This is Streisand's masterpiece. No question. Written and produced by Barry Gibb this is a record full of beautifully crafted and arranged love songs and ballads. Babs penchant for big show tunes is kept in check and her pop vocal performances throughout are exceptional. Woman In Love was a UK number 1 but is in no way the strongest track here. Guilty, The Love Inside and My Life Story are gorgeous songs that sound as great today as they did nearly 30 years ago !
It's all about the voice and on Guilty she reached her zenith. The rest of the 80's and 90's would see Streisand record endless covers versions & show songs, perform the odd concert, take a few minor film roles and generally coast quietly into old age.

When the double-CD Essential was released a few months before this, I was disappointed that some great duets were missing, although all the important solo tracks were included. I was therefore particularly pleased to be able to buy this collection. All the duets that were included on Essential - You don't bring me flowers, No more tears, Guilty, Tell him and I finally found someone - are reprised here, but they couldn't have been omitted from either, being among Barbra's biggest hits.

Two newly recorded songs - I won't be the one to let go and All I know of love - bookend this collection, no doubt included to ensure that Barbra's most fanatical supporters need this.

Some of the songs here reflect Barbra's acting career, including ... Read More:

This CD is an excellent introduction to what Barbra Streisand does best. It does not contain her early 60s and 70s work, nor does it contain the passionate and playful Guilty-period scores. It is rather a masterfully put together collection of ballads that, coupled with her timeless voice, would move even those few ardent critics of her work.

Ms Streisand has released many best-of's, and any further addition does raise suspicion as a possible quick way to make money. This collection, however, is beyond reproach, and even a devoted Streisand fan will probably find a song not in their collection. This is due to the inclusion of songs that are omitted from most of the other best-of compilations, such as "New York state of mind" (if there is a more ... Read More:

I went to see Barbra in manchester waited a life time to see her and i wasn't disapointed, it made me smile and cry at the same time, i am in shock that i was fortunate to take part in this once in a life time event.
All the songs were just as i imagined a mix of new and old just beautiful. 'Unusual way' just stunning as was 'Somewhere'.
The cd is played constanly will have to buy a spare...
I am just really hopeing that the dvd will come out soon so i can keep the memories going Thankyou Barbra you are a true star! ( dvd please)..

anyone who has a titter of wit will feel indifference towards streisand the political agitator, the mouthpiece, the drama queen, the egotist.

but few can have anything but respect for streisand the artist.

each song in this album is a little gem, with streisand the perfectionist cutting each jewel of a track till it shines.

1. "come tomorrow" - a country-tinged disco duet with barry gibb, simply arranged and beautifully sung
2. "stranger in a strange land" - soft and romantic and crafted for the streisand voice
3. "hideaway" - one of the album's highlights. deceptively simple, but with a gorgeous saxophone solo at 2:28
4. "it's up to you" - pleasant and soothing
5. "night of my life" - streisand does ... Read More:

This set contains both of Streisands festive albums.

The first 'Christmas album' remains one of the all time classics. From the high-camp of 'jingle bells' to streisands hauntingly gorgeous 'silent night', the album is a sheer revelation from start to finish. Its a fine example of her 60's voice and intonation and remains a favourite to many fans.

the second album 'chistmas memories' came nearly 30 years after the first, but as always with streisand the wait is justified. the song selection is near perfect, and the whole work has a deeply atmospheric, almost cinematic feel. streisand takes festive standards ('i'll be home for christmas'), gorgeous ballads ('closer'), modern pop songs ('it must have been the miseltoe') and spiritual epics (the ...

This first greatest hits package by Streisand was fine in its day, late 60's early 70's, but songs like Sam, You Made The Pants Too Long are irritating now. Streisand was very young making all these recordings, and her later mature vocals sound much better. Classics on here of course, the timeless People, Don't Rain On My Parade, Happy Days Are Here Again; but all these and plenty more are on the excellent Essential Barbra Streisand, a much more worthwhile purchase, especially if its going to be a first purchase of her music.

This film will appeal to all women. (and some husbands) It says a lot.
The music and song is wonderful.

A DVD I wiil keep in my library. I was given the LP in the 70's by my daughter. She had no idea what it meant to me. Have replaced all now. It still sounds great and means the same to me.
Great film and great soundtrack. So is 'Fiddler on the Roof'

If it helps this review I am not Jewish. Though I had a brother named Rueben and our family name is Smith!
