What's your favorite Liza Minnelli studio album?

Any of them other than perhaps the soundtrack to Cabaret (not listed) sell? I think of her as a performer who sings, but not so much a singer. She’s like Merman. Her vouce is harsh and she goes flat in the midst of her wobbly vibrato like Merman. It all works in performance in part due to power and acting out the song, but for my taste (and apparently a lot of people) not as a recording artist- like Merman.

😂 I'm just not that Gay

The Singer and Tropical Nights are just awful. She's not a pop singer because she can't modulate her voice to make the songs work for her. She's a belter and that's really all she can do.

Streisand did better with pop because she has a better instrument and more control, but even she fell on her face a number of times trying to do that genre.

Streisand did pop pretty good! Lol- albums like Stony End and Guilty are full of great tracks- others as well. Streisand could sing almost anything. Of course she blows it from time to time. But in total, almost every album she has recorded has a few good tracks and usually almost all. She was not as much a hit maker as a recording artist who sold albums not singles.

Christ.

"Liza with a Z"

What the fuck is wrong with this OP?

R5 is Losing Her Mind

R5, that would count as live album, although I think it was recorded during the soundcheck immediately prior to the live television performance.

I lke Trop Nights. My parents had it & i’d play it. Sorta Disco- ish. Not good - pure camp. Don’t know much else - results was ok.

I'm gonna need a link to the metal cover of Losing My Mind, OP.

The Carnegie Hall album.

R9, I fucked up - it's a cover of "Twist In My Sobriety". I was so tired when I posted this thread, I messed the fuck up.

Here it is:

[quote] The Carnegie Hall album.

That's a live album, boo. This thread is about studio albums, as specified in the title. But good to know that's your favorite (no snark)!

Why are gay me so stupid?

I was mainly questioning the choice of studio albums only, which of course is in the purview of the estimable OP. It IS like saying, "Which of these stinkers is the best now that I've taken the only truly good one out?"

But we are here to vote on polls and I love Liza before 1978 even though "Come Saturday Morning" is so bad I'm on the floor laughing at the title track alone.

Love the thread.

Don't Drop Bombs, R13!

RESULTS, as it has that timeless yet quintessential 80s PetShop Boys magic ✨

R13 hi gay me! Stop calling yourself stupid- love yourself as only you - & Liza- can
