TIMELESS: LIVE IN CONCERT was nominated for the 2001 Grammy Award for Best Traditional Pop Vocal Album. Las Vegas was the place to be as the clock struck midnight on the new millennium, as TIMELESS proves. Barbra Streisand's Las Vegas performances were a prelude to her four performances in New York and L.A., the final concerts of a 40-year career during which Streisand shied away from live performance. The set begins with a look back to 1955, New York. "Something's Coming" from WEST SIDE STORY leads to a reflective "The Way We Were." Babs then takes things uptown for a rousing "Lover, Come Back to Me" featuring Marvin Hamlisch's powerful brass section. A peppy and spirited "Miss Marmelstein," a song she hadn't performed in 37 years, continues her trip down memory lane. Recalling favorite movies, she delivers a poignant "Alfie" and a version of "Evergreen" that doesn't leave a dry eye in the house. After explaining that "Auld Lang Syne" means "time remembered with fondness," she works her Barbra magic over somber strings. Welcoming in 2000, Barbra proclaims that "Happy Days Are Here Again" in a slow, signature version. With maturity and grace, Ms. Streisand turns her fear of performing into an advantage, creating a recording that is truly TIMELESS.
