What a fucking flex lol. I have rudimentary arranger skills, enough to understand the pain of simply not being capable of expressing something I can feel/hear internally. He really could do that on a level that very few people ever have been able to. Legend.

- JohnBooty 2y agoWhat a fucking flex lol I don't have a link handy but another hilarious thing to look up is Quincy talking about the Beatles' (lack of, in his opinion) chops I love the Beatles but it's endlessly hilarious to me
- tarkin2 2y agoI looked this up on YouTube. It seems a bit of a non-controversy with Quincy criticising Ringo's skills and Paul's bass playing. Comparing a virtuoso arranger and a band whose main strength was their song writing skills is a bit of a non starter honestly.
- mixmastamyk 2y agoEvery band improves over time as well and the Beatles hit pretty early. Without a time frame the comment is not that useful.
- JohnBooty 2y agoIt's not a controversy, it's just funny... to many. I'm sorry you didn't find it interesting.
- MrSkelter 2y agoThis is one of the great interviews of all time. Totally hilarious. https://www.vulture.com/article/quincy-jones-in-conversation.html https://www.vulture.com/article/quincy-jones-in-conversation...
