    have no idea who the second voice is on this, but it came on in my car yesterday and I realized that it is a duet.

    No,I confined all the "Fave" posts to the period 1952 - 1963 (when my
    lists are more accurate :)

    As for "Beal Street On A Saturday Night" I always understood the other
    artist to be Scatman Crothers

    I just scrolled through my 51 list. "Beal Street" was the only duet.

    What a bout "The Deacon Moves In"? Little Esther more or less duetting
    with Charlie White of The Dominoes. It'd be #1 on my list for sure

    You didn't have that on your female list?

    If not, then yes, it's easily the top duet of 1951.

    I don't come up with enough titles for a full 1951 Duets list but here's
    what I have

    The Deacon Moves In Little Esther & Dominoes
    Heart To Heart Little Esther & Dominoes
    Beal Street On A Saturday Night Calvin Boze (Scatman Crothers)
    Out in The Cold Again Ravens & Dinah Washington (Jimmy Ricks) Ring-A-Ding-Doo Little Esther & Mel WAlker
    I’m Waiting Just For You Lucky Millinder (Annisteen Allen)
    Hey Good Lookin’ Ravens & Dinah Washington (Jimmy Ricks)

    Daba Honeymoon" abortion

    So I liked it a lot when I was 3.
    Now my granddaughter is 3 and she likes all the Disney stuff.
    I'm not going to introduce her to "Abba Dabba," if for no other reason
    than that my daughter would kill me. She's never heard it. We'll just
    let it be our little secret.

    From 1914 here's the original version :-

    As regards the 1951 version you remember---I take it this was the Debbie Reynolds/Carleton Carpenter big hit version as there were several other versions out there

    I suppose so, but I'm no Sc*rl*tti--I can't remember much from when I
    was that young.
