In The Groove: A farewell to Quincy Jones, an introduction to Cleo Sol
Listen to “In the Groove” with Ryan Patrick Hooper weekdays from noon-3 p.m. ET on 101.9 WDET.
"In the Groove" host Ryan Patrick Hooper in WDET's studios in Detroit.
Coming into this week with a heavy heart as we say goodbye to Quincy Jones, a musician so massive in the American sonic landscape of music that just calling him a musician seems insulting. I loved what WDET’s own Chris Campbell wrote about Jones — you can read that here. For my part, I played original work from Jones, his arranging for Frank Sinatra, his early stuff with an equally young Ray Charles, his work with Sarah Vaughn and of course Michael Jackson, who he changed the landscape of pop music with.
On top of that, a spotlight on Cleo Sol, her remarkable voice and her new single “Fear When You Fly,” plus new releases from Friko, Royal Otis, Ezra Collective, Common Saints, Michael Kiwanuka and more.
