Last month, we lost the legend that was Quincy Jones. He knew just about everyone in the music industry as well as outside it and had worked with the world’s biggest stars. He had done virtually everything in the music industry including attending his own memorial concert.
Between 1963 and 2015, he produced 49 UK hit single of which 31 made the top 20. Here’s is his top 20 list.
