It Takes Two to Tango

Soundcheck | May 3, 2010
They say it takes two to tango. Anthony DeCurtis of Rolling Stone Magazine joins us for a discussion of the age-old genre of the musical duet, from classic pairings like George Jones and Tammy Wynette, and through more contemporary ones like Mariah Carey and Old Dirty Bastard. Also, a visit with the Canadian fiddle-driven band of eight musical brothers and sisters known as Leahy. And: the overabundant iPod accessories market.
