Quincy Jones, who died earlier this week, received a tribute from Saturday Night Live.

The venerable NBC show paid tribute to the musical legend, who died at the age of 91, with a card at the end of the show.

Jones had previously hosted SNL in February 1990. He was coming off the back of promoting his Back on the Block album and turned up with a lot of musical guests including Kool Moe Dee, Melle Mel and Quincy D III.

The 10 musical performers Jones brought with him is believed to have been the record for the show, one that stands to this day.

He also paid tribute to Nelson Mandela, who was set to be released from prison hours after the show, during his monologue.

Fun fact: Dana Carvey, who did an impression of Elon Musk on tonight’s show, was in the cast when Jones hosted.

Jones was a musician, composer, producer and songwriter whose oeuvre spanned seven decades including producing Michael Jackson’s Thriller to frequent collaborations with Frank Sinatra, producing the big-screen adaptation of The Color Purple, and composing some of the most memorable film and TV music ever.

He also convinced Miles Davis to record what would be Davis’ final album, Miles & Quincy: Live at Montreux, three months before the jazz great’s death in 1991.

A father of seven including Parks and Recreation and Angie Tribeca alum Rashida Jones, he wrote music and scores for dozens of films including In the Heat of the Night, In Cold Blood, Bob & Carol & Ted & Alice, The Out-of-Towners, They Call Me Mr. Tibbs and The Wiz.
