You have got to have this album. Liza is in great form. The songs are fun and energetic, and the audience's enthusiasm is just as energetic! I got so caught up in this album, I was sorry when it ended. I've listened to it over and over. I absolutely love it. There's no one like Liza!

Liza was sensational in this record-breaking engagement. I attended the first and last 1991 performances and also the final 1992 encore engagement performance, and she got 'em on their feet every time at the end. Another peak in her rollercoaster career, this CD captures a lot of electrifying moments. Check out the video and laser disc as well, as the show was a visual knockout to boot.

This CD is Liza's Radio City Music Halls great Concert.I seen this show at the Star Lake Amphitheater,and She was fantastic as always. From "Teach Me Tonight"to New york New York," Liza gives all She got. My favorite is ,"Live Alone and Like it." "Sara Lee" is hysterical. And when Liza comes out for the second Act,and her Demon Divas Get into the Act,its so original. The Man's medley is great,but the show stopper is when Liza goes into "Natural Man." This was Liza's Third Big Come Back. Were wainting Liza for the next,and I'm sure you won't dissapoint us.

I had the distinct pleasure of sitting in the audience at Liza's "Stepping Out at the Music Hall" concert. It was for my 39th birthday in May of 1991. Liza has the ability to sing every song as if it were written especially for her. And she also made me feel as if she was singing directly to me. This album is good, even with the cuts. Her opening number at the concert was "The Nearness of You." and 2 of Aznavour's songs were deleted from the album as well. I know that time constraints were a factor in making the album, so I've forgiven the cuts. And overall, listening to "Liza Live" brings back some wonderful memories. She remains a survivor, and I hear her new show, "Liza's Back" opened to rave reviews at the Beacon in June of this year. For her fan's sake, I hope she takes her new show on the road.

When Liza Minnelli sang at Radio City Music Hall in 1992, her voice was a little raspy around the edges, but she gives in all she's got. My favorite song on this compact disc is the Reprise version of "Stepping Out," because she starts tap-dancing and the audience cheers her on. When Liza sings "Seeing Things," she sings about her father (director Vincente Minnelli), and her mother (singer/actress Judy Garland). That is a very touching song, and I think should be considered a classic.
