Jerry Moss made A&M a legendary, artist focused record co. Together with his equally legendary partner, Herb Alpert, they released the 1st @veryspecialxmas album, 1987. They never charged @SpecialOlympics a $ for all that work. We shared many great times. Respect to his family.

We are deeply saddened by the passing of Sinead O'Connor, a profoundly influential artist who contributed to the @veryspecialxmas Vol. 2 album. Her impact on the music industry was indelible. https://t.co/LCe8uyHncw

We are deeply saddened by the passing of Anita Pointer, founding member of the Pointer Sisters. Her contribution to the music industry was profound, including "Santa Claus Is Coming To Town" - the very first track on the original 1987 AVSC album. @PointerOfficial
