I was 7 when this 'happening' took place & I can vaguely remember my mother being taken off to the 'asylum',yet again & my father playing one of her albums 'cause it was the only way to get me to 'keep quiet'.Ever since,(& I'm now 51),I'll listen to her magnificent vocals & I'm transported back to those times.Not in a bad way,but 'cause her voice soothed me.Still does all these years later.So thanks Babs for sharing such a unique gift with me & many,many others.

Priceless.

@barochial It was probably at least six camerman and a crew of hundred people.

Babs, I fell in love with you when I was a kid. I'm now 42 and I will love you forever. Saw you in New York in 2006 - a dream come true. Thanks for everything. x

this would have been truly epic to attend....

A tracking shot like that was not easy in 1967. They had to pull back a large crane with a camera and cameraman on top. You can see the tracking platform at the bottom of the screen.

@lastalot HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA, the fabulousness that is Streisand. wow, tell em! couldn't have said it better.

At this point I am worshiping the camera man and the sound recorder who preserved this performance for posterity. I will gladly kiss their feet or humble myself in any way necessary to convey my indebtness to them for their intuitve handling of this very remarkable moment!

@sisalrug ok.. riled up? wrong use of that expression
-
@stevesg92 I put it that way because in one of her early interviews she was very blase about the songs where she was loud, and she called it "alot of yelling". And in the latter part of the song she does sound good and riled up. Im sure I'll have plenty of people correcting me on that too. (as if I don't have every Streisand album, geez)
An extraordinary artist...others don't even come close. Brava!!!!

This is crazy but the reason why I actually look for this song was because of "Glee". I didn't even know it existed until I finally see Barbara perform (Incredible voice)!! LOL.
