We join in mourning the passing of musical titan and 2001 Kennedy Center Honors recipient Quincy Jones.
A renowned composer, arranger, conductor, instrumentalist, and producer, Jones had an immense influence on American culture for more than 70 years, working with artists from every era of popular music from bebop to hip hop. His versatility and imagination helped transform iconic songs into global hits.
During his lifetime, Jones received countless accolades-including holding the record for all-time Grammy nominations with 80 total and 28 Grammy Awards.
A true musical mogul, Jones’ legacy will live on for generations to come.

Ray and Quincy. From 2 young kids hustling in Seattle trying to become musicians - to changing the WORLD through their music. What a story.
What an absolute legend, what a loss for music... Goodbye Mr Jones, thank you for everything...
'Well done, my good and faithful servant, well done..."
What a loss what a legend what a body of work he left for us all to continue to enjoy well into the future 🔮 and look at all those talented folks who worked with him. Going way way back to before my time. Sarah Vaughn count basie. I had the give me the 🌃 album by george benson. Even though some said he was a jazz man who sold out by going commercial. I wasn't aware at the time. It introduced me to an old standard james moodys mood. Enjoyed that bonus. Michaels living of the wall was just a prelude to the big deal thriller album. It was still a good album. Don't stop til you get enough. She's outta my life for tarum o neal. Q said i want you to cry into the microphone. You what? Yes you know. So the story goes... well so.long quincy. There must be a rock n roll heaven. 🎶 just gotta be. Go to your reward and rest now. ❤ from a fan with memories. New zealand. Thank you. XOXO 😢

In the 2018 biographical documentary "Quincy," on Quincy Jones and his life, there is a video clip of Quincy Jones being interviewed by Oprah Winfrey, where Quincy Jones makes an interesting statement, saying that he and his contemporaries were not done making music, and that he and his contemporaries would continue making the best quality music they could, to leave behind for future generations.
The way Quincy put it, is that we want our work to speak for itself, so much so, that future generations "will know we came through here." Loved the way Quincy put it. For what it’s worth Mr. Jones, future generations will know the likes of Bach, Beethoven, Mozart, Louis Armstrong, Elvis Presley and Prince "came through here," and future generations too, will know that Quincy Jones "came through here."
Rest in Peace, Mr. Jones.

Lovely! His legacy will be here forever.
Your present will be missed dearly ❤❤❤

RIP Quincy Jones. I’m still feeling sad because the White House still hasn’t honored the late Norman Lear with a reception, & Caroll Spinney, the late original man behind Big Bird, still hasn’t been honored by a President either.
