This week In One-Off Collaborations 03/52
How well do you know the music of Roger Waters and Eric Clapton strip down Pink Floyd's "Wish You Were Here" for a poignant Tsunami Aid performance, weaving nostalgia with sincerity, while Brandi Carlile channels Chris Cornell’s spirit in an emotionally charged live version of "Like a Stone." Beth Hart and Joe Bonamassa pour raw intensity into "I'd Rather Go Blind," and Joe Perry, Slash, and Johnny Depp crank "Train Kept A Rollin’" into a thunderous rock spectacle. Meanwhile, "Lindeza," with Ryuichi Sakamoto and Caetano Veloso, whispers understated beauty, and "Sing the Truth" unites Angélique Kidjo, Dianne Reeves, and Lizz Wright in a powerful reimagining of iconic women's songs.? Take our 12-track quiz.
