Streisand Superman in Bloomington, MN

Appearing only seven months after
A Star Is Born
,
Streisand Superman
seemed to continue much of its
rock
-oriented feel, even including several songs that had been intended for the film. It was unusual in featuring all recently written songs, many first recorded here.
Streisand
co-wrote the rockish
"Don't Believe What You Read,"
an attack on her negative press coverage, while
Alan Gordon
contributed both the
disco
-ish
"I Found You Love"
and the album's Top Ten single
ballad
"My Heart Belongs to Me."
seemed to be an unusually personal album for the singer, reflecting her feelings and viewpoints. That did not make it one of her best, however. ~ William Ruhlmann
