Throughout her impressive recording career, the amazing Ms Minnelli has stayed true to her own style while happily responding to the changes in popular culture taking place around her. Littered with classics and not a few surprises (including several tracks produced by the Pet Shop Boys) this sumptuous two CD collection of studio and concert recordings – taking in the era 1973-92 - presents Liza Minnelli the jazz singer, the disco diva, the pop princess, the movie star, the cabaret queen; all roles that, uniquely, she has made her own.
Liza Minnelli: Celebrity, actress, singer, icon, superstar. A headline maker in every sense of the word – whether it’s belting out Beyonce’s ‘Single Ladies’ in Sex Of The City 2 or belting her ex-husbands, the name Liza Minnelli screams ‘Hollywood Legend’.
On September 6th, Salvo is proud to release the definitive 2 CD set of Liza’s singing career – ‘Cabaret & All That Jazz’. It’s a wonderful compilation spanning 40 years of material and chronicles Liza’s versatile talents; talents that have acquired her a global fan club from the Pet Shop Boys to Donna Summer, My Chemical Romance and Queen to Rufus Wainwright.
Liza has always been a most versatile artist as this collection shows. She has stayed true to her own style and responded to changes in popular culture at the same time. She’s an innovator and a true original and Liza can do pop & the popular song effortlessly. ‘Cabaret… And All That Jazz’ is a tremendous 2 disc compilation that embraces Liza Minnelli as pop star, chanson, cabaret queen, movie star and disco goddess. The breadth of material present is phenomenal and it’s a collection littered with gems: songs from the classic ‘Liza With A Z’ album; the synth-pop greatness of her work with the Pet Shop Boys on the album ‘Results’ with that wonderful cover of Stephen Sondheim’s ‘Losing My Mind’ (UK Chart #6); the Charles Aznavour penned ‘There Is A Time’; a really great take on Bill Wither’s ‘Use Me’ from 1973’s ‘The Singer’ album that some of London’s cooler funk DJs were dropping back in the 90s at seminal clubs like The Wag; the Studio 54 (where Liza would hold court with Andy Warhol) influenced strut of ‘Jimi Jimi’ from 1977’s ‘Tropical Nights’, right through to Liza’s signature tune ‘New York, New York’ from the Martin Scorsese film of the same name that she made her own.
‘Cabaret… And All That Jazz’ like its singer, needs no further introduction. Enjoy.

This seems to be a strange compilation of music Liza recorded for Columbia over the years. Not owning this compilation but looking at the track listing, it seems to include a large portion of the never-before-released-on-CD "Live At The Winter Garden" (though not in the original album order).
