Duets, a special anthology featuring 14 unique collaborations, includes classics from other artists' Grammy-winning CDs plus four brand new tracks.  Duets ranges from rock to reggae, country to contemporary Christian, and blues to ballads, all unified by the Blind Boys' deep, soulful harmonizing.   Duets features three previously unreleased tracks - with Lou Reed, John Hammond and Toots Hibbert - as well as a new song with Timothy B. Schmit of the Eagles which will be simultaneously released on his forthcoming CD.  Also included is the audio version of a tune with Marva Wright which, until now, was only available on video on the Blind Boys' Live In New Orleans DVD.  The album also features performances with Ben Harper, Randy Travis, Bonnie Raitt, Solomon Burke, Susan Tedeschi, Jars of Clay, Charlie Musselwhite, Asleep At The Wheel, and Dan Zanes.  Of the nine previously-released tracks on Duets, seven have appeared on Grammy-nominated or Grammy-winning albums.  The diverse group of artists that make up Duets reflects the expansive appeal of the group as well as the widespread reverence for their talent.

The album features our song "The Devil Ain't Lazy" which can also be found on our album Reinventing the Wheel.
