Footnotes
- Barbra's "You Don't Bring Me Flowers" solo version (track 5), coupled with Neil Diamond's solo version by
inventive radio DJ Gary Guthrie, led directly to Barbra & Neil's duet
single released in October 1978.
- In between the bi-coastal album sessions (December 1977), Columbia
hosted a party to celebrate Streisand's new recording contract.
- At the L.A. sessions in early 1978, Barbra recorded "Prisoner" for the Eyes Of Laura Mars film soundtrack; the song also landed on Barbra Streisand's Greatest Hits, Volume 2.
- Digitally restored/remastered CD released.
