Number 0ne Hit For Barbra & Neil.
Barbra Streisand and Neil Diamond recorded “You Don’t Bring Me Flowers” in 1978. Diamond reminisced about the recording session: “It was the two of us with a piano and we sang it, and they put the strings on it later. And just — I think two or three takes. And, you know, it was easy … I mean, she’s, you know, probably the greatest female singer of my generation.”Neil Diamond Barbra Streisand - You Dont Bring Me Flowers Anymore 1978
Dragnet was a long running radio and television police procedural drama, about the cases of a dedicated Los Angeles police detective, Sergeant Joe Friday, and his partners. The show takes its name from an actual police term, a Dragnet, meaning a system of coordinated measures for apprehending criminals or suspects. Dragnet was perhaps the most famous and influential police procedural drama in American media history. The series gave millions of Americans a feel for the boredom and drudgery, as well as the danger and heroism, of real life police work. Dragnet earned praise for improving the public opinion of police officers. Actor and producer Jack Webb's aims in Dragnet were for realism and unpretentious acting. He achieved both goals and Dragnet remains a key influence on subsequent police dramas in many media.
