"Simply Streisand" is the 9th studio album released by Barbra Streisand. The album was released simultaneously with "A Christmas Album" and was Streisand's first that failed to chart in the Top 10 of the Billboard 200 when it peaked at #12. "Simply Streisand" was recorded March 14, 15 and 20th, 1967. According to Billboard magazine, Columbia Records reports a sale of nearly 250,000 in its first two weeks on the market. The album was certified Gold by RIAA in April 24, 2002. Streisand also recorded "Willow Weep for Me" and "Spring Can Really Hang You Up The Most" during these sessions. Both songs were not included in Simply Streisand. "Willow Weep For Me" was released in the fall of 2012. This was Streisand's first straight album - meaning songs in English, and without a TV special tie-in - since September 1964, when Columbia Records released "People". The liner notes for the LP were written by the composer Richard Rodgers. "No one is talented enough to sing with the depth of a fine cello or the lift of a climbing bird," he wrote. "Nobody, that is, except Barbra." "The Nearness of You" was also played during the opening credits of Streisand's 1968 CBS-TV special, "A Happening in Central Park". Stephen Holden of The New York Times later wrote that Simply Streisand was similar to The Third Album (1964), "but it lacked the freshness of its prototype." A song called "Look" (originally recorded for the previous album, "Je m'appelle Barbra" was included as a b-side to the single: "Stout-Hearted Men".
~Wikipedia
After three albums related to television specials and one of French songs, Simply Streisand was Barbra Streisand's first "regular" new album since People three years earlier and her first new release of any kind in a year. (Before, her albums came regularly every six months.) By now, the singer was spending her time in Hollywood shooting movies, and the music scene had moved heavily into rock, developments that made this a perfunctory set and one released into an indifferent climate; unlike her previous eight albums, Simply Streisand missed the Top Ten. But it isn't that bad. Streisand is not an accomplished performer of classic pop standards like "My Funny Valentine" and "More Than You Know," largely because she seems too intimidated by the material to put an individual stamp on it, but she is a great singer, and if arranger Ray Ellis' charts lack the invention of Peter Matz's, they are conventionally competent. If this were the only Streisand album you ever heard, you'd still think she was good. It's only in comparison to what went before that it seems mediocre.
