SAM MOORE (b. 1935) and CONWAY TWITTY  (1933-1993):   “A Rainy Night in Georgia”   Sam Moore is in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. He became famous for his twenty year career as half of the soul music duo of Sam and Dave.

In this version of the Brook Benton classic, Sam Moore does the high parts, while country singer Conway Twitty does the lower parts. Some critics consider this to be one of the all time great duets in popular music. It was recorded right before Twitty died suddenly.

It was raining the day we visited Tybee Island, near Savannah.
