I think just abo...Wow, thanks for sharing Vivian! <br /><br />I think just about anyone who worked with Michael has commented on his insomnia--he would call them in the middle of the night! I know David Nordahl is one of them...<br /><br />I swear he says it in this interview or one that looks just like it:<br /><br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yKllp9_hR3Q&feature=related<br /><br />I may just keep missing it, I believe it is in part one or two and he is by himself, not with Louie or LaToya...gatorgirl277https://www.blogger.com/profile/01700536873177629282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3092279688859602255.post-56619861405634026752011-09-27T21:49:34.049-07:002011-09-27T21:49:34.049-07:00I saw your tweet

Todd Gray, his photographer from 1974-84 noted it:<br />http://www.amazon.com/Michael-Jackson-Before-Was-King/dp/0811875067 (Amazon's Q & A with author)<br />"Sometimes he didn’t sleep well in hotels on the road, and he had a special recording machine that switched on in the middle of the night and played stories. It had three clocks--you can see it on the nightstand in the second photo in the book."<br />(It's the photo of Michael sleeping in his jeans in bed, you can see it here: http://www.themjifc.com/forum/michael-jackson/13682-photographer-todd-gray-about-mike.html)<br /><br />I also remember an interview (can't remember if it was text or video) where Gray said something like how Michael didn't sleep well at night and so caught up during the day. So that's how he got that picture of Michael sleeping as Michael had missed meeting and wouldn't wake up (it was morning or afternoon).<br /><br />And of course we have LMP saying how Michael had trouble sleeping when they were married and she could hear him "putter" around the room.Vivianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16375388848188713792noreply@blogger.com
