It Takes Two…

Love comes in many forms, but music never lies when it comes to harmony...so we bring you the best in North-South Harmony? From Frank Sinatra and Tom Jobim when mutual admiration looked so cool (I mean, the legs crossed and fag...priceles), to Nicky Minage and Karol G, we bring you the best gringo/a-latino/a combos ever

1. Are these not the two coolest dudes that ever lived? The legs crossed, fag hanging out of mouth... priceless...

 

2. Another great gringo and Brazilian combo that you can't resist...Astrud Gilberto and Stan Getz

 

3. Dizzy Gilespie & Chano Pozo. Now this is a musical love story if ever you heard one!

 

4. A truly beautiful song, one of our favourites of Ruben Blades, with Linda Rondstad about a couple who love each other but are not in love and only silnec remains. 

 

4. When two legends of the guitar come together...

 

 

5. Moving on to the modern era, it's gotta be Mark Anthony and J-Lo (she was born in Gringaland after all), but do we choose 'Before' or 'After'? 

 

6. Wyclef and Shakira's 'Hips Don't Lie' was a water shed moment for Shakira's career and a thing of great beauty to hear and watch

 

7. Sergio Mendes produced a massive hit for Black Eye Peas, although he in turn got the song from Jorge Ben, a genius

 

8. Alicia Keys, Pedro Capo and Fruko, produced THE song of the summer of 2018

9. I mean, who would have dreamed the day when Usher did Bachata

10. We started with some man-love and we end with some woman-on-woman action with these two bombshells

So, Tell us what Gringo/Latin collabs you love!
