We all remember the great duets. Save Your Love by Renee and Renato, Welcome Home by Peters and Lee, Orville’s Song by Keith Harris & Orville The Duck. But the art of the duet also has its place in rock’n’roll. Two legendary rock singers, and a classic old Motown song. What could go wrong? As it turned out, pretty much everything, as Bowie and Jagger hammed it up and made a dog’s dinner of Dancing In The Street. The song that Dylan first recorded in 1963 for his second album The Freewheelin’ Bob Dylan was remade six years later as a duet with Cash. Most extraordinary of all, in this meeting of two major figures in American music, is the complete lack of ego in the performance.

While we were singing, we were in lov. ut when the music ended, we kissed each other on the cheek and said goodbye. Gaye practically owned the duet format on Motown.

Where Did Our Love Go (1964), their second album, is a good document of their ambitious climb to stardom as it is a hodge-podge of recordings made between 1962-’64. A Breathtaking Guy, written by Smokey Robinson, is similar to singer Mary Wells’ style but peaked at No. 75 as a single in 1963. Working hard at recording and being a regular opening act for various Motown revues, the Monitors weren’t as successful as Motown would’ve wanted.
