For her 1980 album Guilty, Barbra Streisand solicited the help of Bee Gee Barry Gibb. The Brothers Gibb were on top of the songwriting world, having just accomplished the feat of writing all five songs in the Top Five in 1978. It became the top album of Streisand's career.
The title song (a Streisand-Gibb duet) won the Grammy for Best Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal. "Woman in Love" was a smash hit that was #1 for three weeks. "What Kind of Fool", another duet with Gibb, was another big hit and "Promises" is a great song that was popular on the Adult Contemporary chart. These four lead tracks gave the album powerful airplay and exposure.
The album was #1 for three weeks and #2 for nine. It spent 17 weeks in the Top Ten and 49 weeks on the chart. It has sold five million copies in the United States alone and has a Track Rating* of 9.06. Streisand won an American Music Award for Favorite Rock Female Vocalist for this album. It was nominated for Grammies for Album of the Year, Record of the Year "Woman in Love" and Best Female Vocal Performance.
