One I would like to have heard would be "Portrait of My Love" by Jeanette MacDonald and Nelson Eddy. For one that might actually be possible, how about Bobbie Gentry and Willie Nelson doing her "Bugs."

I would not mind hearing them together, I bet they could create some good music. It was just something with her and Tony that I couldn’t get into,

I liked that song for a long time. But, I never knew who did it. Never would have guessed that pair. Finally I know. Thanks.

Here's another unlikely combo whose musical styles really work well together. Maybe it's because they have some basic Celtic inspired roots. I've always been a fan of both and love this album, too!

 

All the Road Running - Mark Knopfler and Emmylou Harris

 

Here's a sample -

NOT A FAN OF EITHER- BUT THIS SONG- WOW! IT REMINDED ME OF ONE OF MY FAVORITE DUETS: JIMMIE DALE GILMORE& LUCINDA WILLIAMS-"REUNION". HE HAS AN ETHEREAL VOICE & A STYLE IN A CLASS BY HIMSELF; HER VOICE SOUNDS TO ME LIKE TEXAS - WHISKEY & HONEY

Most definitely! Maybe super-super groups is more appropriate!
