Quincy Jones Interview


gareneau
Minori, just so we're on the same page here, I was using this definition from the internet:

  • a person who believes that their tastes in a particular area are superior to those of other people."a musical snob"
So, how could it not apply to your posts?
Nothing is better, nothing is best. Take care of your health and get  ...

For the record, I know what I like and don’t like. That doesn’t make me a snob. Never said or will say that my taste is better than someone else’s. Always open to new exciting things and I am always open to learning new things.

life is short to think I’m there. Got a long way to go.

took out my Beatles revolver, white album, and 1967-1970 albums just to check and realized that sgt. pepper and a few others are missing.  WTH?

still think delicate sound of thunder is better musically than dark side of the moon.  But that’s me.

i don’t understand how albums develop legs and walk away.

interesting


Clickbaits from interviews are very popular these days and I’m sure Quincy said fairly innocuous things for most of this one but the 3 or 4 that would elicit OMGs were pushed forward as being the most important ones he said. Sort of like sitting at Thanksgiving dinner only focusing on the 2 or 3 tasteless comments your drunken uncle spews out over the dessert...
minori, "for the record:"

"The Beatles were not very good musicians. That is a fact."

You also said it is "well-documented" that the Beatles were not good musicians.  Could you give us five or ten examples of this "documentation?"
