    20 FAVE DUET RECORDS

    TODAY........FROM 1960

    1. CATHY’S CLOWN – THE EVERLY BROTHERS https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mV6w3LTxMP8

    One of their very biggest hits self penned by the brothers #1 on both
    sides of the pond—and their 1st for Warner Bros (and WB's UK debut)

    2. WHEN WILL I BE LOVED – THE EVERLY BROTHERS https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dmtzQjS9Z2A

    Did any act ever leave such a valuable number behind after jumping ship
    to another label? #8 US/#5 UK

    3. NIGHT TIME IS THE RIGHT TIME – RAY CHARLES (MARGIE HENDRIX) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rjl-61ZuAto

    Superb live version of his famous number from 1958 recorded at a concert
    in Atlanta Ga in May 1959

    4. GEE BABY – JOE & ANN
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9OhizQ2mx4s

    Irresistible duet from Joe Joseph and Ann Cole recorded for Johnny
    Vincent at Ace Records.#14BBr&b

    5. A ROCKIN’ GOOD WAY (TO MESS AROUND AND FALL IN LOVE) – DINAH
    WASHINGTON & BROOK BENTON
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2a4GNQ_dvHs

    Wonderful revival of the number originally introduced by Priscilla
    Bowman (and the Spaniels) in 1958. #7BBpop #1BBr&b

    6. YOU’VE GOT THE POWER – JAMES BROWN (BEA FORD) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uvxB3Yr-Ik4

    Nearing the end of his tenure on Federal label here’s a great duet
    between Soul Bro #1 and Bea Ford. #86BBpop #14BBr&b

    7. BIG TIME SPENDER – CORNBREAD & BISCUITS https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9jNijwPXBPg

    Excellent comedic monologue on Maske similar to some humorous Bo Diddley things.In real life these guys were Hank Gibson & Joe Battles

    8. BABY (YOU’VE GOT WHAT IT TAKES) – DINAH WASHINGTON & BROOK BENTON https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9qHocO2Ipmk

    Much superior remake of the Dorothy Pay number from 1958 this was the
    first Dinah/Brook collaboration. #5 BBpop #1BBr&b

    9. YOU DRINK TOO MUCH BOOZE – JIMMY RANEY & SLIM SLAUGHTER https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UWm1VUZJPJk

    On Jo-Dee label I was told this was a Pittsburgh Porky Chedwick fave--I
    got hooked the first time I ever heard it.

    10. PRETTY BABY ROCK – JIM MYERS & TEX REGAN https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lnVX0dBoZdU

    Strident rockin’ countrified number recorded by the duo on the Fortune
    label showing that Devora & co did dabble in other genres

    11. SO SAD (TO WATCH GOOD LOVE GO BAD) – THE EVERLY BROTHERS https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YXeKMZMnoFI

    Don Everly penned this immediate followup weeper to “Cathy’s Clown” on Warner Bros. #7 BBpop #5 UK

    12. BLUES STAY AWAY FROM ME – DORSEY & JOHNNY BURNETTE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oA3vZb-nP88

    1956 track by the Rock ‘N’ Roll Trio revives the Delmore Bros country classic that got missed for release until this Coral single in 1960

    13. YOU’RE THE BOSS – LaVERN BAKER & JIMMY RICKS https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vwBInEhspEA

    Despite what the YT clip says this is from December 1960 great duet by
    LaVern & Jimmy later revived by Elvis & Ann-Margret

    14. CAUSE I LOVE YOU – CARLA & RUFUS https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nmzQR-1QLmM

    On the original Satellite label (before it became Stax) a great duet
    here from Rufus Thomas and daughter Carla

    15. LIKE STRANGERS – THE EVERLY BROTHERS https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6h6xbW1SzVE

    From the last Cadence recording session in February 1960 this nice
    ballad preceded “When Will I Be Loved” in that session

    16. LOUISIANA MAN – RUSTY & DOUG
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J4bf-Dd5Xa4

    The original version of the country anthem recorded for Hickory. Take no
    notice of YT date this was out December 1960

    17. SPOONFUL – ETTA & HARVEY
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aZGGWvtKVsg

    On Chess the good second ever version of “Spoonful” following the great Howlin’ Wolf original released a few months earlier

    18. GONNA WORK OUT FINE – MICKEY & SYLVIA (UNRELEASED) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tIuYv45qGq8

    The original version of the number that (with an “It’s” added) Ike &
    Tina Turner will take high in the charts the following year

    19, OH LOVER – SHERRI TAYLOR & SINGIN’ SAMMY WARD https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yYC7IKZTe9U

    I make this decent r&b duet the tenth record released on the then brand
    new Motown label

    20. STICK WITH ME BABY – THE EVERLY BROTHERS https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qJ4HKzbwWj8

    Yeah I know it’s the flip of “Temptation” in 1961 but it was out first
    on the “Date With The Everly Brothers” LP in 1960

    Never heard of this one before, and it wasn't on Rosemont's site, but it
    will be soon.

    9. YOU DRINK TOO MUCH BOOZE – JIMMY RANEY & SLIM SLAUGHTER https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UWm1VUZJPJk

    Never heard of this one either, it's good. There's a better sounding one
    on YT.

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AlNsvxO0PLA


    10. PRETTY BABY ROCK – JIM MYERS & TEX REGAN https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lnVX0dBoZdU

    Another good one I did not know that is being added to the files.

    12. BLUES STAY AWAY FROM ME – DORSEY & JOHNNY BURNETTE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oA3vZb-nP88

    I recently realized this was not released until 1960 and moved it there.


    16. LOUISIANA MAN – RUSTY & DOUG https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J4bf-Dd5Xa4

    I get it now. The record collector in you likes to use the video that
    shows the original 45 even though there may be another one that sounds a
    little better.

    23. HEAVENLY BABY – ALLEN & ALLEN

    Another good one I did not have. I know it's a Toussaint thing, but who
    is the other Allen?

    24. LIKE YOU USED TO DO – SHIRLEY & LEE

    I'm gonna keep an MP3, but it's way too produced and with a big
    orchestra. Does have a pretty good sax break though.

    25. ALWAYS IT’S YOU – THE EVERLY BROTHERS

    My first DJ job in 1979 on Wednesdays in a dump called Shortway's
    Frankie C. requested this and I told him I didn't have it. He wasn't
    happy when he later saw that I did have it. Did not want to play an off
    record like this that nobody else in the place would know. Frank was off Wednesdays at the time but working the other 6 nights at various places.

    That should be "odd record" like this, although it did chart.

    With that guy, always it's obscurities. Typical collector.

    Roger is as much of a collector as Frank, yet he vastly prefers the hits
    and the classics over most odd records.

    "Tiddle Winks." It's not as good as HB.

    All individual opinions on here about the quality of records of any kind
    are subjective and open to challenge of course they are.

    OTOH a statement like "Elvis recorded for RCA" is OBJECTIVE and can't be challenged

    Sorry, but what we see (or hear or taste or smell) is not necessarily objective. An objective statement is purely factual and provable. Our senses can give us only subjective info since a) we can't demonstrate that they're

    So you can't say that a statement is objective until you research
    whether or not it's factual and provable?

    And this can change over time, like at one time if you said "Pluto is a
    planet in our solar system" that would have been factual and provable 50
    years ago, but now the scientific community has said that Pluto is not a planet.

    Read again. I said that our senses generally aren't reliable when it comes to objectivity. If one person says it's red and another says it's purple the argument has to stop since there is no "objective" way for them discover who

    So you can't say that a statement is objective until you research
    whether or not it's factual and provable?

    Read again. I said that our senses generally aren't reliable when it
    comes to
    objectivity. If one person says it's red and another says it's purple
    the

    And this can change over time, like at one time if you said "Pluto is a >>>>> planet in our solar system" that would have been factual and provable 50 >>>>> years ago, but now the scientific community has said that Pluto is not a >>>>> planet.

    This is merely a matter of definition being changed by the scentists.
    Pluto,
    and our "objective" ideas about how big it is and what it's orbit is
    remain
    unchanged.

    Other objective facts can change every day, for instance the transfer
    rate between dollars and English pounds. On a Sunday when markets are
    closed it may be a certain number all day, but sure to change by Monday
    night, even if only slightly.

    Now you've got it. It is an objective fact that time changes things.

    Is it an objective fact that Geoff is a white supremacist?

    LMAO!

    Diane and I often disagree on colors. She'll say something is red and I
    will say that it's maroon. We are both being objective, but see it differently.

    But in reality there is only ONE objective view here.

    Your object is either red or maroon

    One of you is right and the other needs an optician :)

    I think Roger and I both missed this one:

    122 ¦ My Baby ¦ Ray Charles

    Yep I certainly overlooked a classic duet here

    It's a 8 for me and #106 on my 1960 faves list--and like record label
    credited just to Ray Charles--which means it should have appeared on the
    1960 Fave Duets list at #7 in between "You've Got The Power" and "Big
    Time Spender"

    Obviously everything below on the list drops one place

    Meaning that #25 on the posted list ("Always It's Tou") drops off the
    listing

    Thanks for spotting this
