EspañaBarbra Streisand: Higher Ground
She's been eclipsed by a generation of newfangled power divas, but Babs still has it--superior repertoire in the Tin Pan Alley tradition, deep-pile production from the likes of Foster, Mardin and Afanasieff, and those zillion dollar pipes. Cuddlesome James Brolin gets a credit "for giving me the love I sing about" on tunes like "Leading with Your Heart," while the title track, "At the Same Time," and "Everything Must Change" could one day be used in a Broadway musical about pre-millennial spirituality. -- Jeff Bateman
Reviews for this Album
Re: Higher Ground
Hello Barbra,
I am not sure if you read these or not, however I just wanted you to know that a friend sent me an email with your album " Higher Ground". I love the song "Holy Ground" that you sing. There is a divne connetion when you sing this song. The Avinu
prayer that you also sing is inspiring. There is a 'New" book out called "The Prayer Of Our Fathers". http://www.aprayertoourfather.com/learn-the-avinu-prayer-in-hebrew/ here is the link to it if you so choose. I have not followed you through the years, it was only when in August 2010, that there was a divine encounter with the song "Somewhere" which I had never heard of before...I know...I am probably the only on the planet that has not heard this song before-I had to google you and this song...I just want to add a thank you for your calling to help with womens issues- my mother had a triple by-pass 22 years ago, and is now 84.
Blessings & Shalom

Re: Higher Ground
Avinu Malkeinu is my favorite on this recording. I would love for you to do some other Hebrew songs. I love listening to you in French too.
