Jones 'Too Busy' For Jackson

Legendary music producer QUINCY JONES has turned down the chance to work on MICHAEL JACKSON's comeback album, because he's too busy. Jones produced Jackson's classic albums Off The Wall (79), Thriller (82), and Bad (87). But as Jackson prepares to launch his comeback following his acquittal on child molestation charges in 2005, Jones insists he won't be contributing to the album. He says, "Man please, I've got enough to do. We already did that. I have talked to him about working with him again but I've got too much to do. I've got 900 products. I'm 74 years old. Give me a break."
