Thanks for the tout. I'm eager to hear the album. As for the rest of Quincy Jones' career, for me, the highlight is his version of "Killer Joe," from "Walking in Space," circa 1970. That should always be listened to with earbuds. It's close to breathtaking.

Quincy Jones' career has been phenomenal. It actually started in the 1950's. He is truly remarkable, an unparalleled personality in 20th century music.
