It only contains songs from various Broadway musicals . In the previous albums she had already published melodies from musicals, but these alternated with jazz standards . A comparable album to Simply Streisand was not to appear again until 1985 with The Broadway Album . Musical composer Richard Rodgers wrote a dedication for the cover of the album. Simply Streisand was awarded a gold record, but Barbra Streisand's first album did not reach the top ten of the album charts in the USA. The 12th place was noted as the highest ranking.
