Ok, let's try to connect...

The deep voiced lady:

Tanita Tikaram



and

The angelic voiced man:

Jeff Hanson

[MightyTiny]

Just tried to quickly look into these artists myself, and this one looks like a tough one indeed!

Hanson especially is hard to connect with any artist with more links to other artists. I think I found one link that might lead somewhere, but if this turns out to be overwhealmingly difficult, let me know...

Hmm...Even before this, I was thinking that if we're including Christmas albums, there would probably be lots of overlaps!

Dave Matthews sang "Love of my life" with Carlos Santana

Santana and Eric Clapton shared the stage together with "Jingo"


Eric Clapton played "Higher Ground" by Stevie Wonder

Yeah... got to admit that that did feel a bit like cheating!

(added a suggestion to the first post, that just like the beatles, christmass albums should be avoided unless no other path is found. )
