stature of Quincy Jones celebrates his 75th birthday you can be sure
it's going to be quite a party. The show took place on July 14th 2008

has a long and rich history, and the cream ofmusical talent turned up
to serenade 'Q' on this very special occasion. The main concert lasted
over two and a half hours and the musicians then spilled out into the
bars and cafes of Montreux with the music still going strong as the sun
was coming up the next morning! Performing songs and music
associated with Quincy throughout his long career, was an incredible
line-up of artists including: Patti Austin, Petula Clark, Billy Cobham,
Herbie Hancock, Mick Hucknall, Al Jarreau, Chaka Khan, Angelique
Kidjo, Beverley Knight, James Moody, Nana Mouskouri, Naturally 7,
