There are few artists I would purchase new releases from without having heard at least one track, but Ms. Streisand's work is an exception. Her beautiful voice still has power, and these particular song lyrics are brought to life with an emotional intensity that holds more truth now that the artist has a few more years behind her. Few tunes on the 1st disc are well known, and what I assume to be new recordings of more familiar favorites on the 2nd disc are well worth re-visting. While I wouldn't rate this album among my top 5 Streisand favorites, it is a welcome addition to the collection.
