Copy notes: initials on cover

Barbra Streisand’s Stoney End marks a distinct moment where her voice meets a more contemporary, rock-influenced sound, guided by producer Richard Perry and the sophisticated arrangements of Gene Page, Claus Ogerman, and Perry Botkin Jr. The album blends emotive storytelling with a palette of acoustic textures, featuring songs like "If You Could Read My Mind" and the title track "Stoney End," which showcase Streisand’s adaptability beyond her Broadway and traditional pop roots. The cover art, created by Barry Feinstein and Tom Wilkes, complements the album’s fresh direction with a subtle but striking visual statement. This 1971 pressing offers a solid vintage experience for those interested in Barbra’s evolution during this period. The vinyl is graded VG+, indicating it has some light surface marks or paper scuffs typical of everyday play but nothing that should interfere significantly with listening. With mixing and engineering handled by Bob Breault, Glen Kolotkin, Sy Mitchell, and others, the sound balances clarity and warmth within the soft rock and focused listening framework. The 12-inch format suits collectors keen on a fuller presentation, and the album’s blend of acoustic ensemble arrangements rewards attentive ears—proving that even a star known for show tunes can find a groove in rock without missing a beat.
