I'm totally not sure about it at this stage, but I would need to give it more thought.

Let's start with World Turning...

Often people tell me that they never knew it was co-written, or even that it was two different singers... until I make them listen closely....

They instantly sounded like each other...

They really sound like each other most of the time when they duet. You take something like Hold Me and it's hard to tell where one begins and the other ends. As far as what he does with the guitar that melds into her piano style, I wouldn't be able to say. Hopefully, one of you musicians can elaborate.

Of course, all of them had chemistry. That's why we are where we are. I wish we had more of them fooling around in the studio. Christine always told the story of how in 1975 she brought in her song and Lindsey and Stevie just started singing on it automatically and flawlessly without rehearsal and they all knew they had lightning in a bottle.

On that little smidgeon of Kiss and Run we get, you can sense that. It seems that Chris just spontaneously tells them to start singing and they do and it's perfect, though short-lived. Maybe it wasn't off-the-cuff. Maybe they'd been playing around with that song for 20 minutes already. But it sounded instant and magical.

Yeah, especially when they're singing together. But Christine's solo vocal parts on that are definitely a step or two better than Lindsey's. It's one of her great blues performances.
