This is the recording of Joan Crawford's April 8, 1973, live appearance at New York City's Town Hall, in an event hosted by John Springer. First LP contains clips of Joan's greatest film performances. Second LP is Joan's interview with Springer.
John Springer's notes from the back cover:
Sunday night, April 8, 1973, at Town Hall, New York. Who could know then that it would be the last official public appearance of Joan Crawford?
It was one of the nights in the Legendary Ladies series where Greats of the Film World were paid tribute by a showing of most memorable scenes from their finest pictures. And then the Lady herself was there -- the Goddess in the flesh -- greeted by standing, screaming, bravoing ovations. Bette Davis was first, then Myrna Loy and Sylvia Sidney. Later would come Rosalind Russell, Lana Turner and others.
But this night was Joan Crawford's -- one never to be forgotten by the lucky few who were able to share it. It was a night filled with memories as Flaemmchen and Mildred Pierce, Crystal and all the others in the Crawford gallery had their moment on screen. And then it was Joan herself -- lively and funny, candid and human, talking about herself in a way she had never done before.
That night was recorded -- and that's what this album is. It's Joan Crawford the way we all want to remember her.
