Re: One Night Only

Having been quite close to winning the opportunity to attend the Vanguard event, I was thrilled to be able to purchase the DVD. Since I couldn't be there, I figured this was the closest option I had. As expected, I was yet again brought to tears by the raw emotion and sheer beauty that Ms Streisand always portrays in her performances. The Village Vanguard event was precisely what I expected. I had purchased Love Is The Answer last fall when it was released. While it is an amazing album, the DVD allows me to feel as if I was there, in the room, with the greatest vocalist of my lifetime. I regret that this is the closest I will ever get. But 'One Night Only' is as special a performance as Barbra has ever offered. There truly are no words that express what happened that 'one night only' at the Vanguard. Your emotional commitment to the music and extraordinary voice is duplicated by no other. From the first time I saw you on the Ed Sullivan show until last night, when I surrounded myself with the sound of 'One Night Only', you remain the only artist who can bring me to tears. Thank you, Barbra Streisand, for all the years your music has made a difference in my life.
