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

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! :)
