"When you talk about Quincy Jones , evidently your mind gets crowded with a great number of musicians , artists, singers , songs, tunes, soundtracks, TV themes, that has been part of the career of this man, that for a generation is best known; since the end of the seventies, as the success creator of the now less popular M. Jackson.

He is more than that , a good musician , a best producer a very opinionated artist about racism and one of those artist that has gather in his latest works, the proud of the black american culture and has always showed interest for going ahead.

Listen Up! The soundtrack of an interesting documentary about his life, and in a way the soundtrack of his life , since the begining of his musical career till the time when "Back on the Block" appeard , the record that was his comeback, including outstanding colaborators, singers , musicians , artist from , jazz, rythim and blues, soul, rap. Dizzy Gillespie, Sarah Vaughan, Ice T , Chaka Kahn and many more.

Listen Up! the music , the voices of Sinatra, Miles Davis, Ray Charles , a medley with many of his hits. Remember "Find One Hundred Ways" with James Ingram?

Perhaps for some of us, his fans , we will be glad to see it back in CD and DVD."
