 (4 Customer Reviews)
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 ... Full DescriptionCorrida" 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.

Dude Music Review Average Rating: (4.3 out of 5 stars)   Fantastic
I love this album! I was introduced to it a year or two after it's release in 1981 and loved it immediately. This has a real jazz/ laid back r&b sound. I highly recommend it.

 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.

| | Kylie Minogue Fever CD (2002) (Import) Bonus Tracks; Japan
Dude CD music
$41.99
The 2002 enhanced Japan-only version features four additional tracks and two videos.
It's more than just journalistic shorthand to refer to Kylie Minogue as the European Madonna. She's been at it as long as the Material Girl, and her mix of sexy style and dance-pop sound is very much in league with that of her American counterpart. The catch here is that, while Minogue had previously only been a star in Europe, FEVER represents her American breakthrough. Not surprisingly, the sound of FEVER will appeal to fans of Madonna's MUSIC album. It's full of bubbly synths, amiably poppy melodies, club beats and sensual vocal stylings. If anything, Minogue comes off as slightly less hard-edged than you-know-who, more concerned with immersing herself in the songs and production than in projecting her larger-than-life personality. That kind of attitude can only aid in the making of a successful pop record, which is the most accurate description of FEVER.
Japan exclusive 'Special Edition' of the Aussie diva's hit 2001 album features 16 audio tracks including 4 bonus cuts, 'Good Like That', 'Baby', 'Boy' & 'Butterfly'. Also included on this Japanese edition is a bonus enhanced element featuring videos for 'Can't Get You Out Of My Head' & 'In Your Eyes'. 2002.
This is an Enhanced CD, which contains both regular audio tracks and multimedia computer files.
