Fluxedo is the second album by dobro player Jerry Douglas, released in 1982 (see 1982 in music). The album's title comes from Douglas' nickname of "Flux". Fluxedo is out of print although all of the tracks can be found on the compilation Everything Is Gonna Work Out Fine.

The type of formal wear shown in the cover photo is actually not a tuxedo. A tuxedo, also known as black tie is a type of male semi-formal evening wear. The clothing outfit shown in the cover photo is a type of very-formal daytime wear, known as a morning suit or morning dress.
