Who your favourite collaborators song or music??
Mine’s ‘Scale it Back’ DJ Shadow & Yukimi Nagano/Little Dragon. Massive fan of both and they n every way sound like they were made to work together. Should have been a huge hit IMO (obviously I’m biased). Who’re your top twosome (or howevermanysome)?
Other mentions:
Orb and Fripp (FFWD)
Holger Czukay and David Sylvian
Tom Jones + New Model Army + Mark Feltham doing The Rolling Stones’ Gimme Shelter
Also P J Harvey and Nick Cave:
David Byrne / Brian Eno
Bomb the Bass / Sinead O’Connor
Kylie / New Order

Before I forget:
Mr Jukes and and Charles Bradley. I make it out to be about the saddest happiest song ever since he died. It’s perfect though.
Never heard of any of them mind
Far more interesting to hear things you’re not familiar with innit?
^ DezB totally agree. Internet changing my earhole’s lives with new (to me) artists since circa 2k still always listening out 👍🏼

Has to be Dr John and The Meters for me. Funkiest thing to happen in the history of music.
I’ll do some more tomorrow then 🙂
If you are a psychobilly of a certain age 🙂
Nah, who am I kidding? This is my favourite
^ Yeah! Really liking Not Waving, is now looking like a late night Tidalfest
Dodgy Dave & The Knobtwiddler was a great call too. Another goodie from them:
Stretching the rules a bit, as it's a sample of Kate Bush, but...
it’s a sample
You need your own thread but if you are having that
Samples? Samples? We’re moments away from mashups, I shouldaknown. NOOOOOOOOO. Have already looked squint-eyed at the Kylie offering but let it slip. Which sounds all kinds of right. Wrong. I meant wrong.
Anyway here

We’re moments away from mashups I shouldaknown. NOOOOOOOOO
This is STW, nothing ever goes the way you want. I’m just searching YouTube for a Bohemian Rhapsody cover on a rusty trombone or some such brass. Not sorry.
Bjork and the Brodsky Quartet?
KLF and Tammy Wynette!
I just discovered after 30 years that it wasn’t Dolly Parton 🤦🏼♂️

There are a couple of big clues 👐

Is a guest vocalist the same as a collaboration? I could post 100s of them 😀
Moderat is Modeselektor and Apparat. I think this is my favourite collab ever of all time
Sisyphus was great - Sun Lux, Sufjan Stevens and Serengeti
Suuns, one of my fave bands, did a collab album with Jerusalem in MY Heart who I'd never heard of. Is good

Was going to post Run DMC and Aerosmith, but Mikkel beat me to it.
I'll go for another Tom Jones 'collab' instead:
You + Me
(Dallas Green and Pink)
Killer + the sound
(Phoebe Bridgers + Noah & Abby Gundersen)
Keep on rocking in the free world
(Neil Young + Pearl Jam)
Set the fire to the third bar
(Snow Patrol and Martha Wainright)
I really enjoy a good man/woman harmony.
Just remembered this one, thought the bloke was Peter Gabriel (from the chorus) when I first heard it on the radio.
Not claiming this is the best ever but it is a full on band (band duo) amalgamation Franz Ferdinand Sparks: FFS
camping it up just a little
jesus christ, dunno if youtube is on the blink or something but blimey wainwright's flat
Girl From The North Country with Johnny Cash and Bob Dylan. I love the album Hawk by Mark Lanegan and Isobel Campbell.
