Liberace without orchestration or (I presume) costumes. At home, with his grand piano, and a set of excellent songs. Liberace without the presentation is very much like Liberace Unplugged. What seems to be a kitsch type of record is actually a beautiful album. "Smoke Gets In Your Eyes" is splendid, as well as "How Deep Is The Ocean." One would think he may throw in a Chopin here in this set, but it's very much the Great American Songbook, done by the flamboyant pianist. He's a good musician, and here he just turns off the visuals and showbiz galore, and it's just music for him and you, the listener.
