I’m 66 years old. Fifty years ago my mother told me she bought us tickets to see Liberace at the Garden State Art Center (in NJ). I said, “who’s that?”.. She said - “an incredible entertainer”. She was right. I was mesmerized by his incredible talent, his wardrobe, the car and his engaging rapport with the audience. It was a night I have never forgotten and my first experience with pure genius. I’ve been a devout fan ever since.. ❤️

Well, most of his costumes and jewelry are displayed at Michael Jackson's old house in Las Vegas. They are now owned by Liberace's foundation. He DID give a certain amount of them away before he died and most of those were auctioned off when the people he gave them too eventually died and their greedy families wanted the money.

When my wife and I were living in Melbourne in 1984 to November 1986 we saw Liberace in both Melbourne and Sydney at the Opera House. After his show in Melbourne we got to talk with Liberace and several of us were invited up to his hotel suite in which there was a grand piano. He sat and played all sorts of music from straight classical to jazz. There was nothing in his repertoire that he couldn`t play. Such a gifted and talented man.He was very charming and kept telling the outlandish jokes and then he would play. I dont know how long we were honoured to have been in his company . Thats one memory we will take to our grave. There are no entertainers anymore. They have all gone to the great concert hall in the sky.

I played the piano for 20 years & I LOVED Liiberce (still do). My boyfriend got us subscription tickets for seeing concerts at 'Garden States Arts Center'. Every year during the summer series, we got tickets to see a Liberace - & other classical & rock groups. It was about year 6 of seeing Liberace & the Dancing Waters & my man Jim, leaned over to me during one of the musical breaks, where Liberace invited the audience to come on down to the stage, & see his diamonds. He said if I didn't go down to see him at the end of this conversation with the audience, he'd never take me again. I always dressed for the occasion & realized these women going down the main aisle, were my grandmother's age. They walked very slowly, some with walkers or canes. I scampered down a side aisle (I was young) & was the first to reach the stage. It was so cool! He did his routine of "do you want to see my diamonds?". Of course, I said. His orchestra started playing a Strauss waltz, & he invited me on stage to dance with him. He helped me up the stage stairs and we walzted together. He was GOOD! And smelled good. (Don't care what his sexual orientation was, he's was a child prodigy, & put on a great show.!!!) It was probably more exciting than my wedding day. I saw the Beatles at Shea Stadium in '65, the Stones in '67 & this Liberace concert surpassed the great groups & artists I had seen. He was such a talented & versitile performer & I got such a kick out of him. Especially THAT night! Rest in Peace, Liberace.💔

G Town Dave - you know what was cool? When we danced (see my comment above - or below?), I did not at all feel like I was dancing with a queen. He had strength, pulled me on to the stage, was wonderful, & very funny & polite. And quite manly! 🤔

Not taking anything away from Liberace's remarkable gifts, but check out great classical pianists who also play without sheet music, much more difficult pieces, in 90 minute performances.

A master showman and an incredibly accomplished pianist. The ACCURACY here is astounding. Not a note missed. Not a note wrong. Liberace is a nation treasure. And although it was many years in the making - he was finally free at the end to be HIMSELF and the fans embraced him.

I started piano at 4. After A few times through a music chart I did it by ear 👂. If you start early it just becomes words in a poem. I r 68 n still play a lot. Made a living at it for a couple decades. It is like nothing else. Loved Victor Borga as well. They were gifts to the planet. Glad for the youtube living history book.

My Wife and I saw him at Lake Tahoe in 1980. Those who did not see him perform missed a chance to witness greatness. Not only as a real human being but as a performer extraordinaire, an artist, and absolutely brilliant pianist. There will never be another like him and well there should not be. I mean that in a very good way,, his sexual orientation has nothing what-so-ever to do with his brilliance and his contributions to mankind.
