I don't think Chris sounded like Cher and vice versa. IMHO her voice is very similar to Steve Winwood. The first time I heard One In A Million on the radio I did not even notice it was a duet because their voices are so similar. When I got the album and saw the credits is when I realized it was Steve.

Similar accents. Christine grew up in Smethwick, Steve in Kingstanding both districts of Birmingham in the Midlands (the Black Country) Also their musical background is the British blues sound of the 1960s. Both have that smokey bluesy sound. |

It was the birthplace of the Industrial revolution, consequently there were many chimneys from foundries and factories polluting the atmosphere…causing discolouration of buildings. Also coal mining was prevalent in the Birmingham area both underground and open cast…. Hence the name Black country Obviously both are now part of history but the name stuck. (Though I prefer your description) |

But Christine has a rounder more mellow voice. I have a soft spot for Spencer Davis… I won a little dancing competition at a local dance hall. And the prize was a three of their singles .. |

Oh, wow...talk about some names from the past. Mary Anne was super sweet. I thought of her when Christine passed and wondered if she would post here around that time.
On another note, I always thought Christine sounded similar to Barbra Streisand, minus the vibrato (if that makes any sense). |
