A Star Is Born

from: Sony

Release Date January 29, 2002
This CD, called an album the first time I purchased it, is for the woman who is strong enough to start her own company, run someone elses, gracefully confront those that have invalidated her, be opinionated, has respect for Mother Nature to a common sense point, sets her own standards and loves with compassion beyond words and figuratively speaking burnt her bra years ago.
I still remember seeing this movie and as a child I left the theatre with tears running down my face, I was twelve. What also amazed me is how many of the words to these songs I have remembered. There is a song to fit every mood on this CD. Need a pick me up before a tough business meeting or just facing the 2nd cup of coffee on a 16 hour day - Select "Queen ... Read More:

Streisand: Live In Concert (2 CD's)

Between that golden voice and the grandiose orchestra this CD is pure heaven. I'm addicted. I can't stop playing it. In my house, in my car and on my laptop. This work of art is the best I've ever heard. Buy it, you won't regret it.

Memories

by: Barbra Streisand

Release Date October 25, 1990
Memories is one of Barbra Streisand's better albums out there and when you hear the songs you'll be certain to agree with me! The quality of the sound is very, very good; and that artwork faithfully re-creates the artwork of the record album jacket.

"Memory" starts the CD with this stunning song from the Broadway musical entitled Cats; Barbra makes this all her own with her uncanny sense of timing. Barbra's excellent diction also enhances her performance and as Barbra plays with both the tempo and the keys a little she truly does make this ballad her own--great! "Memory" is a fine song and it makes a strong beginning for this album. Listen also for Barbra Streisand to do an excellent duet with Neil Diamond on "You Don't Bring Me Flowers;" "You Don't ...

Guilty

by: Barbra Streisand

I think this is one of the best Barbra's CDs and by far the most popular.
I needed no information about it, because I'm Barbra's devoted fan. Your price was good.

Barbra Streisand's Greatest Hits, Vol. 2

by: Barbra Streisand

Release Date October 25, 1990
Barbra Streisand's Greatest Hits, Vol. 2 is a good CD that is just too short to be called any type of "greatest hits" album. Even when taken together with Volume 1 of Barbra Streisand's greatest hits this CD is still way too short. That disappoints me. However, what we do get is very good quality throughout; and the sound quality is excellent. I like that artwork, too!

The CD starts with the love theme from Barbra Streisand's remake of the classic movie entitled A Star Is Born. Barbra sings "Evergreen" with passion and she never sounded better. Her excellent diction and her uncanny sense of timing helps to make her singing all the better! Barbra also handles tempo and key modulations as if it were as natural as breathing. Of course, we know that it really ... Read More:

Barbra Streisand - A Collection: Greatest Hits...and More

by: Barbra Streisand

Release Date September 20, 1989
Many people criticize this Barbra Streisand album because it is not a Greatest Hits collection in its truest sense. True, there are many songs that shouldn't have been omitted that have been ("A Piece of Sky," "Till I Loved You," and "No More Tears" to name a few), and some songs included that shouldn't have been ("By the Way" is probably the best example). But if you take out of consideration that this is supposed to be greatest hits, the collection of songs here are fabulous.

First off, this is a better album to buy than Memories, because not only are "Memory" and "Coming In and Out of Your Life" on here, but so are two other new songs, as well as "The Main Event/Fight," previously only available on the soundtrack, as well as all the big hits from Guilty. But ... Read More:
