Rolling Stones Guns and Roses Adele Jimi Hendrix Johnny Cash Cher (for that alone Stiffy should love him! Lol) Dolly Parton Joan Baez The Byrds I don't know stats but I'd guess he is up there with the most prolific song writers of all time... G&R covering Clapton knocking on heaven's door is on of my favourite tracks. I love the righteous brothers but can't listen to them anymore as I had to carry our kid down the aisle to unchained melody. Shame because I fuucking love that song but as soon as I hear it I flip out. The Mrs had an advert come on playing it the other day and her phone nearly went out of the window. Weird how music can evoque such emotion and different for each person. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Seagull 299 Posted July 23 Author Report Share Posted July 23 The Righteous Brothers are the best duet vocalists for me, baritone and tenor, a perfect match. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
