Costello Duets album

Post by Neil. »

If our man released a duets album of 12 tracks only, what would have to go on it?

I think definitely

Whisper/Scream - Glenn Tilbrook
Baby It's You - Nick Lowe
7 Day Weekend - Jimmy Cliff
Heart Shaped Bruise - Emmylou Harris
People's Limousine - T Bone Burnett
Story In Your Voice - Lucinda Williams

...but I can't think of any others off the top o' me head. Can't remember many ballad duets, but maybe I'm wrong? Most of the duets seem to be rockers.

They Can't Take That Away From Me - w/ Tony Bennett
You Want Her Too - w/ Paul McCartney

There are plenty of unreleased ones like Set The Twilight Reeling (with Lou Reed) from a French tv show, or Windows Of The World (with Ron Sexsmith).

I've just thought - of course it'd have to include

Who's Gonna Help Brother Get Further? - Allen Toussaint

I burned my own in 2003:

1. Seven Day Weekend (with Jimmy Cliff)
2. I Still Have That Other Girl (with Cassandra Wilson)
3. They Can't Take That Away From Me (with Tony Bennett)
4. Crying Time (with Wanda Jackson)
5. Stranger In The House (with George Jones)
6. Don't Get Above Your Raising (with Ricky Skaggs)
7. (What's So Funny 'Bout) Peace, Love & Understanding (with Nick Lowe)*
8. The People's Limousine (with T Bone Burnett)
9. For The Stars (with Anne Sofie von Otter)
10. Meet Me On The Corner (with Dan Hicks)
11. Doncha Go 'Way Mad (with Deborah Harry)
12. Baby It's You (with Nick Lowe)
13. Changed The Locks (with Lucinda Williams)*
14. You Want Her Too (with Paul McCartney)
15. Mischievous Ghost (with Mary Coughlan)
16. From A Whisper To A Scream (with Glenn Tilbrook)
17. Everyday I Write The Book (with Ron Sexsmith)*
18. That's All It Took (with Ricky Skaggs)*
19. Crazy (with Diana Krall & Willie Nelson)
20. They'll Never Take Her Love From Me (with T Bone Burnett)
21. Take It With Me (with Anne Sofie von Otter)*
22. Windows Of The World (with Chrissie Hynde)*
23. Living A Little, Laughing A Little (with John Hiatt)

Tracks marked with an asterisk are unreleased live versions. "Don't Get Above Your Raising" is my own bizarre edit which removes the interminable instrumental break.

Since this was made in 2003, it doesn't include "Heart Shaped Bruise," "There's A Story In Your Voice," and "Who's Gonna Help Brother Get Further?"

Don't forget that another duet with Tony Bennett will be released soon.
