Synopsis

Album Description

The three-time Tony Award-winning actor and playwright(Torch Song Trilogy, La Cage Aux Folles, Independence Day, Mrs. Doubtfire, Bullets Over Broadway) releases a performance album that displays the multiple dimensions of his very special talent. Recorded live at New York's Bottom Line, this provocative album includes stand-up comedy, two compelling dramatic monologues, and Harvey's distinctive musical style. Hilarious, moving and completely entertaining, this album is destined to be a classic in the vein of Lenny Bruce and George Carlin.

CD Reviews

Fight on, Harvey!

Stephen J. Voss | Pearland, TX USA | 06/24/2000

(5 out of 5 stars)

"With caustic wit and a gravelly voice that would make Tallulah jealous, Harvey Fierstein sings and talks through personal and public issues. He is the man your parents warned you about, and the one your friends should hear. In addition to original songs which he delivers with feelings of love and anger, Harvey dishes up an honest version of the old "Frankie and Johnnie", which I had only heard before in a VERY edited fashion. This album is not for the shy, faint-of-heart, or rabid conservative. Harvey's message is simple: gay people are human beings, deserving of life, liberty and the pursuit of a fabulous life, we're tired of oppression, and we're not going to take it any more. Should be part of your collection!"

Best CD Ever!
