^^^^ That gave me goosebumps when it got to the iso track!

Thank god for Jimmy Miller and what he lent to The Stones during that period!

One thing that the combined forces of MB do well is explore a theme in music. A lot of surprises in your recommendations so far - especially Dancing in the Street and the song from Jungle Book. Thanks. And thanks to Psy-Fi too, for the info on Gimme Shelter and the gospel song; that young girl on the right really knows how to fire up a crowd by giving her all!

Actually, Stuart Staples is pretty deadpan too, but that suits the lyrics of this song by Tindersticks, Travelling Light (which should not be confused with Travellin' Light by Cliff Richard or Traveling Light by Leonard Cohen):-



Spoiler for Travelling Light Lyrics:
There are places I don't remember
There are times and days they mean nothing to me
I've been looking through some of them old pictures
They don't serve to jog my memory
I'm not waking in the morning staring at the walls these days
I'm not getting out the boxes spread all over the floor
I've been looking through some of them old pictures
Those faces they mean nothing to me no more
I travel light
You travel light
Everything I've done
You say you can justify, you travel light
I can't pick them out, I can't put them in this saddle bag
Some things you have to lose along the way
Times are hard, I'll only pick them out, wish I was going back
Times are good you'll be glad you ran away
Do you remember how much you loved me?
You say you have no room in that thick old head
Well it comes with the hurt and the guilt, and the memories
If I had to take them with me I would never get from my bed
There's a crack in the roof where the rain pours through
That's the place you always decided to sit
Yeah I know I'm there for hours, the water running down my /your face
Do you really think you keep it all that well hid?
No but I travel light
You don't travel light
Everything I've done
It's just a lie, you don't travel light
I'm traveling light
No you don't travel light
I travel light
No, no, you don't travel light
I'm traveling light
You don't travel light

Does anyone remember that time Rob Halford and Bruce Dickinson were on the same song? Of course you don't cause it was unmemorable and pointless.

^ tbh, I couldn't discern two distinct voices in that song, which is a trademark of a vocal duet, surely.

^ Couldn't discern any voices at all in this, OH. If we include instrumental duets here it's going to be like anarchy !

Don't you have any nice boy-plus-girl songs?!

^ This is by MM but it is not the lady herself, although to judge from the cameraman's lop-sided attention you might imagine otherwise.
