Help us find and improve next week's Connection Finder profiles: Bennett Duets

Tony Bennett, often referred to as the "King of Duets," passed away recently. We're featuring him in the Connection Finder next week alongside some of the people he's sung duets with through the years.

Here's who we're getting started on:

Who else should we feature? We have room for eleven notables. We can't feature everyone who is nominated, but if we don't feature a profile you work on, we may use it sometime in the future. And, of course, all contributions help improve our shared tree.

Our choice of features will depend partly on the notable person's CC7, i.e. their connection count within seven degrees. The more connections they have, the more likely it is for all WikiTree members to find a close and interesting connection to them. So, if you nominate someone, please help grow their CC7.

We'll make a final decision on which ones to feature early next week.

Please reply here with what you're working on so that we don't duplicate our efforts. Thank you!

Take note that this is not the place to discuss why you think we shouldn't feature someone if those reasons are due to politics, actions, or opinions of those being suggested.  Mentioning things like their not being connected, their biography still needing work, erroneous information, etc. are all suitable for discussion here and an opportunity to correct those situations.

Help us plan Connection Finder themes for 2023 here.

So many great artists to choose from here.  Most memorable for myself would be R&B Legend Natalie Cole (Stormy Weather and others), as well as B.B. King (Let the Good Times Roll). Although King isn't as of yet connected to the main tree, still worth considering in my opinion!
