[karlc37]

I am the acoustic bass player in the video. J was very respectful and a professional to work for. RIP J

[YoungBassist72]

@karlc37 Hey, I came across this and saw you were the bass player on this song. I really like the album Chimera. I'm sorry to have learned he passed about 6 years ago.

Please post J.Spencer's "Thinking about You" video

[TaurusNoBull]

He was also in a movie,"Out of Sync", with LL Cool J. There was a scene in the movie at a club and in the middle of the dance floor was a guy playing a saxophone with a white Kangol on. That was J. Spencer.

[Tballance74]

[harmonogram84]

jazz-rap to gwarancja wysokiego poziomu.peace:)

[telka3013]

One of the unknown pioneers that blended Jazz with Hip Hop (not Rap thank you). Even today his album Chimera is still a head bobber.

[Noxcer]

rap is the music..

hip hop is the culture.. so youre statement does not make sense..

[telka3013]

It's obvious you didn't listen to the album because most of it talks about blending HIP HOP WITH JAZZ. Listen and take some notes before you speak youngster. I lived it while you're just reading the history book thinking you know it. The album's called Chimera don't download it, go buy it, read the linear notes and educate yourself.

[Noxcer]

I am not correcting you about what he rapped about.

You said that he blended Jazz with Hip Hop, not Rap. But Hip Hop is a culture, containing more than just the music. It also includes B boying, tagging, beat boxing, and scratching. Rap is simply just the music.

[Jcmeuzzik]

Check this band on myspace... They do Jazz Hip Hop........ pretty hot.... Myspace "dot" com /TheBlackRoseNoise

[therealflamelit]

my fav was thinkin about you with the guy singin on it ... r.i.p j spence..

[myfunklast]

man thats sad news  about JAY respect

[AKATee]

Just found out today he's no longer with us. After some research, found out he passed away back in July/2005. I feel awful. He's one of my all time favorites... RIP

[Tony1TAKE]

I loved this song this album it inspire while I was in college studying music at Denver University..

[marcdaddy33]

Real real cool. I don't like the Kenny G sound too much. But outside of that, real chill song.

[RCBIFE]

Wow! I'm just finding about that J. Spencer died. I remember him for his hit "Hot Pants". Although it may be a little late, I'm in shock. May he R.I.P.

[3811iberis]

I liked this track the moment I first heard this way back in 1993, the perfect hybrid of hip hop and jazz. J Spencer was very overlooked as a jazz artist, but people who know what his talents were appreciate what he contibuted to music, R.I.P., music misses you.

[Dywanne73]

Jeffrey Spencer McCormick, who under the moniker J. Spencer got to live his dream of being a professional musician, died July 9 at his Pleasanton home. He was 36.
