How Old Is Quincy Jones? You Wouldn't Guess It by Looking at Him

Sep 24 2018 - 10:45am

The new Netflix documentary [1] Quincy just dropped on the streaming platform. It's a look inside the life and career [2] of Quincy Jones [3], the trailblazing and award-winning musician and producer (and father to [4] comedy queen Rashida Jones, who directs the doc). Over the course of his career, Jones has worked with the likes of Frank Sinatra, Aretha Franklin [5], Michael Jackson [6], and John Legend [7]. That's a career that spans a pretty wide swath of music history, so how old is Jones, anyway?

Born on March 14, 1933, Jones is thriving at the age of 85. He hasn't shown any signs of slowing down, either. Although he's no longer producing on the same scale as he used to, he continues to produce documentaries and speak out about the causes that interest him. Jones is a bona fide legend, and we only hope our achievements are as amazing as his by the time we're 85! Check out some of Jones's highlights past and present below.
