'Love Is The Answer', Barbra's 63rd album, has climbed to position 1 on the UK album charts, in it's second week.
Here's a note from Barbra...
When the album went to #1 in the States I was surprised and thrilled. To have the same thing happen on "the other side of the pond" is just as exciting.
I've always loved spending time in the UK and it's so gratifying to learn how this album has been embraced. With all my appreciation and thanks! Barbra

The website, celebrating Limbaugh's breathless praising of the book, says, "It points out how Barbra Streisand, while lamenting the way labor unions are treated in this country, gets all of her movies produced in Canada."Read more »
