Title: Her attempt at being hip
Review: I'm a huge Barbra fan. Her voice is radiant and stunning (the best perhaps of all time, opera singers excluded). But this album, from the songs, to the cover (which makes her look like a 50 year old rich debutant) does not showcase her talents.Her voice is good here, as always, but she seems removed from the music, and she sounds like she simply doesn't get what she's singing, which is very unusual for her. After a string of "trying to be modern" records, she gave up and went back to the 1985 Broadway Album, which won her the acclaim she had lost. She needs to stick with standards.
