Three good performances I saw in person...... hmmmm. The best singer I ever saw 'live' was without doubt, Bette Midler. I saw her every night for a week at the London Palladium in the late 70s. She was electrifying.... moved the audience emotionally, and had them shouting for more.

The best theatre performance I ever saw was Michael Crawford and Sarah Brightman in 'Phantom Of The Opera' in 1986. They were both good, but Crawford was fantastic. I saw him do the show a number of times. The last performance in 1988 in New York. By then, he was playing the part to perfection. I have seen a couple of other actors playing the part, none as good as him. I have seen great singers, better than Michael play the Phantom. None have that emotional impact he brought to the role. I was fascinated back in 1986, when I saw him in the show, that he varied how he delivered the songs, at different performances. Like he was searching for perfection. It was so sad the film took so long to be made, and Michael was too old by then. He should have been immortalized on film. The guy who played the Phantom in the film ruined it for me..... he bellowed the songs. Just terrible IMO.
