Barbra Streisand släpper tio outgivna guldkorn

By on 7 juni, 2021

Barbra Streisand presenterar sitt kommande album ”Release Me 2” som innehåller tio outgivna guldkorn ur sitt arkiv. Låtarna på nya albumet är inspelade åren 1962-2020.

Albumet “Release Me 2” innehåller outgivna guldkorn ur Barbras otroliga karriär och här berättar Barbra om hur hon med omsorg valt ut och färdigställt låtarna på albumet:

”For me, the studio is a combination musical playground and laboratory…a private sanctuary, where the possibility of catching lightning in a bottle always exists. Whenever that kind of magic happens, it’s extremely satisfying. Sometimes though, when the arrangement doesn’t quite gel or the song no longer fits the tone of the album it was meant for, the tapes go into the vault for safekeeping. Working on this 2nd volume of Release Me has been a lovely walk down memory lane…a chance to revisit, and in some cases, add a finishing instrumental touch to songs that still resonate for me in meaningful ways. I’m particularly struck by the ongoing relevance of ’Be Aware’ and ’One Day,’ which still speak to our collective sense of humanity.”

Albumet “Release 2 Me” släpps fysiskt på CD med 32-sidig booklet, 12″ vinyl samt digitalt. ”Release Me 2” innehåller låtar skrivna och producerade av storheter som Burt Bacharach, Hal David, Barry Gibb, Randy Newman, Michel Legrand/Alan Bergman/Marilyn Bergman, Harold Arlen, ”Yip” Harburg, Carole King, Steve Dorff, Paul Williams/Kenny Ascher samt Walter Afanasieff/John Bettis. 

Mer om Barbra Streisand:

Widely recognized as an icon in multiple entertainment fields, Barbra Streisand has attained unprecedented achievements as a recording artist, actor, director, producer, screenwriter, author, songwriter and concert performer. Streisand has been awarded two Oscars, five Emmys, ten Grammys including the Legend Award and the Lifetime Achievement Award, a Tony Award, eleven Golden Globes including the Cecil B. DeMille Award, three Peabodys, and the Director’s Guild Award for her concert special — the only artist to receive honors in all of those areas.

In addition, Streisand has also received the American Film Institute’s Lifetime Achievement Award and the Kennedy Center Honor. She also received the National Medal of Arts from President Clinton, the Presidential Medal of Freedom from President Obama, and France’s Légion d’Honneur.

She is the first woman to direct, produce, write, and star in a major motion picture, the first woman composer to receive an Academy Award, the only recording artist who has achieved #1 albums in six consecutive decades, and the first and only woman to receive a Golden Globe Award for Best Director.

A woman of action, Streisand is a devoted philanthropist who works tirelessly to fight for what she believes in. She founded The Barbra Streisand Women’s Heart Center at Cedars-Sinai and co-founded the Women’s Heart Alliance, helping to raise awareness and push for more research into women’s heart disease, the leading cause of death among women. Through the Streisand Foundation, which she established in 1986, she has fought for progressive ideas. She has been a leading environmental activist funding some of the earliest climate change research. She has long been a staunch supporter of racial equality, women’s rights, civil rights, and the very urgent need to protect voters’ rights.
