"Walk Right Now"

So, when will this 1980 track (from the fantastic Triumph LP) be awarded the canonical status in the Jackson ouevre it so richly deserves? The first recorded version of pure, shrieking terror and venom in Jackson's voice -- not to mention the perfect musical bridge between "Don't Stop 'Til You Get Enough" and "Wanna Be Startin' Somethin'" (intense, otherworldly, polyrhthmically rich beyond compare). More on this later, possibly.
