Well, folks . . . I was never a member of the "Barbra Cult" . . . a set-of-pipes, yes . . . but often lacking the musical judgement to guide them . . . she does OK on this tune, but it's missing the smoldering intensity of the O'Connell version, which still comes through after seven decades . . .
The more I hear it, the more I know she should have left this song alone. It belonged to Helen O'Connell who knew what she was doing when she sang it.
Man she has balls! That's a compliment Barbara :) I haven't listened to her in a long time. My sister used to play her albums when I was a kid. Great to hear her blast again.
I never saw anything like this woman...what perform!

@garysaddleback lacking of musical judgement? The bitch has perfect pitch. The highest form of musical judgement.

One of the great cabaret singers of all time. I often wonder what would have happened if she'd stayed in New York...

In my (humble) opinion one of Barbra's top five live performances. The way she attacks it at the end (2:45-50)...Mind blowing!!!
