>Recalling the early years of her career, Streisand described the numerous limitations artists worked under. "When I first started in the '60s, we had limited resources. Studio time was expensive. Tape was expensive. We often didn't have the time or budget for more than two takes on a song. Often we couldn't get the arrangement or mix we wanted."

today they can fit hundreds of takes on a PC and have studio tools that were science fiction in 1963, and what do we get for it but Drake making hundreds of shitty tracks that become dated in three months to pump up streaming his numbers.

How fortunate. Imagine if Pat Boone had modern studio tools.

miss streisand is the namesake of a psychological phenomenon

woman in love is a great track
the duett with celine dion is absolutely the 90s version of goonerbait
>>
>>132005682
Bette Midler was the more edgy version of her. She also openly courted the gay audience, something Streisand was never all that comfortable with.

oof

Barbra was (kind of) Mitch Miller's last big discovery before he was dropped from Columbia in 65, although the Clive Davis regime did gradually push her more towards pop and away from showtune material.
>>
>>132007148
what's funny is Davis would have gladly kept Tony Bennett and CBS wanted to renew his contract in the early 70s but he left in a fit at being forced to do Beatles covers and stuff

gorgeous woman

>>132005682
I own most of her records and I'm not embarrased to say that
>>
>>132007148
the main act that got shitcanned by the new management in 65 was Doris Day, she was about the oldest singer on the CBS roster and had not had a hit in years so she was easy to get rid of. Steve and Eydie and Bennett were younger and had had hits in the current decade so they were allowed to stay.
>>
>>132007957
she's goodwill-core but at least better than sing-along with mitch or andy williams
>>
>>132008098
lol my boomer mother said Day was definitely very washed up by the era of Beatlemania and the only recent thing she did anyone bought was her Christmas album
>>
Poor Barbra was one of those classic born in le rong generation people who wished she'd been born 20 years earlier and gotten to sing in the Artie Shaw Orchestra.
>>
>>132005986
he and Steve Lawrence churned out boatloads of garbage with the limitations of that time, god knows what they'd do today
>>
>>132007148
CBS may have thought of her as a new younger version of Eydie Gorme (ie. showtune-belting New York Jewish girl) but her style was more lithe and curve-around-the-beat than Eydie's blast-the-roof-off-the-building approach.

>and what do we get for it
there has never been a better time for music
if you choose to listen to top 10 radio garbage then that's on you
i'll be over here enjoying niche music genres filled with small bands most people have never heard of that are still creating music with production quality that would be unheard of even a couple decades ago
