A few tracks into this highly anticipated Barbra Streisand release and the
title starts to make sense. Guilty Pleasures is a 'Streisandian' spin on a
melange of popular styles, including '50s doo-wop ("Come Tomorrow"),
Motown ("It's Up to You"), disco ("Night of My Life"), Broadway ("Without
Your Love"), and something vaguely waltz-like ("Stranger in a Strange
Land"). If that sounds gimmicky and contrived, it isn't. The musical
influences are more under Streisand's spell rather than the other way
around. Then there's that voice: fire-and-brimstone bold one minute,
cashmere soft the next, and fully undiminished overall. Much has been made
of the politics surrounding "All the Children," but the
protest-song-for-Muzak reputation preceding it comes without
justification. The song makes its point (for peace) mildly and without
undue controversy. The voice of Barry Gibb crops up more than just on the
two duets he is credited with ("Above the Law" and "Come Tomorrow"), and
where it is not being showcased, on "(Our Love) Don't Throw it All Away"
for example, it sounds best. Of course the other inspiration behind this
album's title is a nod to Guilty, the multiplatinum album Streisand and
Gibb recorded in 1980 that captured the hearts of millions and spawned
decades of requests for further collaborations. With Guilty Pleasures,
Streisand has managed to avoid charges that she's past her peak, as
evidenced on the gorgeous love song "Letting Go."
