The follow-up to her 2012 set Release Me, this one features an assortment of rare and unreleased tracks from throughout her iconic career — including three collaborations with none other than Willie Nelson (“I’d Want It To Be You”), Kermit the Frog (“Rainbow Connection”) and Barry Gibb (“If Only You Were Mine)”.

More on the set:

With songs by Burt Bacharach, Hal David, Barry Gibb, Paul Williams, Randy Newman, Michel Legrand and Alan & Marilyn Bergman, Harold Arlen, and Carole King, Barbra describes Release Me 2 as, “A lovely walk down memory lane…a chance to revisit, and in some cases, add a finishing instrumental touch to songs that still resonate for me in meaningful ways.”
