Dean Martin and Dino, Desi & Billy are probably out of the question...

Natalie & Nat King Cole...

Teaching Eleanor quantum mechanics:



OMG!  That looks like the alien machine in the movie Contact.

Don't play with the miniture wormhole -- you might poke your eye out!

Bobby D and Jakob. Meh.
Would you rather have Don & Neneh Cherry?  :)
I find the theme slightly irritating in that we've already gone thru 7 songs on essentially 3 family combinations.  I'd've preferred a "songs about fathers" set -- even if it woulda meant "Cats in the Cradle".

The concept didn't work for me, either.  The father/child song thing changes ten songs into five
pairs, or in this case a triad, three pairs, and a duet.  And musically it was all over the map.
The whole was somehow less than the sum of its parts.

A ten song set of parent-child duets might have been more interesting...

TANC: WLNG just played "I'm a Fool". Surely the only station in America that plays it regularly.
