A true musical genius ! And his idea for Beat it to have Eddie Van Halen on it.
You can't overstate his genius. Many people bring up Michael Jackson, but Q produced so much more. My personal favorite is Frank Sinatra's rendition of Fly Me to the Moon, which as you may know was heavily associated with the Apollo space program
Picture of Q presenting platinum copies of Frank's album to legendary NASA astronauts John Glenn and Apollo 11 Commander Neil Armstrong
But you had to play it cool, had to do it your way Had to be a fool, had to throw it all away
