LIZA WITH A "Z" is recorded from her 1972 TV special.

Bubbling with life and energy as she dramatizes these songs, Liza Minnelli is here in her usual top form. Recently adorned with an Academy Award for her role in "Cabaret" two years earlier, the 26-year-old Minnelli performs these songs with a giggling joy and breathless desire, singing "Yes" in particular with such frantic zeal one fears she'll exhaust herself before this live concert reaches intermission.

But she wails without let up, belting out the emotional rollercoaster "It Was a Good Time" with terrific passion. Funky and raucous, her hot handling of "I Gotcha" is as soulful as her electric guitar and organ accompaniment. The songwriting team of Kander and Ebb, composers of "Cabaret," supply much of Minnelli's material, such as the anecdotal fun of "Ring Them Bells," which, like the stirring "Cabaret" medley, is especially suited to Minnelli's multi-faceted singing.
