Paul McCartneyremembered the supremely talentedQuincy Jonesin a tribute to thelate musician and producershared on Instagram.
Dear Quincy Jones has passed and left those of us who knew him feeling sad, McCartney wrote.
He was supremely talented, and I felt privileged to have known him for many years.
He noted Jones legendary work with Jackson, as well as all the other strings to his musical bow.
But it is as a friend I would like to remember him.
We send our love and sympathies to his family and all his many friends.
Hes totally out of his tree.
But the great thing was, he rang me after this.
Id only heard about it and Id thought, Im not sure its true.
The joke is, I love Quincy, even after this.
I never said that.
You know I love you guys!
I said, If you had said that, you know what I would have said?
Fuck you, Quincy Jones!
