    Michael Jackson: 'Definitive book about star's life' to be published by Opus
    A rare new biography of Michael Jackson by publishers Opus that the star hoped would be the "definitive book about his life" is to go ahead following a legal battle.


    Published: 7:11AM BST 14 Aug 2009
    Michael Jackson: 'Definitive book about star's life' to be published by Opus
    The Michael Jackson Opus is due for publication in December


    The Michael Jackson Opus is due for publication in December and will feature never seen before lyrics written by hand, and drawings and pictures from the singer's personal archives.


    Plans to publish the book had begun before the King of Pop died of a heart attack in June. Last week, a judge in Los Angeles ruled that the project could go ahead, given that Jackson had already given it his blessing.


    His entertainment lawyer, Peter Lopez, said the Thriller singer had been excited about the Opus.


    "There is no question that Michael was really excited about it," he said. "He thought it was grand on a scale he had never seen before.


    "He loved the format of the book. He said to me: 'We must do this.' A ten-minute meeting we had with the Opus people turned into an hour and we were discussing putting stuff in that people had never seen before. He was just very excited about doing the definitive book of his life in great pictures and in great detail."


    The 12kg, 13in by 18in Opus will be handbound in leather and delivered in a silk clamshell case and is being sold for a special discounted price of £109 ($165).


    It will be produced by the team behind several other Opus books, including one on Manchester United that became the most expensive sports book ever when it was sold for £1m this year.


    Unlike the other Opus books however, which have a limited print run to maximise their exclusivity, this book will have an unlimited run until a set date.

    It will include handwritten lyrics that never featured on any of Jackson's albums, three dimensional images and a picture taken of the singer in Minneapolis in May 1988 during his Bad tour which he had blown up and framed and told friends was one of his favourite performance pictures.


    Researchers will now begin, with the blessing of his estate, to go through the singer's notebooks and boxes scattered around the world with the hope of finding sketches he did for some of his most famous albums.


    Karl Fowler, chief executive of Opus media group, said: "We know there are lyrics and notes on songs that he wrote that have never been seen before."

    Klar sind 165$ verdammt viel Geld, aber ich kenne andere Sammlerausgaben, z.B von den Rolling Stones vom Genesis Verlag, die um ein vielfaches teurer waren, damals um die 1000-2000DM und noch mehr.
