B. Schmit, Lou Reed, Ben Harper and Bonnie Raitt.

My Hand’ and Bonnie Raitt on ‘When The Spell Is Broken’.
The Timothy B. Schmit track ‘Secular Praise’ will feature on the Blind Boys Of Alabama
album and Timothy’s forthcoming solo album.
The first single will be ‘Perfect Peace’ featuring Toots Hibbert from Toots and the
Maytels. “I grew up musically in the church and it was great working with the Blind
Boys and capturing the spiritual vibe I love," he said in a statement.

11. Jesus - Lou Reed

13. The Devil Ain’t Lazy - Asleep At The Wheel
14. One Kind Favor - John Hammond
This has an RT mention only in the mentioning that Randy's song with Blind Boys appears to be included on this forthcoming duets release. If anyone is a fan of this group as well, I just thought it worth a mention. Of course we do have the song on randy's Glory Train.

Sounds like a nice album to have. I'm going to purchase it when it gets released. Didn't see a release date though. It was nice of them to include the duet with Randy from his Glory Train on their album. I love their harmonizing. Dee
