Over the next four decades, he would emerge as their most trusted vocal arranger. Tom's influence echoes in the early Motown recordings with Michael, the iconic "Off the Wall" album (of which Tom was the Associate Producer), and the legendary "We Are the World," among others. Notably, Tom is the gifted songwriter behind one of Michael's cherished ballads, "She's Out of My Life." In this conversation, you'll discover what it was like to witness Michael sing songs well beyond his years and learn about his surprising passion for subjects like Da Vinci. Michael's studio reluctance and the relationship he had with Berry Gordy will also be unveiled. Furthermore, you'll gain insights into Tom's experiences with Joe Jackson, father and manager of the Jackson 5, shedding light on their interactions. Quincy Jones, too, emerges as one of Tom's closest friends and mentors, imparting numerous life lessons from this living legend, some of which he graciously shares with us. 00:00 Meeting Quincy Jones 04:44 First Arrangement for Quincy "Everything Must Change" 07:44 Michael was a DiVinci Scholar 09:01 Arranging Vocals for Motown 13:49 Working with the Jackson 5 14:26 Meeting Teenage Michael for the 1st time 24:59 Michael Leaned from Barry Gordy 25:41 Barry Didn't Want to Sign the Jackson 5 26:10 Jackson 5 and Joe Jackson Stories 30:16 Michael Wanted to Be a Normal Child 31:24 Tom and John Most Trusted Vocal Arrangers ____________________________________ *ABOUT ANTHONY* Anthony's musical touch as both composer and performer is connected with some of the most influential creative minds over the last 40 years.
