Liza Minnelli.

 Liza sings mostly standards on this L/P but the arrangements and style are typically 70's style...this was recorded in 1970 just before she got the part of "Sally Bowles" in the Musical Film"Cabaret"....the songs are by "Kern" "Berlin" "Porter" "Arlen" "Mercer" "Gershwin" so you can see that its the American Songbook Theme.....They are definitely sung different....She does go a bit "frantic"at times but its definitely one of her better recordings !!
P.S. I love it when you get a selection of well known songs and they are arranged and performed entirely different from the originals and like nobody else's versions, and Liza and her arranger has just done that !!...Greaaaaaaaat !!!

Liza Minnelli

Another part of the Legend of Judy Garland 

This is Liza in the 70's 1973 to be exact so I recon that she made this after her Film "Cabaret"I think I'm safe saying that looking at the hair style !....It's a typical 70's style music with songs of the day and she does a good job on all of them...best tracks for me is "I'd Love You To Want Me"...and "Don't Let Me Be Lonely Tonight" !!

4. Oh Babe What Would You Say
5. You're So Vain
6. Where Is The Love

Liza Minnelli.

 This is Liza at her peak in voice and performance as it says on the cover "A Concert For Television"and its a good one...I believe you can get it on a DVD I've got it on a VHS recorded from the TV ! If anyone can remember that's the way we did it in the dark ages !!

P.S. As this is a live performance there are no gaps in the tracks so I have recorded them as Side 1 and Side 2....Great recording of "You've Let Yourself Go" equals the composer's recording "Charles Aznavour's"!!!!!

Liza Minnelli...320 Kbps


It amazes me is the title of this album and it certainly does amaze me...because Liza sounds like Barbra Streisand in her very early days...Particularly the albums  called "The Barbra Streisand Album" and "The Second Barbra Streisand Album"....Maybe the fact that the arrangements and both Barbra's and the above were produced by the same man"Peter Matz"....But now at this moment in time Barbra and Liza sound very different...I think that both singers where trying to find there own "Sound".....This L/P was recorded well before Liza's "Cabaret" film...
