Guest MBarrett Posted September 15, 2016 Posted September 15, 2016 It's fairly mainstream but there is the whole King and Queen album - Otis Redding and Carla Thomas. Just one representative track here. You know that man's voice is not so much a voice - more a musical instrument!
Guest johnny hart Posted September 15, 2016 Posted September 15, 2016 Motown Duets; "Let's Make Love Now" = Art Posey and Honey Sessions( plus Levi and Jeans Vers) "It Must Be Love Baby"= Chuck Jackson and Yvonne Fair. " Don't Knock My Love = Marvin and Lady Di. . ( those horns do remind m of Ian's "Reachin') Great Topic,should run and run.! "
Sjclement Posted September 15, 2016 Posted September 15, 2016 Sorry Ian but this is the Jimmy & Vella track for me can only imagine what it would have been like to see this live, superb percussion and an old Torch song if I remember correctly.
