| Quincy Jones Interview QJ’s comments strike me as the kind of things that a person suffering from dementia makes. Impulsive, angry, without constructive purpose. What’s the goal here? After such a brilliant career, he wants to be remembered for a handful of self-indulge... | |
| Diana Krall Rpeluso, - Nyro’s dad was a jazz bass player- to me, the connection to Krause is obvious and I’ve stated it already. The only thing that I might have left unsaid is that I think of Krauss as a jazz-tinged pop singer, like Nyro, not the other way a... | |
