    I saw this special when it came on in 1972. I remember thinking "it can't get any better than this!" So when I popped in the DVD, I was a bit leary the show might be dated. Quite to the contrary! Liza is simply dazzling--bristling with talent and enthusiasm. The songs are brilliant. The only possible weakness is Bob Fosse's choreography. Though it shown with brilliance at times, I didn't feel it was the best of his best, and there were moments of datedness and weakness. But his direction of the special was unequivocably rich and brilliant. Exciting, fast-moving, chic and not at all cheap or tawdry. Genius!

    Can you imagine Britney Spears or Jessica Simpson trying to come up with a full hour of "showstoppers" like this? Fun from start to finish. She is the last of the Hollywood royalty, it's all downhill from here folks!

    I loved every minute from beginning to end. I saw Liza live at the Music Hall in Detroit the summer of 2006. I was tickled to watch her so alive and vibrant on stage with all new material, too; wish I had that performance on a DVD. So great to watch Liza with a Z over and over again. FIVE BIG STARS....I LOVED IT.
