The Dude is a 1981 studio album released and recorded by Quincy Jones. Jones utilized a lengthy list of studio musicians to perform the tracks.
Three singles were released from the album, all of which charted on the U.S. Top 40. "Just Once" and "One Hundred Ways" feature vocalist James Ingram's debut and reached No. 17 and 14, respectively, on the Billboard Hot 100. The album gained heavy dance airplay for lead single "Ai No Corrida", which reached No. 28 on the Top 40. The album also contains "Razzamatazz" which reached No. 11 on the UK Singles Chart, one of Jones's few hits in that country.
The Dude was nominated for twelve Grammy Awards (including Album of the Year) and won three: for Best Instrumental Arrangement; Best R&B Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal; and Best Instrumental Arrangement (Accompanying Vocalists). It also earned Ingram three Grammy nominations for Best New Artist, Best Male Pop Vocal Performance (for "Just Once") and Best Male R&B Vocal Performance (for "One Hundred Ways"), which he won at the 24th Grammy Awards.
