Title: perfect, timeless *and* exciting
Product review: When Rolling Stone rated this 5-stars, I had to take a listen. The rating's no exaggeration. There are so many lovely tracks, wonderfully orchestrated and accompanied by Barbra, who will never have her vocals so well showcased. Every track, including the big hits like "Guilty" and "What Kind of Fool" not only sound great, but have genuine emotional content. And there's a bonus: Superb engineering. Just wait for the SACD version. I own the half-speed mastered CBS LP and the recording quality ranks with the best I've ever heard. A triumph of easy-listening non-mush adult contemporary music.
