Liza Minnelli’s rare tapes

Liza Minnelli (pictured) showed up at her neighbor Bruce Roberts‘ Beverly Hills door late one night nearly a decade ago saying, “I just feel like singing.” Minnelli relaxed on a couch, while Billy Stritch played keyboard, and Liza sang 20 old standards as Roberts tape-recorded the session. Last year, Roberts found the tapes in an old box and realized he had found gold. “They were brilliant. So I tweaked them up,” Roberts told us. “It’s like having Liza singing in your living room.” The duo signed a deal with Decca in November. The album “Confessions” will be released tomorrow.
