[confessions] i once grabbed a babs album from a free box because it had a version of "grandma's hands" (a song i collected for some reason) which turned out to be so awful. the fact that it even was in my house makes me a bit ashamed.[confessions]
My Dad got Neil Diamond's You Don't Bring Me Flowers (amongst other LPs) from university friends as a Welcome to Montreal/Canada/North America! gift so that song will always have a special place in my heart.
"an album drawn from Streisand's fifth and last network TV special, has the dubious distinction of being the worst-selling Barbra Streisand record in the Columbia Records catalog. The idea of the special was to have Streisand sing many of her best-known songs and other pop standards over musical accompaniment from a variety of national origins, most of them tied into the Gershwin song "I Got Rhythm." "People," for example, was sung over a Turkish-Armenian backing as a medley with "I Got Rhythm," "Don't Rain on My Parade" was played on American Indian instruments, etc. While the result was eclectic by definition, it was more gimmicky than inventive, especially when "The World Is a Concerto" was set against the sounds of household appliances!"
