Love it! They both sound amazing, and she is particularly stunning on this one.

Hit the Road JacK is a song Ray Charles made famous, but as a boy it was the female voices that stood out and stuck with me. Similarly, this song is on Casey's album but it's really a showcase for her. He loves her voice as much as we do so I wouldn't be surprised if that was his plan all along.

I looked at other versions recorded separately by Helen Reddy and the Animals, among others. I like Eric Burdon's voice but those versions weren't duets and the song doesn't work as well without two characters.

I'm happy MJ posted the following on her blog:

Listen to the super-jazzy new duet from Haley Reinhart and Casey Abrams as they revive the Ray Charles classic, “Hit The Road Jack”.

The song is from Casey’s self-titled debut set to be released tomorrow. Watch out for a post with links later on tonight.

These two have so much natural musical chemistry–their duets are always a pleasure. Casual Idol fans who stop following the contestants once the show is through are really missing out on discovering how talented these kids truly are.

Really hoping for a jazzy cd from these two.
