McDonald was born in Los Angeles at White Memorial Hospital on February 24, 1945. While music brought him around the world, Los Angeles remained his home where he resided in Toluca Lake. In 2013, McDonald moved to and resided in Las Vegas, NV until his death.<\/span><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>An exceptional talent in a league all his own, the Grammy-winning artist laid claim to a profound musical career spanning 50+ years. With commitment, intelligence, generosity, humility, and his signature groove, Clarence McDonald had a hand in creating some of the most memorable music since the late 1960s.<\/p>\n<p>McDonald\u2019s production, writing and arranging credits include collaborations with The Emotions, Freddie Hubbard, Patti Labelle, Friends of Distinction, the 5<sup>th<\/sup> Dimension, Johnny Mathis, Billy Preston, Stanley Turrentine, the Whispers, the Memphis Horns, David T. Walker, Michael Lington, Euge Groove, Deniece Williams, Nancy Wilson and Bill Withers.<\/p>\n<p>As a keyboardist comfortable playing all genres of music, McDonald recorded with a long list of music legends including Ray Charles, Ella Fitzgerald, Hall &amp; Oates, the Jackson Five, Seals &amp; Crofts, James Taylor, Marlena Shaw, Barbra Streisand, the Temptations, Al Wilson, Aretha Franklin, Tina Turner, Linda Ronstadt and Justin Timberlake among many others.<\/p>\n<p>A highlight of his career was producing The Emotions Platinum Album \u201cRejoice\u201d with Maurice White which included Billboard #1, Grammy-winning \u201cBest of My Love.\u201d He made songwriting contributions to the Platinum album, \u201cThis is Niecy\u201d by Deniece Williams. He co-produced Bill Withers\u2019 Gold album, \u201cMenagerie\u201d including Billboard #1 \u201cLovely Day.\u201d He collaborated with Ray Charles on the album \u201cGenius Loves Company\u201d arranging and playing keyboards for the Grammy-winning song \u201cHeaven Help Us All.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Clarence considered himself truly blessed with wonderful friends and mentors throughout his life. He was fortunate to have been guided and taught by many special people, including his father, Curtis McDonald; music legend, Ray Charles; piano legend, Eubie Blake; and singer, songwriter and minister, O.C. Smith.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>With Clarence on his life\u2019s journey for the past 18 years, was his wife Susan McDonald. Susan was Clarence\u2019s best friend, constant companion, fierce advocate and dedicated partner. &nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>We will always remember Clarence\u2019s wonderful talent, magnificent smile, modesty, quick wit and love of life. He touched not only all those he knew but also everyone who loved his musical genius.<\/p>\n<p>The outpouring of love and support from friends, fans and the entire music community has been stirring and heartwarming.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe thing that always remained consistent was the standard of excellence provided by Clarence McDonald.\u201d &#8211; Sonny Burke, Pianist, Writer, Arranger, Musical Director for Smokey Robinson for 35 years<\/p>\n<p>\u201cProducing fusion albums at RCA in the 1970s, I first had the fine pleasure of working with and getting to know Clarence McDonald, a very adept session keyboard player and arranger. We were close friends for the next 45 years, allowing me to appreciate his warmth, musicality and deep intelligence.
