Sheryl Crow: 'I Am Grateful to Have Known Him'

Sheryl Crow: 'I Am Grateful to Have Known Him'

"His was a rare talent that we witness once in a lifetime. One who makes such an indelible mark that for generations singers and dancers attribute him as inspiration.  I had the great privilege of watching him every night doing what he did best—entertain. I am grateful to have known him for the 2 years I worked for him and will mourn his loss with his many millions of fans across the world." -- Sheryl Crow (in concert with Jackson in 1988)
