Originally released in 2003, Barb Waters� �Rosa Duet� was featured in Rhythms Magazine�s Top 10 albums for 2003 and got a runner-up gong for album of the year from Rhythm�s editor and Off the Record programmer Brian Wise.
Two years in the making, produced by Craig Pilkington, the album featured duets and songwriting collaborations with a range of celebrated artists � the much-missed Cyndi Boste, Kim Salmon, Dan Warner, GIT, Anna Burley, Matt Walker, Ash Davies, Nick Barker, Lisa Miller, Rebecca Barnard, and Rob Snarski.
Twenty years later in 2023, �Rosa Duet� finds a new home at Cheersquad Records & Tapes with its first vinyl release, pressed on beautiful red recycled vinyl. Paying homage to many of the great country duetists � Nancy & Lee, George & Tammy, Emmylou & Gram, highlights include: �Vacancy Signs� with Dan Warner, �Make it Count� with Kim Salmon veers heavily into Lee Hazelwood and Nancy Sinatra territory, while Nick Barker brings some Rolling Stones-y grit with �Split You Open�. �Rosa Duet� is well worth revisiting or discovering for the first time.
