Backup singers are so important, and it's nice to take note of their role. I like the story of Gimme Shelter by the Rolling Stones, with Merry Clayton coming into the studio at midnight and knocking it out of the park. An NPR interview with Jagger and a track of Clayton singing just background are at this link.
