Duets, any recommendations?

I've always had a soft spot for duets which I guess it stems from an early love of Sam and Dave, anyone got any recommendations of the less obvious ,any genre Northern , Deep etc

                  Cheers in advance

Ty Karim & George Griffin - Keep on doin' whatcha' doin'

William Bell & Mavis Staples - Love's sweet sensation / Strung out

Mel & Tim - Forever and a day / That's the way I want to live my life

Beverly & Duane - You belong to me / Love (+ all their other tracks!)

Theresa Davis & Jerry Butler - I can't stop (Lovin' you either)

Clifton Dyson & Gwen Matthews - I'm giving up / So lonely

Blue & Ferris - It's your turn to cry / Return to me

Church - How long....would love to know each of the male & female artists who sing the vocals on this gem if anyone knows?

Cheers, Steve

Maybe not so obvious these days " Ready, Willing and Able. J Holliday and Clyde King.  Still love it

                                                         The other Fortson and Scott on Pzazz, although they cant sing its a great tune and very playable

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! :)
