Barbra Streisand looks back on her remarkable recording career with Evergreens: Celebrating Six Decades on Columbia Records. The vocalist's 1963 debut The Barbra Streisand Album took home the Grammy Award for Album of the Year as well as Best Vocal Performance - Female, inaugurating a tenure on Columbia Records that has (so far!) encompassed 36 studio albums as well as live sets, collections, box sets, cast recordings, and soundtracks. This new retrospective features 22 songs hand-picked by Streisand, almost entirely eschewing her hit singles in favor of songs which were chosen by the artist to "exemplify her emotional connection to these melodies and lyrics - each holding a special place in her heart and memory." Spanning The Barbra Streisand Album through 2018's striking Walls, these songs add up to an alternate history of Streisand in the studio, taking listeners through each of her many eras.
