Elaine Paige & Barbara DicksonElaine Paige and Barbara Dickson formed a monumental vocal partnership in 1984. Paige, the undisputed “First Lady of British Musical Theatre,” teamed up with Dickson, one of Scotland’s most successful and versatile recording artists, for a collaborative theatrical duet.

They recorded the soaring power ballad “I Know Him So Well” for the concept album of the musical Chess, written by ABBA’s Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus alongside Tim Rice. The single became a historic commercial triumph, topping the UK Singles Chart for four weeks and securing a Guinness World Record as the biggest-selling female duet of all time.
