Footnotes

Streisand vocals on tracks 1, 3, and 9, produced, arranged, and conducted by Bob Esty.

After the songwriters performed "The Main Event" in Barbra's home and hooked her son Jason immediately, the tune replaced ballad themes composed separately by Streisand and David Shire & Alan and Marilyn Bergman and eventually became Barbra's first disco club hit.

Digitally restored/remastered CD released.
