Title: She's No Elaine Stritch
Review: Seeing Bea on Broadway pales in comparison to Elaine Stritch's one-woman show, "At Liberty". But we're not here to review the show, only the recording. And again, this recording pales next to the 2-disc set that captures the ENTIRE Stritch performance. This 1-cd recording captures a good deal of Bea's rather pat, pre-digested self-congratulatory performance, but missing is perhaps the funniest section of the show, her Sophie Tucker routine and the hilarious Tucker song, "You've Got To Stay Young To Be Healthy (And I'm the Healthiest Gal in Town"). The others numbers performed are all right, but for someone who so adores Lotte Lenya and that lady's unique performance style (Lenya did volumes with a very limited instrument), Bea just doesn't show that she learned enough of Lenya's technique all that time they shared a dressing room doing "The Threepenny Opera". The recording, like the show, is a disappointment.
