Trisha Yearwood & Babyface on CMT Crossroads

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

What an amazing pairing. There are still moments when the artists sorta look at each other from either side of the stage, and are still trying to figure each other out. I mean, these folks are just sorta slapped together do so a few songs one time. There have been some amazing pairings, though. Martina McBride and Pat Benatar. Ronnie Milsap & Los Lonely Boys. Chesney & Mellencamp. Willie Nelson and Sheryl Crow. Too many to name.

Looks like the Trisha show is from 2007. Still feels so modern, too.

Also, fun bit of serendipity that Eric Clapton and Babyface's Unplugged was so popular, and Clapton has a popular album called Crossroads. Oddly, Clapton has never appeared on CMT Crossroads.

Very cool, I enjoy this series. It’s almost like Country music and Pop music can be interchangeable when done properly.
