Quincy Jones: No One To Blame for Jackson Death |
| Sep 10 2010 |
Legendary producer Quincy Jones has offered his thoughts on the unexpected death last year of Michael Jackson. He tells UK’s The Guardian that no one can really be blamed for the overdose that killed the 50-year old King of Pop. "There was no way to know. There's no way anybody could be blamed for what happened. Artists of [Jackson's] stature - they can do whatever they want. You'd have to monitor him 24/7 to know what's going on." Jackson’s physician, Dr. Conrad Murray, has been charged with involuntary manslaughter for administering the anaesthetic Propofol to the singer. Jones, who worked with Jackson on Off the Wall, Thriller and Bad, said he felt guilty for not seeing the singer before his death. "I was in London when he sold out the 10 concerts, and then sold out 40 more. He called me. He wanted to bring the kids over. But I was with Mohamed Al Fayed at his place. I said, 'I'll see you in Los Angeles'. And that was the last time I talked to him."
