How is a Barbra Streisand/Bob Dylan duet possibly going to sound? This is not a question that I have ever pondered, but we’re about to get an answer anyway. Streisand and Dylan both arrived at fame in early-’60s New York, but their career paths and voices are very, very different. Now, the two legends, both of whom are 83 years old, are about to join forces on a new version of “The Very Thought Of You,” a pop standard that’s older than either of them. It’ll appear on Streisand’s forthcoming duets album The Secret Of Life: Partners, Volume 2, which has all sorts of other fascinating collaborators as well.
