Nominated for 12 Grammy Awards, including a win for Jones for Producer of the Year, Quincy's 1981 album 'The Dude' was simply one of the tightest realizations of his talents: orchestration, arranging, sequencing, his ear for anticipating new sounds, and ability to assemble an knock-out team of musicians, writers and engineers. Quincy's work bridged, melded and fused genres in ways that others couldn't do and with it's multi-faceted moods and complex arrangements 'The Dude' is a unique composite of bebop, jazz, funk, pop balladry and dance, with shades of African syncopation, quiet storm, and nods to the then-nascent hip-hop scene. Rolling in the pocket with Jones was an elite band of musicians that included Herbie Hancock, Greg Phillinganes and Stevie Wonder on keys, Louis Johnson on bass, Jerry Hey on horn, Syreeta Wright and Michael Jackson providing background vocals, while star-making vocal performances come from Patti Austin and James Ingram.
