 For the record, the lead vocals are credited to Valerie Simpson, Nick Ashford & Chaka Khan on "Stuff Like That".

| I always felt it was a little strange that Quincy Jones got all the credit, when he was (merely) the producer/arranger of the album.You normally expect the named artist to either be lead singer or strongly featured instrumentalist. Most other producers/record labels would have given the project a name and seen how far that would go. There a quite a few examples where a 'studio' band became a fully fledged group with a longish recording career. |

| I agree with you, Quinny...my strongest case in point was with Randy Crawford's "Street Life." I always felt that The Crusaders were background, but the record label didn't focus on her until after the song became a huge hit, however, the record is still credited solely to them.

| Is this the same version featured in the latest GAP commercial? Dude dancing solo and doing serious moves to showcase those 'loose' jeans?

| Call me old-fashioned, but as much as I love Stuff Like That, some of Quincy's other 'stuff' is equally good but overlooked e.g. Love I Never Had It So Good, Razzmatazz, I'm Gonna Miss You In The Morning & Bodyheat. Generally these tracks featured singers like Luther V & Patti Austin but there were many other talented performers on there too so why should singers get so much credit? Surely, without writers & producers none of the music discussed on this site would exist. Gosh, I'm getting a bit heavy here arent I? I think all the Ja Rule & Eminem on MTV at the gym tonight depressed me.
