This is a 1980 hit from “The Dude“ written by Stevie Wonder sung by Grammy Winner of 2008 Best Jazz Vocal Patti Austin. She is doing all the background vocals on three of her four tracks from The Dude which are Betcha’ Wouldn’t Hurt Me, Somethin’ Special, Razzamatazz and Turn On The Action. Somethin’ Special uses male backgrounds. She didn’t sing an actual duet with James Ingram who was heavily featured and won a Grammy for The Dude until her Every Home Should Have One album released February of 1981 It was “Baby, Come To Me“. Patti also did a duet with Luther Vandross on the album that Quincy released before “The Dude“ “Sounds... And Stuff Like That!!“ and that song was “I’m Gonna Miss You In The Morning.“ Can you tell I’m a fan? Patti Austin group:
