Title: Feels Like We're Getting Leftovers...
Review: I have to agree with another reviewer who said that this collection seemed like a lazy way for Barbra (and her record company) to earn a few bucks. This collection is very uneven stylistically, and is therefore somewhat difficult to listen to. The two new songs, particularly "We're Not Makin' Love Anymore," were only so-so and not among her best. Then we get the rehashed recordings of "Memory" and "Comin' In And Out of Your Life," which are fine songs on their own, but were already included on "Memories," a previous "greatest hits and a few other songs" set! The song "By The Way" stinks, in my opinion. Why not "Kiss Me In The Rain" instead? Even "Left In The Dark" would have been better. Only 4 genuine Top 10 hits on the whole album, and three of them are from ONE album ("Guilty"). I enjoy Barbra's artistry, but not so much her marketing.
Is the review positive or negative?
