DUETS is a compilation of duets and contains a new duet recording with Barry Manilow, "I Won't Be The One Let Go".
Barbra Streisand's long and varied career is the stuff of legend, as the actress/director/songstress consistently takes chances, never content to rest on her laurels. DUETS, a collection of her collaborations, reflects this wide-sweeping talent, amassing tracks from every facet of Streisand's career. DUETS includes partnerships with stars of pop, country, soul, disco, rock, songwriters of a bygone era, and stars of Broadway and opera. It boasts a track from probably the most famous record to bear the same title (Frank Sinatra's DUETS), a live duet with Dorothy herself culled from a 1963 episode of the Judy Garland Show, and the underappreciated mellow-cool "Guilty" with Bee Gee Barry Gibb.
Number One hits with Neil Diamond and Donna Summer sit alongside less remembered alliances with Celine Dion and Kim Carnes. There's even a track on which Barbra doubles up with herself. Most importantly to fans and collectors alike, DUETS features two new tracks, a fetching, modern Disney-esque torch song with Barry Manilow ("I Won't Be The One To Let Go") and a pitch perfect pairing with rising opera-pop star Josh Groban (the inspirational "All I Know Of Love").
Recorded between 1966 & 2002.

Barbra and Friends Do It All! This is an excellent collection of duets, whether you are a fan of Streisand or just a lover of a broad range of popular music. It's like two albums in one: a Barbra Streisand collection, and a Various Artists set. Barbra and friends span four decades and all musical genres, from romantic ballads ("You Don't Bring Me Flowers") to movie themes ("I Finally Found Someone") to R&B ("Cryin' Time") to Disco ("No More Tears") to Broadway ("The Music of the Night") to Country ("If You Ever Leave Me") to Easy Listening ("I've Got a Crush On You"). Barbra even duets with herself on the pop classic medley "One Less Bell to Answer/A House Is Not A Home". If this is not enough, the CD includes a few songs previously unreleased. The remastered sound is terrific, the sequencing works, and the overall effect is exhilirating. Truly an eclectic treasure, and an inspiration for every wannabe diva.
