Quincy Jones是一位横跨流行、R&B及黑人Rap音乐的天才音乐人。早在他得意于乐评及商业市场前的70年代之前，Quincy Jones便已经是在爵士乐界展露头角的知名好手。70年代后期，Quincy Jones开始转移其专业重心至流行音乐界，他扎实的音乐素养与当代流行品味的敏锐观察，让他的音乐事业更是大放异彩。
Quincy Jones是美国黑人音乐家和唱片业行政人员中最显著的代表。而且他对于音乐团体的影响也是不能不被高度评价的。作为音乐家，他的优秀作品包括“Back on the block(砖石背后)"(1990年获得格莱美年度专辑)和"The Dude (都市人) "。作为制作人，尽管他与Michael Jackson的合作最为突出，但在他的指引下，从Glen Campbell到Frank Sinatra，都获得了出色的成绩。同时他也是最早担任唱片公司副总裁的黑人之一，而且创办了他自己的Quest唱片公司。他还制作过电影“紫色”，创办了Vibe杂志和电视节目“Spin-off(旋转下降)"。Quincy已经成为天才音乐家和唱片业成功人士的一座丰碑。
本专辑名人荟萃，制作非凡
Tevin Campbell以13岁的稚龄，便参与演唱Quincy Jones的多白金葛莱美奖专辑「Back On The Block」，此举造就了他的首支冠军单曲 Tomorrow (A Better You, Better Me) 。接下来，他发行了个人首张专辑「T.E.V.I.N.」，创下百万销售量。其后的I’m Ready专辑、与广受乐评推崇的「Back To The World」专辑，都延续了成功的佳绩。
I’ll Be Good To You是RAY CHARLES为老友（相识于1948年）也是知名制作人昆西．琼斯的葛莱美得奖专辑「Back On The Block」跨刀之作。
Without a doubt one of the most influencial musicians for the past 50 years as of this writing, Quincy Jones is one of the best musicians that on this planet and remains a great influence on music to this day.
His 1989 magnum opus entitled "Back on The Block" is unrivalled by almost everything else. The sheer number of singers and other stars who came aboard for this project is impressive! Starring a huge cast of old-time singers some of whom have sadly since passed away, rappers, and then yet-to-be pop stars this incredible masterpiece is without a doubt a contender for being one of the smartest, most creative, and energetic albums anyone has ever put out. While I don’t want to sound too biased with this review but "Back On The Block" is my favorite African-American music album of all time. .
The party begins with a marvelous rap interlude entitled "Prologue (20’s rap scene/ Quincy’s Rap) which is a fun and energetic warm-up track featuring a wonderful rap dialogue that is really a lot of fun and highly joyous to listen. The title begins with a industrial metallic drum intro similar to that of the title track of Janet Jackson’s dynamite "Rhythm Nation" and becomes a marvelous and energetic blend of rap, hip-hop with a New Jack Swing Spice. "I Don’t Go For That" is similar to the previous and with a stadium-like New Jack Swing anthem with a fun Manhattan nighttime city feel. "I Don’t Go For That" is a wonderful New Jack Swing classic with a highly danceable beat, wonderful melody.
"The Verb To Be" is a really humorous interlude with oddly amplified voice effects and really funny lines. The laughing voices merge into the track "We Be Doing’ It". For all of the humor of "Verb" it perfect blends into the hip-hop rhythm and the song has a wonderful mix of R&B, blues, and dance all meshed together. If you’re looking for great hip-hop music and for a testament for 1988-1991 being the Golden Era of this once-great genre, look no further. "The Place You Find Love" is one of my absolute favorite tracks on this album. It starts with a dramatic echoing Gospel voice and becomes a powerful Gospel anthem for the ages. The vocals by whoever is singing are absolutely incredible and do wonders for this track.
The next two-some track combo "Jazz Corner of the World" and "Birdland" to me are the apex of this album. "Jazz Corner" has a really perky Brazilian percussion and has a really cool hip rap verse. The groove of "Jazz Corner" perfectly merges into my absolute favorite song on this album "Birdland". This is without a doubt the best song Quincy has ever recorded and quite likely a candidate for the best cover-song I’ve ever listened to. With amazing bass lines and energetic trumpet horns similar from what one would hear from Phil Collins, the beat is just amazing and the song has a really awesome groove unrivalled by few other songs from 1989. "Septembro" is a sultry soulful instrumental jazz song with really unique chord shift and wonderful wordless vocals.
"One Man Woman" is a great and energetic dance song with a strong New Jack Swing style. "Tomorrow" is sheer and utter beauty featuring a barely teenaged then future-superstar Tevin Campbell singing on vocals and childrens choir. The song has a really positive, cheerful, and uplifting vibe to it.
The final track Secret Garden is one of the sexiest soul ballads of all time with a very Quiet Storm mood and featuring guest vocals from the late R&B crooner Barry White (I cried at the news of his passing) the create a beautiful nighttime closer to this illustrious masterpiece of an album.
This album is just about on the border of being utmost perfection. For all of the hard-work put into it’s making this is without a doubt one of the greatest achievements in popular, rock, hip-hop, and rap music history. As of writing this review, I am absolutely horrified to see the term "Out of Stock" actually on this product! For such a stunning achievement that took so much work and was such a huge hit, I for one cannot believe that Warner Brothers don’t even carry this album in their catalog anymore! What a terrible disgrace to music history, by denying many fans one of the most positive, smartest, most well-crafted albums that has ever been released.
Wherever you go, I highly urge you to hunt for a copy of this album and buy it without hesitation. If not, then you have no idea of the party that you might find yourself missing out on. Quite simply there’s no other album like this nor will there ever be.
