I love Liberace’s big smile. He has a great personality. I love that man. He and his brother look so much alike! I have been watching since I was a little girl. I always loved piano music. Rest In Peace, Liberace! You are truly loved and missed. ❤️🌹❤️

This is a great interview of a great man. I've been playing the piano since I was7, and I'm now 71. When folks ask me howbi learned to play, I tell them I had 4 teachers, Eddy Duchin, Carmen Cavallaro, Liberace, and Roger Williams. I used to set up my phonograph next to my piano, and play along with their records. To this day I can't read music, but I can play everything in the Great American Songbook and thousands of other songs. Thank you Liberace, I couldn't have done it without you.
So do l my late husband and ll. Great fans. all the nicest most talented stars are gone Jim reeves Elvis Matt monro patsy CLlne. NAT king Cole Dean martin etc
he was such a charming sweet warm man... he worked his tail off to be a success,,everyone wanted him in vegas to appear at their venues,,humble n gracious,, no job was beneath him ,, washing dishes b4 his great success,,,he has been so charitable to so many anonymously ..sharp mind for business,,never said anything negative about anyone,, he was so above that.. he knew everyone that was anyone,,brought so many smiles, laughs,,,,,very strong brave man.......great to see the uploads.n 26 dogs,,,,,,,magic of believing book changed his life
Heartbreaking to hear Liberace say "Benefits for diseases they haven't discovered yet" and he is probably sat there unknowing that he has the terrible HIV virus that would take him from us, So Sad.
It's such a shame the liberace museum in Las Vegas is closed. My husband and I were lucky enough to tour it and really enjoyed it. I would give anything for it to open again.
If he was alive now what a time he would have. To be allowed to be who he really was. Tht was ashame he couldn’t come out as being gay. A very humble man.
You know, when he was alive he set up the Liberace Foundation. It gives to very meaningful charity(s) that promote musical learning for the less advantaged, in many different ways. Then when he died, he left his fortune to that foundation charity he set up (equal to roughly 300 million dollars today). An incredibly loving human being indeed.
Thanks for sharing this great interview! It's good to see George again. I wonder if this was the last time they appeared together in front of an audience?
Whot amazing things to do with the flowers Libreans was so enterprising all his life his first love was his mother and music. He lived collecting all sorts of things for his meny homes.
Re: early, live television. I'm 70 years old and remember watching "Lee" as well as Oscar Levant on B&W TV. I remember Lee and his brother having a fight on live TV on time. As a musician myself, I have always thought Oscar to be the more brilliant. But, for showmanship, Lee was right up there with Victor Borge and even Chico Marx!
His necklace known as "The Gong" was for sale on eBay a few years back, 2014 maybe. I believe the seller wanted $115,000 for it from what I can recall.
I'd be interested to know if Jeff Sullivan, introduced at 7:24, ever hooked-up with Liberace. It may be my imagination, but I think Liberace had a difficult time maintaining concentration while looking at him. Either way there was chemistry. ;)
They talk about it in the movie. He had a botched face lift and the surgeon pulled his skin too tight. He couldn't even close his eyes all the way to go to sleep.
He's not wearing a single ring for this interview! That's not like Liberace at all! Must have thought the immense medallion was enough bling for that day...

I know I agree what an amazing personality he had
As well as being a great pianist and showman entertainer he was also a real nice guy a real. nice charming friendly personality.
He will only rest in peace if he accepted Jesus Christ into his heart, repented of his sins and turn away from sin.
He never had to think his responses over, always a direct answer.
Another reason I find him so fascinating.
Except when they asked if he was gay
What a cool, humble and full of humanity person he was.
Seemed to be that way. Rumors tell a different story.
@@hithere1590 Probably but remember that there are ill-intentioned people out there who always want others to see you other way.

That’s brilliant.
I just want to give him a hug-so charming, honest and generous.
Me too what a sweet man he was
So do l my late husband and ll. Great fans. all the nicest most talented stars are gone Jim reeves Elvis Matt monro patsy CLlne. NAT king Cole Dean martin etc
You were a wonderful showman and human being. Probably just a little before your time, but you made it all work anyway. RIP Gentle Man.
Thank you Liberace Girl for putting this on. So enjoy listening especially during these trying days!

I think Jeff was interested.....I like that Liberace is so laid back-amazing!
So nice of you to post this Jordan. He was a wonderful man and a true American original.
Never seen this interview before , there is so much footage out there waiting to be shown of Liberace
This is a new video.
Liberace was the greatest entertainer and man that ever lived his music had healing powers may he r I peace god bless himxxxxx
❤RIP Lee. you are forever remembered as a gentle soul. when i miss him, i play Send In The Clowns performed for the Queen of England 💃🏽
It’s amazing how much he and his brother looked alike. That beautiful smile they both had.
What a talented and delightful gentlemen!
Class act, all the way!!!
WOOOOW I LOVE THIS MAN!!
Heartbreaking to hear Liberace say "Benefits for diseases they haven't discovered yet" and he is probably sat there unknowing that he has the terrible HIV virus that would take him from us, So Sad.
He made the world a better place.
It's such a shame the liberace museum in Las Vegas is closed. My husband and I were lucky enough to tour it and really enjoyed it. I would give anything for it to open again.
If he was alive now what a time he would have. To be allowed to be who he really was. Tht was ashame he couldn’t come out as being gay. A very humble man.
Liberace more than paid it forward. Didn’t appreciate his gifting until i started watching his interviews. He was a good person.
He plays beautifully. Just a brilliant man.
Liberace offered such a smile that showed his desire to perform and have a lite fun. It is great to see the recorded material.
Any of his stuff is still just as valuable (moreso) today!
Great video of Lee. Thanks for sharing.
Wish he were here nowxxx
Thank you!!! :)))
You can tell he was in failing health in this interview. Very much a class act, a true gentleman, and a masterful, accomplished pianist.
How could you tell
You know, when he was alive he set up the Liberace Foundation. It gives to very meaningful charity(s) that promote musical learning for the less advantaged, in many different ways. Then when he died, he left his fortune to that foundation charity he set up (equal to roughly 300 million dollars today). An incredibly loving human being indeed.

Liberace was my favorite Entertainer!❤
Great interview. Legend.
This is a excellent video
❤💖

Channel 10-PBS here in Vegas
I cant get over how much that host sounds like Mike Douglas!
He was such a gracious man
Ihi
My left ear enjoyed this interview
I'd be interested to know if Jeff Sullivan, introduced at 7:24, ever hooked-up with Liberace. It may be my imagination, but I think Liberace had a difficult time maintaining concentration while looking at him. Either way there was chemistry. ;)
Johnson Steele wouldn't blame him
Johnson Steele i think liberace had private good looking male escourts he paid too be with most rich men do
Johnson Steele same. This was right after Liberace and Scott Thorson split
Liberace liked young, VERY YOUNG men, tall and blonde. This was not his type.
Jeff was very good looking...
I wasn't aware of George. After watching this, I looked him up and see he died the year after this video was made. :(
the word "Entertainer" should has his picture next to it..
Where did you find this ?.....Thank You so much !
Sam Lyons * there are 3 parts, watch them all!
He’s hilarious
His I'll Be Seeing You was used as closing music to the movie MISERY. Real really creepy!
👍🏼
He's great
Shame they only got the left side audio .
Li loved liberarchie
Whatever became of the young ambitious "Jeff" in this clip? He must be well over 60 today.
Crack addict
The producer in the gallery must be tearing his hair out about the flare on Liberace's necklace.
I dont think he ever blinked in this....
They talk about it in the movie. He had a botched face lift and the surgeon pulled his skin too tight. He couldn't even close his eyes all the way to go to sleep.
Too bad he never got to see social media exist - his answer to @16:27 seems to allude to an early form of live news coverage.
How many wigs are in this interview?
I liked Liberace
What… 48 years senior than his live in boy toy then adopted him. The guy was a predator period. Great showman on stage and at home.
Wonderful man who had the misfortune to be born in the wrong era.
He's not wearing a single ring for this interview! That's not like Liberace at all! Must have thought the immense medallion was enough bling for that day...
was he ever jealous of elton john?
George died the next year. I never cared for the candeloberas.
Liberace with an Afro
He never should have had that face-lift in 1980. It took away his big eyes and cheeks. That surgeon was a butcher.
Of course He flaunted himself..Out of the closet but never came out verbally :)
Liberace was gay ? I didn't see that coming 😅
Elisey myosin videos
Oof this was at the height of his plastic surgery addiction.
TrojanJustin right before his last one it appears. The Oscars later that year, he had the botched one.
