Description from the seller
General Information
Artist: Michael Jackson
Title: Dangerous
Label: Epic
Catalog number: ET 45400
Format: Cassette, Album
Year: 1991
Country: US
Edition: First Edition
Genre: Pop / R&B / New Jack Swing
Description
Released on November 26, 1991, Dangerous marked a significant stylistic shift for Michael Jackson. Moving away from his long-time collaborator Quincy Jones, Jackson teamed up with Teddy Riley to pioneer and popularize the "New Jack Swing" sound. The album is a masterpiece of production, blending industrial rhythms with gospel, funk, and pop. It spent four weeks at number one on the Billboard 200 and produced legendary singles such as "Black or White," "Remember the Time," and "Jam." The iconic cover art, designed by pop-surrealist Mark Ryden, took six months to complete and is filled with hidden symbolism reflecting Jackson's life and the world at the time.
Condition
Tape: Presumed MINT (unplayed)
Case: Factory-sealed, never opened (small crack on corner, see pics)
Notes for collectors
This is an original 1991 US factory-sealed copy of the album. For serious collectors, this specimen is particularly desirable as it retains its original "Y-fold" factory shrink-wrap, complete with visible circular vent holes—a key indicator of an authentic, untampered period seal. Unlike later reissues, this original pressing features the full, vibrant Mark Ryden artwork on the J-card. Finding "New Old Stock" (NOS) copies of Dangerous in this condition is becoming increasingly difficult as the demand for 90s-era Michael Jackson media continues to climb.
