Sooz and I were on chat one evening and they announced that Barbra Streisand was going to be on The Tonight Show for the first time in over 50 years. She and Jimmy sang some of the duets in the new album. I have the album and Hubby doesn't care for it. He says it's too slow. I guess he's used to Taylor Swift, who knows.
I don't care for every pairing. I don't think the duets with Blake or John Mayer work very well and I don't care for the arrangement of People with Stevie Wonder. I also wanted Lionel Richie's The Way Were to be better.
However I adore
What Kind of Fool with John Legend.
It's the number one album this week. So we older women do have buying power. LOL!!!!
Partners," which was released on September 16, is Streisand's 10th No. 1. But perhaps more impressively, the album's strong debut also makes Streisand the first artist to have a No. 1 album in each of the past six decades.
Her first No. 1 album, "People," arrived 50 years ago in October 1964.
