    Doesn't get much bigger in entertainment than this guy. He produced music from Michael Jackson to Frank Sinatra.

    Great run







    RIP

    his influence was immense.

    true story, back in the 90s, I went to a birthday party (I can't remember whose) at his house in LA. Howie Mandel MC'd.

    What a badass. The sheer volume of famous people and work he's been associated with throughout his life along with the works he's given us is incredible. And, of course, he also gave us the greatest sitcom theme song ever :

    The man was definitely iconic throughout the ages.

    Can he release his tell all autobiography or do we also have to wait for others to pass?

    Rest in Peace, a fully realized genius. Another one who maximized his human potential and talent, which is the highest compliment I can give.
