@helterskelterss - I know in this period, Ian had sideburns about as ubiquitous as what Elvis wore at the same time . . .

@vaughnsalem - You should hear their rendition of the old Mickey & Sylvia hit, "Love Is Strange" (starting at the 5:49 mark on: watch?v=V3BJ4ztVP9Q ) - was unreleased for a quarter-century until it was issued as a bonus track on a CD reissue of their first Columbia Records LP from 1971.

@etsneroj Your right,, they are not right on this,,The Band was best on this! Tyson was great on his songs he wrote ,,like Someday soon,,that was a song he wrote and did well

Not feeling this version at all. Maybe Ian & Sylvia are an acquired taste I just haven't yet acquired. Or maybe they suck. I don't know.

[GrisGrisOnUrDoorStep]

Its good but all that vibrato really ruins it for me

I heard I&S in 1966 while I was in college. It's one of the deepest and fondest memories I have of live music anywhere or anytime in my life.

Thanks to the poster and to YouTube for giving me the opportunity to relive the memory of this great experience.

Stunning.

This is pure singing in "harmony." Harmony is not the same as singing in unison, although that often works well as well. What is wonderful here is that they harmonize together totally, she is not just a backup singer. He wouldn't have been as good without her nor she without him. That's been proven because they are not, although they are both very good performers and extremely talented people.
