Great songs like Fairytale of New York don't count as both singers were alive when it was made.

The reason I ask is I've just bought an album featuring an Elvis Presley and Michel Bublé duet. It's a bit like that thing Elvis was sitting on when he died.

Both dead now, Natalie  died just a couple of weeks ago.
Can't remember there being a RIP thread for her, I'm sure there must have been one and I've just forgotten.

Without a doubt it's Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong, singing Summertime.

A great song, although not my favourite song by a long way, but their take on it, and the astounding orchestral music clinches it, for me.

I think the last 2 posts indicate that this is not being taken seriously, especially tmm's. Never heard a song by the 2 footballers.

I thought the David Bowie / Bing Crosby Christmas number - Burr rumper bum bum
was a candidate but both were alive when it was made afaik.
I think Fitzgerald and Armstrong were both alive too when they recorded together, sorry km.

This is the sort of thing I mean:

Can't mind the song, but I saw a great duet on telly years ago by Sinatra and Louis Armstrong. They were fantastic.

Kenny Rogers and Dolly is a good call albeit that it was only one song.

Going back a little...

Simon & Garfunkel must be top of the tree.

Fabulous music for all time, and inspirational lyrics.

Based on this thread, I'd never make a parachute instructor - some basic detail like the parachute being on your back when you jumped would get overlooked.
The basic premise here is that one of the duet have to be dead when the recording was made.

I've read and re-read the opening question, and you surely must concede that it takes some understanding!

So we are looking for something where one party is deceased, and their vocal is then resurrected, and and rerecorded as a duet, with another living singer?

There must be hundreds of them.....Laugh
