Barbra Streisand – A Happening In Central Park (1968)

 

happening in centralpark

Listing highlights is pointless. Have your pick - A killer version of "Cry Me A River". Streisand showing off her ditzy, kooky Brooklyn side on the Folk Monologue. Superb renditions of "He Touched Me" and "People". And the masterpieces - Barbra's incomparable, unique singing voice at its very best on "Love Is Like A Newborn Child", "Natural Sounds" and "Silent Night".

Her best concert performance -if only because she still had that relaxed light touch and her command of the audience is a wonder to behold.
