Barbra Streisand - Barbra Streisand...And Other Musical Instruments (1973) [1989, Digitally Remastered]

Barbra Streisand...And Other Musical Instruments (also called And Other Musical Instruments) is the fourteenth studio album by American singer Barbra Streisand. It was released on November 2, 1973 by Columbia Records. The album was made available following a 1973 live television special promoted to improve Streisand's image and sound. With world music as the primary genre, the album's instrumentation varies greatly; even items such as kitchen utensils were used to create melodies and beats. With a majority of the songs on the album being cover songs, Streisand also re-recorded various tracks that originated earlier in her career. Her manager, Martin Erlichman, was credited as the album's sole and executive producer. The album received mixed reviews from music critics. A critic from Billboard liked Streisand's tone and vocals, but others felt as if the album was ultimately forgettable. Barbra Streisand...and Other Musical Instruments is Streisand's lowest selling studio album of her entire career; it is also one of four studio albums released by the singer not to receive a certification from the Recording Industry Association of America. However, it peaked in the lower positions of both Canada and the United States. The album was eventually released as a CD in 1989.

~Wikipedia

Barbra Streisand...and Other Musical Instruments, an album drawn from Streisand's fifth and last network TV special, has the dubious distinction of being the worst-selling Barbra Streisand record in the Columbia Records catalog. The idea of the special was to have Streisand sing many of her best-known songs and other pop standards over musical accompaniment from a variety of national origins, most of them tied into the Gershwin song "I Got Rhythm." "People," for example, was sung over a Turkish-Armenian backing as a medley with "I Got Rhythm," "Don't Rain on My Parade" was played on American Indian instruments, etc. While the result was eclectic by definition, it was more gimmicky than inventive, especially when "The World Is a Concerto" was set against the sounds of household appliances! Barbra Streisand...and Other Musical Instruments was a forgettable misstep that thankfully was erased by the appearance, the same month, of Streisand's biggest hit single yet, "The Way We Were," which reestablished her as a contemporary pop singer.
