Parrish On KEYS

Quincy Jones Has Done So Much In His 75 Plus Years Of Music Production, But This Album "The Dude" Released In May 1981, Is The Album That Really Introduced Me To This Musical Genuis, Super Producer And Legend.

In 1981, I Was In The 9th Grade, Had Not Touched A Musical Instrument, But Loved Music Thanks To My Parents. My Mom Bought This Album And The 1st Time I Heard It, It Taught Me Music Production And Binary Perception Before I Even Knew What Those Terms Meant. "Something Special" Was My Favorite Song And "Velas" Was So Smooth, And A Phat Chord Progression Clinic.This Album Changed My Life As I Wanted To Produce Music From That Point.

My Prayers Go Out To The Entire Family Of Quincy Jones. Thank You Quincy Jones For All Of Your Contributions To The Music Industry.
