Barbra Streisand Artist Snapshot:

When she emerged in a 1960s pop scene dominated by rock & roll, Barbra Streisand was a breath of fresh air to those nostalgic for the great Broadway-oriented pop vocalists of the past. Her stratospheric range and (initially) anachronistic taste in material made her the new Grande Dame of non-rock pop music. Along the way she experimented with the flavors of the day, from folk-rock to disco, but she always returned to the Great American Songbook for inspiration.

Title Note

Personnel includes: Barbra Streisand (vocals).

Includes liner notes by Sammy Cahn.

THE THIRD ALBUM is a collection of standards magnificently performed by the 22-year-old Streisand. "My Melancholy Baby" is a somber interpretation of the classic tune. "Just In Time" was written by Leonard Bernstein for Adolph Green and his wife as a wedding gift, and contains fantastic electric piano. The album maintains a slow, bluesy feel with tracks like "Taking A Chance On Love" and "Bewitched (Bothered And Bewildered)." "Never Will I Marry" picks up the pace to mid-tempo, while "As Time Goes By" slows things down again, with Barbra paying respectful homage to the original.

Streisand's sweet, soulful rendering of "It Had To Be You" is perfect, drawing the listener in for the duration. "I Had Myself A True Love" closes the album, and you feel as if you've just seen her perform at a smoke-filled club. The album contains exceptional arrangements by Ray Ellis, Sid Ramin and Peter Matz. One piece of trivia: the cover photo was shot by actor Roddy McDowall at The Judy Garland Show in 1963.
