Barbra Streisand ready to release new concert album

Superstar, and old time queer favourite,  Barbra Streisand is about to release a new live concert album. The Music…The Mem’ries…The Magic! will be out on December 8th.

The new album is accompanied by a TV special which premieres of Netflix on Netflix today. The special was filmed on the last stop of the iconic superstar’s 13-city 2016 tour, showcasing a career-crowning array of legendary songs which are also featured on the eagerly anticipated album.

Streisand takes us behind-the-scenes while recording her recent hit album Encore: Movie Partners Sing Broadway. The album saw the legendary entertainer singing duets with a diverse range of artists including Alec Baldwin, Chris Pine, Jamie Foxx, Anne Hathaway and Hugh Jackman.

The success of the recent album made Streisand the only recording artist in history to achieve a number one album in six consecutive decades.

So far in her illustrious career Barbra Streisand has recorded 52 gold, 31 platinum and 13 multi-platinum albums. Streisand has had 34 albums make the Top 10 on the US charts, the only female artist to have achieved this milestone, tying her with Frank Sinatra.
