I love how Michael Jackson's name is in the middle of a long list as if he is not the most important person to ever have worked with Quincy Jones. If it weren't for Michael Jackson many people would never have even known who Quincy was. Speaking of Quincy I greatly resent interviews after Michael died where Quincy made fun of his skin disease and said he "wanted to be white". Seriously? Quincy excuse me but do I need to remind you that YOU have only dated (and married) WHITE women? Why is that?
