Chicago’s roots dub-reggae group The Drastics have been feverishly working on their tribute to the late great King of Pop, Michael Jackson.  The band had this to say about their tribute album MJ A ROCKER:

In honor of his birthday next weekend! Some of you thought it was a joke … but it’s very very real … and finally here … ! Our tribute to Michael Joseph Jackson .. imagine Sir Coxsone in the production seat instead of Quincy and you’re about half-way there … Included are I Want You Back, Rock With You, Don’t Stop ’til You Get Enough, Billie Jean, Smooth Criminal, and The Way You Make Me Feel … These aren’t instrumentals or covers-per-se … you just gotta hear it to believe it …

You can download the album for FREE right HERE or you can stream it below:
