Liza Minnelli taped an episode of Sammy Davis Jr's television show "Sammy and Co." in the summer of 1975, while she briefly appeared in the Broadway musical Chicago, substituting for the ailing Gwen Verdon. Also appearing on the broadcast were Chita Rivera and Stephanie Mills.
In this clip, Liza--at the top of her game--sings her solo version of "My Own Best Friend."
Superb!!!!!

Saw her performance in Chicago where she delivered this song in the very same way - solo! Regretted missing Verdon and Rivera do the number, but, hey. . . I saw LIZA!
