LOS ANGELES, USA (AP) —

Barbra Streisand is making history with her new album.

Billboard says Streisand’s latest release, Partners, debuted on top of the charts, making her the only recording artist to issue No 1 albums in six consecutive decades.

The 72-year-old singer thanked her fans in a statement Wednesday, saying she appreciates their energy and support.

Partners, which hit stores last week, is a collection of duets featuring such talents as Lionel Richie, Stevie Wonder, Michael Buble and John Mayer.

Streisand’s first No. 1 album came out almost 50 years ago: People topped the charts in October of 1964. Her other top albums include The Way We Were, A Star is Born, The Broadway Album, and Love is the Answer.
