The music industry has had its fair share of husbands and wives who have worked or still work together. Among them:
- John Lennon & Yoko Ono
- Paul & Linda McCartney
- Les Paul & Mary Ford
- Sonny & Cher
- Gregg Allman & Cher
- Pat Benatar & Neil Giraldo
- Pete Townshend & Rachel Fuller
- Bruce Springsteen & Patti Scialfa
- Carlos Santana & Cindy Blackman-Santana
- Christine & John McVie
Not to mention those artists who have their wives playing big roles behind the scenes, which sometimes means managing them. That list includes:
- Ozzy Osbourne
- Joe Walsh
- John Fogerty
- Paul Rodgers
- Jorma Kaukonen
- Roger McGuinn
- Steve Miller
- Foghat drummer Roger Earl
- Elton John
- Peter Criss
And then there's David Gilmour, whose wife, novelist Polly Samson, doubles as his lyricist.
"Polly and I are a team. We've been writing songs together for over 30 years now. We are very much in sync with each other with what we want to do, and this album is the result of that reaching a firmer, better point in that process."
The album he's referring to is his fifth, Luck and Strange, which will be out on September 6th.
