Hope this works, my first attempt at embedding a YouTube video. The song is "Junkman", a 1979 duet by Genya Ravan and Ian Hunter. Genya was born in Poland in 1940, Ian was born in England in 1939 and was the lead singer in Mott The Hoople. Great words, the two voices mingle and sometimes match each other. Over 5 minutes, the last minute gets a little tedious in repetition. This is a rarely heard song. Enjoy.
 
Yeah, I think they have done the best version of it.

The Seventh Seal by Scott Walker (1943-2019). This dark song tells the story of the acclaimed 1957 Swedish film by Ingmar Bergman that involves a Knight playing Chess with Death. Stars a very young Max Von Sydow as the Knight. Walker's strong clear solo vocals make this one a good listen. Oh, but his name really was not Scott Walker, he was born Noel Scott Engel. He also led a trio called The Walker Brothers whose best song from 1966 you will probably recall titled - The Sun Ain't Gonna Shine Anymore - which I deem too mamby pamby to recommend here although it was popular back in the day. Oh wait again, the Walker Brothers were not brothers and their names were not Walker. The three "Walker Brothers" were actually Noel Scott Engel mentioned above as Scott Walker, Gary Leeds as Gary Walker and John Maus as John Walker. Go figure. Enjoy.
