When I was growing up I fell in love with Barbara Streisand.  She is in my view one of the best female vocalists that have ever lived and I also really enjoyed her movies as well. Yentl was very special!

In fact I was once told by a sound engineer that he didn’t think my voice was commercial enough, that it was too like Delta Goodren and Barbara Streisand.  Well he could have had no idea he was comparing my voice to two of the most successful diva’s in the world.  At the time I thought it was an insult but on reflection it was the greatest compliment.

So I thought I’d share with you all one of the songs that I learned when I was in high school.
