OPRAH'S Q JOOK JOINT??



So I've spent the last hour trying to understand what the television show Oprah At Q's Jook Joint was. My best guess (which is as good as yours, once you watch the video) is that it was a small-time R&B/Hip-Hop show that aired in the 90's, but never made it far.

Not so coincidentally, Q's Jook Joint was the name of an album by Quincy Jones that got put out in 1995. Looking at the back of Oprah's stage, one would think Quincy had a hand in the design.

In the video above, Take 6, Brian McKnight, and Patti Austin sing a super dope jazz cut, originally by man King Pleasure (below). It's dreamier than the Charlie Brown christmas jams.
