Steve Lukather talks about recording Beat It guitar riff

[Galactus123]

Great interview:

At 3:47. So he recorded a much more heavier sounding riff at first and Quincy liked it but didn't want to use because the song needed to be on pop and R&B radio. I wish they would release this version too.

Wish Steve and MJ had rerecorded a HM version if BI for T25.

 

[BlackAnon]

Hopefully one day we hear the demo with Tito on guitar

Wish Steve and MJ had rerecorded a HM version if BI for T25.

They can always do it for Thriller 50.

Does Rick Beato rate MJ’s music highly or not?
I watch his youtube videos regularly but he never really talked about MJ yet
