones and Jerry Lee Lewis are among the stars who will perform at ?I Walk the Line: A Night for Johnny Cash.?

The CBS special is scheduled to air Nov. 16, two days before the Joaquin Phoenix-starring Cash biopic ?Walk the Line? hits theatres, reports Billboard.

Other acts set to put their own spin on songs by the country music legend include Sheryl Crow, Alison Krauss, Kris Kristofferson, Dwight Yoakam, Kid Rock, Martina McBride and Brad Paisley.

Shooter Jennings, who portrays his late father Waylon in “Walk the Line,” will also perform.

Introducing the performances will be Phoenix, Reese Witherspoon (who portrays June Carter Cash in the 20th Century Fox film) and Dennis Quaid.

Quaid himself once starred in another biopic about a legendary musician, playing Lewis in the 1989 movie ?Great Balls of Fire.?

The special will feature clips from ?Walk the Line,? video highlights from Cash?s illustrious career and, of course, a lot of Cash music. In a CBS Television press release, show producers say viewers can look forward to performances of songs including “I Walk the Line,” “Sunday Morning Coming Down,” “I Still Miss Someone,” “Folsom Prison Blues” and the Johnny Cash/June Carter duet “Jackson.”

The one-hour special will air Nov. 16 at 8 p.m. (EST) on CBS, the night after the CMA Awards, also on CBS.

CBS aired a similar tribute to Ray Charles shortly before ?Ray? hit theatres last year.

The soundtrack for ?Walk the Line? is due Nov. 15 via Wind-Up and features singing from Phoenix and Witherspoon, as well as tracks by Jennings, Johnathan Rice, Waylon Payne and Tyler Hilton.
