Well to be fair Pavarotti enjoyed pop music and singers and performed with them a lot, but he tended to pick REALLY good ones.
He has two charity concerts that he put together called Romanian Angel Appeal, in addition to American pop stars there are lots of world stars that we don't know of, he performs duets with his favorites. You get to hear him duet in opera with Cheryl Crow and Jon Secada and pop with Eric Clapton and Elton John etc.
Two awesome albums. Probably available on youtube as well.
