Streisand Live at San Francisco's Hungry i Nightclub April 1, 1963 (early show)

[@tomtomlinson4826]

Her voice and delivery here are beyond even her usual perfection.

[@michaelrg3836]

Early Barbra is everything! Thank you.

[@BrettTwinSavage]

So young, almost 21, yet she'd been on her own for almost 6 years! She got to where she is with raw talent, fortitude, friends, and the subway.

[@jcarterjoseph9066]

Absolutely stunning! Studio executives from Columbia Records were afraid this was too 'raw' for the public. Boy, were they ever wrong! No wonder she demanded, and got, complete creative control from the start.

[@lenwelch2195]

To think she had this much stage presence and deportment at this age is astonishing !Some people grow into the people they become. Barbra was Barbra out of the womb.

[@stephaniestanley8041]

The audio quality is remarkable. My Coloring Book and Cry Me a River are her most stunning performances from that night. This is very special treat. ❤

[@richardpearce1114]

Oh Matt thank you, what an incredible Christmas present. You lovely man!

[@stevec1945]

Pretty awesome to hear her live back at the beginning. Thanks for posting!

[@wotan10950]

My parents saw her in the early-1960s at a nightclub in New York. The following day, my dad went on and on about this girl who was sure to be a star someday. As for me, I recall watching her early specials on our little black & white tv. I’ve been a fan ever since. My own now-adult children could never understand the fascination. I said, you to understand that she was utterly unique, there was no one else like her.

[@barbraarchives5604]

@@wotan10950 I love that story !!

[@wotan10950]

@ I’m glad! It was a long time ago, and my parents are both gone. Feel free to erase this video, but I’ve loved Streisand for most of my life, and when it was my daughter’s birthday, I thought the lyrics to “Look at that Face” were so appropriate. Barbra never sang it again, although I wish she had. I couldn’t find a karaoke version of it, so I just used Color Me Barbra and copied her phrasing! Luckily I can carry a tune, but I can’t hold those notes as long as Barbra can! (that’s my late mother in the chair) kzbin.info/www/bejne/qH_cnpWko65rntEsi=flBiCxT89bgGnZ-f

Another early gem from Ms Streisand, with her young, strong voice, which soon became incomparable. And now more than 60(!) years later, we're still listening to new, quality recordings from her (i.e., "Love Will Survive"). Amazing!

[@lesarcs2317]

thanks for sharing 😊Babs freak for over 50 years - long journey through music (LPs CDs DVDs) movies concerts etc. Iconic unique legendary Barbra.

[@popboy0]

OMG ! this is incredibly amazing! She was not even 21 and she sounded like a consumated experienced singer! Thanks, Thanks, Thanks!!!

[@JohnJones-fg1dd]

I marvel at her vocal control. Thanks for posting. So enjoyed!

[@eterneh489]

Thank you! The sound quality is so GREAT!!! I had this on a bootleg CASSETTE which shows you how long ago that was! This is just wonderful! As a HUGE fan, thank you, thank you, thank you!! Happy New Year!

[@Clarinetman62]

Me too

@@Clarinetman62 You mean "Cornet Man" don't you? (I assume you get the Streisand reference?)

Best Christmas gift… thrilled!

[@lakephillip]

Thank You so much. Wonderful Gift.

[@riccardo50001]

It's so wonderful to hear these earlier, more stylized songs in her initial style. Thanks for posting. Her last song is a knock and emonstrates in incredible ability to tell a story which I've always loved about her singing.

[@burkster8997]

Thank you so much! First time I’ve heard this. What a treat for Christmas. Love you Barbra.

[@billbill5326]

Matt, thanks for this concert upload. Cry Me A River is a Top 5 Barbra Streisand song of mine. ❤❤❤

[@fabiennebernard1840]

Merci pour ce beau travail 🙏🩵💙

[@Iskowitz]

Wonderful addition with improved audio quality! Please add the late show recording soon.

[@slc2466]

Just watched the 4K of "Funny Girl" recently- what a mega-talent, killing it with every song and scene in one of the great performances- Brava, Barbra!

[@tapking40]

❤❤❤❤she should release this immediately 💯🌟

[@gus24x24]

Wow thanks

[@johnmoreland6089]

Such a great recording! Thanks for sharing this!

[@liampassmore501]

the sheer lift in the voice is crazy. add the nasal bray and vibrato and the result is electric. you can see why the world went so crazy for it all.

[@Ivan-ft1gg]

Que hermoso poder escuchar y disfrutar de este Show de Barbra. La amo.🧡

[@elio22222]

Omg Matt!!! Thank you! This is just what I needed today!! How on earth did she come up with the story about the girl and her sister? She told that one in central park too if I recall correctly 😅

[@jennyrebecca4daysold]

'Like a Straw In The Wind' is such a showstopper.

[@westtexastalent]

I have this album but sounds so much better here.

[@chrisn7259]

Thanks so much for posting this, it is a special treat. There is no wonder she ripped pop vocalizing a new one at this time, she was so thrilling and unique.

[@randazzo404]

OH Way Cool! Thank you Barbra.

[@michaelwiley7000]

Matt, thank you for this. Is there somewhere these remasters can be *cough* purchased?

[@italoman9]

Superstar, because of the genres of entertainment, and styles of acting and singing, that her career has traveled and progressed. And never “reinvented” herself-because all those genres and stylings were always within her but presented themselves at the different, best times. ❤🎶👍🎁

[@Monteponino]

I love this concert …. I even think I prefer this one than the Bon Soir ❤❤❤❤❤

[@jpnbronx323]

Fantastic ❤

[@singasong718]

Fantastic! Thanks!

[@barbraarchives5604]

You're welcome!

[@MikeIsaacson-os8db]

Wonderful! Thanks so much for this. I recall having one of the bootleg cds years ago, but I don't remember this song list. Was more than one performance recorded, and if so, was it the same set? Thanks again. What a historic treasure.

[@barbraarchives5604]

The original bootlegs rearranged the song order and cut the patter. I also have the second show. I might post that later.

[@fob1xxl]

People can mention any other singer they want, Whitney, Celine,Aretha, but NO ONE HAD THIS TALENT AT THIS AGE (EXCEPT JUDY) FACT !

[@Frenchmisto]

Wrong… Celine was already a big star in French speaking countries when she was 13 years old… fact!😅

[@kennethwilliams3182]

​@@FrenchmistoAretha was already a beast at this age..., this is awful.

[@Frenchmisto]

@ I wouldn’t say awful…. It’s just night club/broadway style. Aretha was very powerful and can’t be compared with Barbra

[@Apollo19713]

​@kennethwilliams3182 If you don't like Barbra, why are you here? Why don't you go listen to your noisy "beast"? 🥵🥵🥵🥵

[@gaylefranklin]

@@Apollo19713did you take any notice of the original comment? When the op decided to toss out names, they inadvertently set Barbara up to take the jabs that, because they’re a nobody, they deserve.

[@josephcollins6033]

Just wow. When she was truly great and not full of bull.
