(1) Stoney End (1971) - surprisingly rich country (pedal steel) / soul (horns) / pop (tunes) set, much of it fantastic - check out Harry Nilsson's "Maybe", Randy Newman's "I'l Be Home", Carole King's "No Easy Way Down", plus Joni Mitchell, Gordon Lightfoot, Laura Nyro, Kurt Weill etc. Nice cover too.
(2) What's Up Doc? (1972) - Bogdanovich's screwball homage, still very much underrated - both Streisand and Ryan O'Neal (et al) very lovable and very funny.
Rest dud, natch.

My two cents:
Get Live at the Bon Soir instead of her actual debut album.My Name is Barbra and Color Me Barbra are great examples of her classic style.Stoney End is perhaps the most successful of her "contemporary" albums.
Barbra Streisand... and other musical instruments is her most bizarre album.

Chris Molanphy's Hit Parade podcast just had an episode on her music and chart career, and I learned quite a lot!

I'm waiting for the biog to come out in paperback because i don't care who you are, that hardback can not be easily read by a human.

Chris made the case for its best form being audiobook, not least because song clips are part of it. Based on the shared snippet I'm inclined to agree!

Damn yeah that does sound good. Bono's is like that, so it must be A New Thing these days.

lol at Roslyn Kind up there, she's such a total half-Barbra!

I'd seen The Way You Were so many years ago that I remembered nothing except the ending and the early scene where the bluebloods heckle Babs at the rally. A lot of it is tripe, but...woof, talk about the miracles of star acting. Streisand is earnest, likable, and weird. Redford does some of his best acting when he argues with her or in that final ending when he realizes they're completely over as a couple.
Sydney Pollack complained that preview audiences hated the political stuff, but, really, I chow down on any movie with an extended scene about people's reaction to FDR's death.

never really listened to her before but "Evergreen" is pretty amazing during the climax. she goes back and forth between this awesome high intensity celine dion thing and this gorgeous melty mellifluous olivia newton john warmth, with grace and fluidity. Is Streisand at her best during the big moments like these? when she's just singing all regular and mellow it's pretty boring, but when she pulls out all the stops here it's really awesome.
