An enormous commercial success, 1981's THE DUDE is a cross-cultural success blending jazz, Latin music, soul ballads, and straight pop into an admittedly slick but never over-produced or soulless stew. The album opens with a surprise; "Ai No Corrida" is a synthesizer-driven yet still funky Latin dance track written by Chaz Jankel of Ian Dury and the Blockheads, suggesting that unlike a lot of musicians his age, Quincy Jones kept his ears open to new music.

The proto-rap title track accomplishes the same thing. The rest of the album is more conventional, with James Ingram and Patti Austin trading vocals on a smooth collection of tracks highlighted by the masterful love ballads "One Hundred Ways" and "Just Once," staples of adult-contemporary stations, and the haunting Stevie Wonder-penned instrumental "Velas." THE DUDE is an outstanding collection that was massively influential on the '80s R&B scene.

Recorded at Westlake Audio, Los Angeles, California.

3 stars Quincy Jones is a legand
I heard this album when I was 6 years old in 1981. Im 30 yrs old now and this album still gives me the same good feeling. Maybe even a btter feeling now. The music and lyrics, choruses, arangements, vicals, backgrounds and some of the best ever to be recorded. The new artists hav nothing on this album.

5 stars Fantastic Album
Bought the vinyl in 1981. Grew up listening to this gem. Fantastic music. QJ is genius. But the real credit must be given: "Velas" is a song penned by brazilians Ivan Lins & Vitor Msrtins, not by Stevie Wonder.
