LIBERACE The Essential Recordings: A Swooning Ode to Excess

Hold onto your sequins, because Liberace is back with a dazzling collection of his essential recordings. This album is more flamboyant than a peacock on roller skates, with each track serving up a deliciously extravagant feast for the ears.

From the moment the ivory keys start tinkling on "The Liberace Boogie," you know you're in for a wild ride. Liberace's virtuosic flair and showmanship are on full display throughout the album, as he effortlessly transitions from tender ballads to bombastic showstoppers.

Tracks like "Candelabra Concerto" and "Piano Pizzazz" showcase Liberace's jaw-dropping technique and flair for the dramatic, while "Glitter Galore" and "Rhinestone Rhapsody" are pure campy fun. But it's on the hauntingly beautiful "Moonlight Melancholy" where Liberace truly shines, proving that he was more than just an over-the-top showman.

With its sparkling production and irresistible charm, LIBERACE The Essential Recordings is a testament to the enduring legacy of one of music's most flamboyant icons. Whether you're a die-hard Liberace fan or a newcomer to his extravagant world, this album is sure to leave you spellbound. So grab your feather boa, pour yourself a martini, and let Liberace's music transport you to a world of glitter, glamour, and pure musical magic.
