Visionary: The Video Singles is a series of Michael Jackson's biggest hit singles, released in Europe between February 20, 2006 and June 26, 2006, and then released in the U.S. as a boxed set on November 14, 2006.
[edit] History
Jackson worked on the Visionary project as executive producer, giving final approval on the music, video editing, packaging, & design. In the UK, Sony BMG released a single each week over a five-month period. Jackson became the first to use DualDisc technology for singles.
The first CD single to be released as part of the Visionary box set was Jackson's 1983 hit "Thriller" along with the collector's box on February 20, 2006. All the DualDisc singles, which featured a CD format on one side and a DVD format on the other, were eligible to chart on industry sales charts as they were released individually as regular music singles.
Each single contained a 7-inch edit and a bonus track on the CD side, with the DVD side containing the single's accompanying music video, along with the two tracks from the audio side in PCM stereo sound.
