Excellent work from the incomparable Quincy Jones. "If I Ever Lose This Heaven is taken from his 1974 album "Body Heat" which was produced by Q and legendary bassist Ray Brown and features vocals by Minnie Riperton, Leon Ware and Al Jarreau.

  • OMG... I was in love with a fabulous young man who got killed in a mistaken identity situation in 1975 - THIS was our SONG. Minnie's version was what I would sing to him but, this was OUR private time SONG.

  • @tresinga Actually Leon Ware wrote it. He also wrote Minnie Riperton's "Inside my Love." "I wanna be where you are" for Michael Jackson, and damn near the entire "I want you" album for Marvin Gaye. Quincy probably did produce it though.

  • I think this song is trying to represent what sexual pleasure SOUNDS like in music.

  • Love it, love it love it!

  • My grandfather was a good friend of Quincy's at Garfield way back when.. My grandfather played sax and boxed but ended up down a crooked path. He was a good man, just a little misguided.. But I'm proud of him regardless and this music helps me feel a little more connected to him.

  • <3 what more can be said

  • Man, this song just blows me away

    

  • That's Love for you.

  • They just don't make music like this anymore. ; o ( Bless you my brother and sister yall sure sound gooooooooooooood!

  • yep it's Quincy Jones baby

  • This is the work of a master! A lesson in arranging and studio recording, not to mention the ability to get so many talented artists together towards one beautiful musical creation! Q, you are truly awesome!

  • One of the most brilliant songs ever recorded!
