No Hideaway Here
September 6, 2005 -
For
the
second
time
is as
many
years,
Barbra
is
once
again
lighting
up
Times
Square
with a
super-sized
billboard
advertising
a new
album.
This
time,
it's
Guilty
Pleasures
occupying
the
prized
real
estate
atop
the
Virgin
Records
store
entrance
on
Broadway.
The
new
billboard,
which
shouts,
Barbra
and
Barry
Back
Again
is
located
in the
exact
spot
where
Barbra's
The
Movie
Album
hung
in
2003,
almost
two
years
ago to
the
day.
The
jumbo
ad
includes mentions
the
album
cuts,
Stranger
In A
Strange
Land,
Come
Tomorrow
and
Night
of My
Life.
The
Guilty
Pleasures
billboard
is the
latest
in a
series
of
extraordinary
marketing
efforts
the
folks
at
SONY
are
putting
forth
to
promote
this
sure-to-be
mega
hit
album.
If
you're
in
town,
the
billboard
can be
seen
on
Broadway
near
47th
street.
