GREAT ROCK DUO'S
There is something naturally cool about two people creating great music. The pairing of two minds to create greatest music around can, at times, be a challenge, but as we hear, the rewards are plentiful and with a beauty all its own. Music duos have been a very important part of music history. Famous musical duos from the '50s and '60s wrote a lot of songs that would go on to be covered by many bands of many genres and became radio standards that are still played today. As a famous duo sang: "You Got Me Babe and I Got You" If you get two voices to connect harmoniously you will be rewarded with unforgettable songs. From the classic folk of Simon & Garfunkel to the indie rock of The White Stripes, duos have secretly reigned over popular music for many years. Whatever your musical preference is, there’s a duo available for you. Duos are generally less egotistical than a solo performer and are more intimate than a band. Musical duos exemplify a special harmony that creates a special type of intimacy. Many of these artists have stood the test of time despite some relationships being only temporary, and made music that cab be identified with them alone.
I hope the choices here are some of your favorites too. Enjoy!

Ahhh, ButterBoy - thank you for another fine compilation. And, as is often the case with your concepts, this one could be stretched out over several more CDs - you're particularly great at getting your music friends to not just listen, but also to _think_. Lead on, sir - cheers!
ReplyDeleteThank for you kind and generous words, Aging Child. Your always welcome here.
DeleteAw, shucks, Butter; you just have so many cool toys in your playroom - and the door's always open, too. Thanks for everything!
DeleteWarmest, A. Gene Childe
