Ian Brown to release Jackson-inspired album

added: 21 Jul 2009 // by: newsdesk 

IAN BROWN said he is going to release an album inspired by Michael Jackson.

The former Stone Roses frontman will release My Way, his sixth solo album, in September, according to NME.com.

And he said the LP was mostly inspired by Jackson's seminal 1982 album Thriller and ironically, the final day of mixing took place on June 25, the day he passed away.

Speaking to NME, Brown said: "Thriller was our blueprint. Every time we wrote a song we didn't think was strong enough, we scrapped it. We mastered it on the day that Michael Jackson died too, so I'm taking that as a good omen."

Recorded at Manchester's Battery Studios with producer Dave McCracken, My Way will include lead single Stellify, which is out September 21.
