As we inch closer* to Barbra's semicentennial year - I'd like to wish ALL of you a very HAPPY and HEALTHY New Year.
2011 has been a wonderful year for fans. We've had "What Matters Most" - Barbra's latest recording. "My Mother's Curse" was filmed - and will be released in 2012. Barbra has brought more awareness to Women's Heart Disease. Great contests where fans got to meet Barbra at award shows... and on the set of the new movie... win signed albums and books. Barbra revealed that she's going to do "Gypsy" (let's hope THAT still happens). Barbra "Tweeted" about things she cared about. She sang at The Grammy Awards for the first time in decades. Then there was the "Elle" magazine feature where Barbra was honored as part of the "Women In Film" celebration. Numerous TV and print interviews. Barbra hinted at recording a DUETS album in the future... and so much more.
I look forward to bringing you all the latest news during Barbra's 50th year with Columbia Records.
All the very best --
Craig
