When Rhino released\u00a0Q: The Musical Biography of Quincy Jones<\/em> – a 4CD, 74-track collection – in 2001, it was a valiant attempt to tell a story that was still being written. The gifted bandleader, composer and producer, who passed away at the age of 91 in 2024<\/a>, had an enduring way with sound, be it jazz, pop, R&B, rock or even film and television scoring. His decades of work with the 20th century’s greatest luminaries made him a tremendous (if controversial<\/a>) raconteur, with countless stories to tell and luminaries to work alongside.<\/p>\n Now, a new attempt to anthologize and memorialize the work of Q comes from a slightly unexpected direction: a new 20CD box set devoted primarily to his film scoring work, coming from Decca Records’ French series \u00c9coutez Le Cin\u00e9ma. Produced by St\u00e9phane Lerouge,\u00a0The Legacy of Quincy Jones<\/em> adds to a series of heavy-duty boxes for luminaries of cinema’s sound, including Ennio Morricone, Lalo Schifrin and John Williams<\/a>. Like those sets, it includes a wide berth of soundtracks, albums and standout tracks from multiple licensors, housed in a landscape-arranged, perfect-bound digibook with a 44-page booklet of liner notes offering interviews with Jones, discographical information, and photos.<\/p>\n
