Liza Minnelli - Live in New York 1979--The Ultimate Edition '2022

Tracks list

       Start spreading the news: Liza Minnelli's long-lost live album recorded
in the very heart of New York, New York is getting the deluxe vinyl and even
more deluxe CD treatment from Real Gone Music and Second Disc Records! When the
Oscar, Emmy, and Tony-winning superstar (and future Grammy Legend) took the
stage at the legendary Carnegie Hall on September 4, 1979, the concert was
already a hotly-anticipated event. It would be the first of eleven consecutive
shows through September 14 - the longest run in the Hall's history. Not only
that, but every show in the five-level, 2,804-seat venue was sold out. Liza had
the foresight to record three nights of concerts; two years later, in 1981, she
began selling the limited release on vinyl at her live dates. The Live at
Carnegie Hall double album preserved Liza's electrifying, roof-raising evening
from start to finish, including definitive versions of familiar showstoppers
such as John Kander and Fred Ebb's "Cabaret," "But the World Goes 'Round," and
"Theme From 'New York, New York'" But, deprived of proper retail distribution,
the album never reached a wide audience...until now! It even gets better,
though: Liza kept those pristine multitrack tapes of the three nights recorded
at Carnegie Hall. The tapes revealed a treasure trove of performances not
included on the original double album including James Taylor's "Everybody Has
the Blues," Kander and Ebb's "Arthur in the Afternoon" and "Mr. Cellophane" (the
latter sung by future Dreamgirls star Obba Babatunde), a Minnelli/Babatunde duet
of Cole Porter's "You Do Something to Me," the funky disco jam "Dance Across the
Floor," and even a beautiful nod from Liza to her mother, Judy Garland, with a
verse of "On the Atchison, Topeka, and the Santa Fe." These tapes have been
painstakingly restored and beautifully mixed by acclaimed engineer Ted Carfrae
(Doris Day, Cilla Black) for this first-ever COMPLETE presentation of Liza's
Carnegie Hall show from curtain up to curtain down. Live in New York 1979: The
Ultimate Edition is available on 3 CDs, all of which overflow with showbiz
sizzle: one disc with Mike Milchner's remastered version of the original vinyl
release, which premieres on CD, and two discs with the never-before-released
complete show. This deluxe edition also features an expanded booklet with new
introductions by both Ms. Minnelli and Great American Songbook champion Michael
Feinstein, both of whom served as executive producers for this release, plus
photos of the artist and liner notes from reissue producers Joe Marchese and
Charles L. Granata, and exclusive tributes from Liza's friends and collaborators
inside a gorgeous, 8-panel digipak boasting the Warhol portrait. Again, NONE of
this material has ever been available at music retail...this is indeed the
ultimate Liza package!
