Haven't thought about this song in years! Didn't they do the theme to Family Ties? How many tunes did they do together?

They released this one album. Stevie Wonder plays harmonica on Just The Way You Are. Too Much was just a single and is not on the album. Johnny & Deniece also recorded several other duets.

You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton

Yes, they did. On her Unsung episode, she said they are good friends even today.

This duet was on her "I'm So Proud" album.
