Whenever I see #QuincyJones' name, I just think about his "brother" in #FlightOfTheConcords and laugh.

Happy 90th birthday to music icon Quincy Jones. He has worked with so many legends, helping to bring out their best.
Among my favorites is his work on the soundtrack for The Wiz. It was the first time he worked with Michael Jackson, before working with him on three records, including Thriller.
“You Can’t Win” from the soundtrack:

#NowPlaying. The Dude. (1981). Y'know, there are a couple of hits on this album, but I have a feeling most people who don't have the album have never heard the title track. #Music #Vinyl #QuincyJones

This was a favorite quip from my @Albumism #interview with the legendary #PatriceRushen re: talking to #QuincyJones at age 15.
"He said, 'What do you want to do?' And I said, 'Oh, sir, I want to write...for film and TV.' He looked at me and said, 'Wow, first of all, you're going to have to be real, real good.' Which I thought—even at 15—that was a little odd because why wouldn't you be trying to be good?"
