Album artwork for Live in New York 1979 by Liza Minnelli

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. (This record stood until 1987, when an artist played three straight weeks of sold-out shows there. That artist? Liza Minnelli.) Liza had the foresight to record three nights of concerts; two years later, in 1981, she began selling the limited release 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’” as well as fresh versions of contemporary pop and classic Broadway standards from luminaries including George and Ira Gershwin, Jule Styne and Stephen Sondheim, Barry Manilow, and Melissa Manchester.

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 additional photos, liner notes, and exclusive tributes from Liza’s friends and collaborators inside a gorgeous, 8-panel digipak boasting the Warhol portrait. Those little town blues will surely melt away as you relive this once-in-a-lifetime evening with an extraordinary artist at the thrilling height of her powers.
