God, I love that woman.

The sound they had was wonderful. Really nothing better than pure vocal harmony with great acoustic accompaniment.

@neilapayne Linda is singing the dominant melody. Richard will occasionally sing the tonic notes as well, which will make it sound confusing, but he his primarily singing 3rd and 5th harmonies. So, while it is clearly written best as a duet, if you are to perform it alone, sing Linda's part.

Beautiful.

I think I misunderstood your point I beg your pardon.
When I sent the mail I was actually listening Thompsons latest album it's live "Dream Attic" with an incredable guitarbreak in "If love whispres your name".
So again I beg your pardon

Not sure what you are referring to. I did not mention his guitar playing, nor their ability to play live. I simply stated I prefer the song played in the same key as the recorded version. This is pretty much an exact copy of the record, the only difference being Linda's vocal drowns out Richard, and its in a different key.

I've seen an awful lot of bands live in the last 40 odd years but very few better than these 2 though they haven't preformed together for oover 30 odd years.
One other funny thing I've never seen a better guitarist live so I'm not realy sure where you are comming from. I was never really into putting album versions against live ones if they were the same why bother paying live ever.

People really do complain a lot rather than accept what an artist expresses. This is brilliant and perfect, no complaints here!!!

"Why wont it play passed 1/2 way? I've tried it many many times. AAArrghghghg!!!

Love the video but would have been better if the song was in the right key. It isn't close to the album version.



There is no dominent melody line sung by either. You try singing his/hers and you'll
find this is true. But I still cant get it to play past half way? Any suggestions anyone?
