Yes folks, here it comes… Barbra Streisand’s duets album and we can’t wait… can we? Wellllll… how many good duets albums have you heard…. Pick one
Frank Sinatra
Ray Charles
Tony Bennett
Barbra Streisand
Can’t pick just one? How about can’t pick any one and why? Because they ALL SUCKED and I have zero reason to expect any better from Barbra (her album above was just a collection); certainly not after her bother terribly expensive and also just plain not good enough Barclay Center gigs a coupla years ago.
So apparently the Babyface co-produced album and while we don’t when it it’ll be dropping it will be dropping so bet on it.
So who can we expect on this really real duets album? How about…
Andrea Bocelli
Bette Midler
Beyonce
Billy Joel
Blake Shelton
Elvis Presley
John Legend
John Mayer
Josh Groban
Lady Gaga
Lionel Richie
Robin Thicke
Stevie Wonder
Usher
Willie Nelson
Yo Yo Mama
Should be interesting, especially Elvis who apparently just performed a virtual version of “Blue Sued Shoes” with Cliff Richard which SONY are still considering releasing. My guess is Columbia Recording Artist Streisand will suffer no such hold up.
I find these duet albums to be uniformly stinky (remember the SNL skit with Joe Piscopo as Sinatra rushing the artists in an hour on a conveyor belt)
