    Jim Henson Studios – Where “We Are The World” Was Recorded

    ‘ One year ago today the world said good-bye to a man who was arguably the greatest music legend who ever lived – the irreplaceable King of Pop, Michael Jackson.  In some ways, it feels as if more than a decade has passed since June 25th of last year when Michael passed way, yet in…
