Editorial Reviews

"Dr. Clarence Bernard Henry has given to American music literature the most beautifully written treatise on the musical accomplishments of the great Quincy Jones. No one has explicated more thoroughly the prodigious, diverse, and unprecedented contributions of Quincy Jones. By doing so, Dr. Henry has proven that Quincy Jones is unequivocally one of America's foremost masters of music. This book is a literary masterpiece and should be required reading for all students of American and African American music history."

—Dr. Earl L. Stewart, associate professor in the Department of Black Studies at University of California, Santa Barbara, and author of African American Music: An Introduction
