Quincy Jones Dead at 91!

[R1chard]

Can I ask why you hate him and have no sympathy at all?

Hate is such a strong word, did you know him personally to hate him?

I wouldn't worry about this guy, he's a lost cause. He hates literally everything, he never grew out of being a rebellious teenager.

Would this mean mj estate working with Jones estate for future releases, or is it too soon for these types of discussions.

Quincy was vehemently against posthumous releases. I don't doubt he has something written in his will that prevents the release of said material.

"I am heartbroken to learn of the passing of my friend, the one and only musical genius, Quincy Jones. Quincy touched my world as both a cherished mentor and as also as someone I looked up to for his deep impact on virtually every form of American music.

I was privileged to work with Quincy, it was a dream come true. In our sessions, his musical intuition was nothing short of profound - he helped me capture “a little piece of heaven.” Quincy always knew exactly what each song needed.

In addition to his kindness and countless achievements, I also admired him for his philanthropic work which benefited the arts, global famine and underprivileged youth. His reach truly extends to all corners of the globe!

Quincy once said, “Music is the soul of the universe. It connects us all on a level that words alone cannot reach.” May his wisdom and joy remain with us always.

I mean, not even wanting to talk about it like that yet, but I can see demoes being released in a strictly archival sense. Just like The Ultimate Collection and Thriller 25.

The Michael/Xscape approach is a definite No No.

My guess is we will see a Beatles type Super Deluxe Edition released in 2032/33 with all the bells and whistles. We will probably see an exhaustive OTW 50 before the decade is out. I don't think the Estate wanted to risk a lot of the material on what was the first major release since 2019.

I really hope you're right. Off The Wall is my favorite MJ album, and I hope they find some more demos for the 50th edition.

I don't think there are many demo's from OTW. Maybe a few, but don't forget, MJ was on tour during the production of the album and several of the songs that made the album were already released previously by other artists (Girlfriend, It's The Falling in Love). Which tells me they were scraping for material.

"I miss Q so much. I am so honored and blessed to be apart of his incredible legacy. I was 12yo!! Haven’t tweeted anything until now because I am literally still grieving.

My whole family is blessed to have known him. He was such a great soul, inspiration. Such a great man. Tweets like this used to seem so corny to me…but in this case it’s as right as rain."
