Review: E.T. was released in November 1982, the same month as Jackson's sixth studio album Thriller (1982). Court action taken by the pop star's record label (Epic Records), subsequently forced the album to be withdrawn. During its limited release, E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial reached number 82 on the UK Albums Chart. It was well received critically and earned Jackson a Grammy Award for Best Recording for Children.
The E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial album package contains a storybook, allowing listeners to read along with Jackson as he narrates the tale of E.T. and his time on planet earth. The book contains a picture of E.T. placing his hands on Jackson's shoulders, with one of his fingers illuminating. The picture is further included as a large full-color poster within the package. Within the 20-page storybook are stills from the movie and the lyrics to the song "Someone in the Dark". The album recording features sound effects from the accompanying movie, as well as the voice of E.T. in the background.
