Name a record with a single dude song on it.

Did Concrete Blonde ever do this?

I'm not sure if there is an example where they limit it to just one song, but Deerhoof comes to mind

― too young for seapunk (Moodles)

i think the Saunier sometimes mimics/augments Satomi's vocals, so it's difficult to distinguish him.. he def sings on "Cast off Crown," on Friend Opportunity

not a lead, but iirc "Prisstina" offa One Beat features what I think is the only male vocal (Stephen Trask) on a Sleater-Kinney album. ("Angry Inch" w/ Fred Schneider doesn't count.)

The Mollys - Hat Trick ("That's All You Do" is the guy song)

slightly different from op in that it's a majority-female band, but:

Excuse 17 - Such Friends Are Dangerous ("Decatur H.S.")

Frank Infante sings co-lead on Blondie's "I Know But I Don't Know" from Parallel Lines

Greg Deerhoof sings the lead on Top Tim Rubies from the Reveille LP
Have a feeling that the guitarist in The Primitives sang lead on one song as well
I think a similar thing happened on Komeda LPs as well but it's been a while since I listened to them

Primitives guy sings the lead on 'All The Way Down' from Pure I think? can't remember if he sang on any other tracks

I was going to suggest Komeda but I think there are dual vocals on a lot of the songs, and maybe more than one male lead song on most? I still listen to tracks of theirs a lot but not so much the whole albums so yeah, my memory is sort of hazy.

had a quick flick thru Komeda albums and yep one song on each of "Genius Of Komeda" and "What Makes It Go" are sung by the male guitarist dude. This thing is like a mini "I've Got My Own Album To Do"!

oh David Roback sings lead on only one song on Opal's Early Recordings album, its more of a comp than an album proper but its one of my fav albums ever so shut up it counts alright?

Freakwater - Springtime. The one dude sings Harlan & it's very good.

Lil Kim - Hard Core ("Crush on You")

le jardin de heavenly ('c is the heavenly option')

Liquorice - Listening Cap: Breaking the Ice (and also Tsunami - World Tour...: Walking Tour, but that's a comp)
Velocity Girl - Copacetic: Lisa Librarian

Primitives guy sings the lead on 'All The Way Down' from Pure I think? can't remember if he sang on any other tracks

I know he sings "Lazy", which is on the singles comp.

PJ Harvey's Let England Shake has Mick Harvey sing the last song.

Frank Farian does the lead vocals on 'Baby Do You Wanna Bump' off the first Boney M album. He does do backing vocals on some of the rest of it though ('Daddy Cool' obv)

Blake Babies' Sunburn. "Girl in a Box" is the only one where Juliana Hatfield doesn't sing lead.

Primitives guy sings on "Shadow" too. Those are some of their best songs imo.

Sorry, not "Shadow", "Noose".

in the 60's in bands with female singers the dude would always do the one faux olde-tyme/cornpone/stupid song on the album. and try to ruin the album.

That Blake Babies song is like the prime example of this.
