Michael with his “B-Team”

We just clicked, Our musical sensibilities were very compatible. There are some people where you can speak and they know exactly what you’re speaking about.

Human nature by Steve Porcaro and John Bettis for Michael Jackson

“Sequencing an album is one of the joys in being a producer because it’s like making a movie”, reflected Quincy Jones. “That’s why I had “Human Nature” right after “Billie Jean” on Thriller.
