Quincy Jones embodies the best of what it means to be fully human.He's always been on the cutting edge, at least a generation ahead of everyone else: in movies, in theater, in television, and, of course, in music.Now, in the disguise of an artist, he transcends art into healing.
This is a great book and works on so many different levels: as intimate biography, as powerful literature, and the story of one who transcended suffering into healing.And what an interesting life!
But this is more than just a fascinating story.He offers a wise roadmap to self-discovery and wholeness, both individually and culturally.Read it and be inspired by his courage and wisdom.
Somehow, the corrosive idea that the evil guy is interesting and the good guy is boring has entered popular culture, especially in rap and hip-hop.Only an artist of Quincy Jones' stature could show by extraordinary example even to the most angry and dispossessed that it is possible to be both loving and cool, generous and hip, selfless and self-fulfilled--and that it's a lot more fun and exciting to live this way.Come for the music and stay for the love.
