Synopsis

Amazon.com

The Judy Garland Show: The Show That Got Away is a generous 74-minute look at the great entertainer at the peak of her post-film career. Though dismal ratings killed her variety show after its one season, in 1963-64, it gave her the chance to sing a wide variety of songs and share the stage with a number of great performers. Some of the show's milestones are included here: her performances of "Old Man River," "Battle Hymn of the Republic" (sung a few weeks after President Kennedy's assassination), and the medley of "Get Happy/Happy Days Are Here Again" with a young Barbra Streisand. The CD also includes a very funny "Boy Next Door" (it's not what you think), bits of dialogue, outtakes, sponsor announcements, and appearances by Lena Horne, Peggy Lee, and the teenage Liza Minnelli. Photos, song-by-song technical details, and notes by Garland historian Scott Schechter round out the package. --David Horiuchi

CD Reviews

Some fine moments from a legendary series

Burl Lampert | San Rafael, CA United States | 04/01/2002

(4 out of 5 stars)

"From the never-before- released, never aired first song of the first show ("Sunny Side Up") to the never-before-released, never aired finale of the final show ("Here's To Us"), this CD fascinates. The failed intros and uncompleted performance of "Something Cool" -also from the final taping- is ... well, fascinating. The change in her voice from the earliest cuts (notably "Liza") to the end is also telling, the difference in miking notwithstanding. The liner notes mention "Here's Top Us" as the " holy grail" of Garland fans, and boy, is he right! Certainly the most heartbreaking -and yet triumphant- performance I have ever heard from Judy. It was, after all these years of only hearing ABOUT that song, actually quite difficult for me to get through it, it is so charged with emotion. It is somrthing to behold, this collection, done with respect, love and technical skill. Enjoy."

The Best Audio Overview of Judy's Legendary TV Series

Gotta Have Music | USA | 01/16/2003

(5 out of 5 stars)

"It's all here, including the duets with fellow Legends, great solos, and Rare Outtakes that any true Garland fan would have killed for before this CD was released. Plus, the sound is superbly remastered in 24-bit digital sound, and there are rare COLOR photos in this FULL-COLOR Booklet included. And the CD runs a full 74 minutes. Get it, you'll love it."

HERE'S TO US! HERE'S TO JUDY! HERE'S TO THIS COLLECTION!!

JIMMY ANSLEY | MONGOMERY, AL USA | 03/15/2002

"This CD is a treasure. If you are not familiar with all of the older recordings, you will still love this collection. If you ARE familiar with most of its content, then you will absolutely flip!! This is the first CD (legitimate, that is) that has very carefully and wisely chosen selections of the very best there is to be had of Judy's television material. If you have the older boxed set of the selections from TJGS, this is the crowning "completer piece". This entire CD contains the very heart and soul of TJGS and is perhaps the closest thing to actually "being there" that we can attain. It has a sound (SUPERBLY REMASTERED!) and a feel to it that I have yet to experience with the other recordings. What else can I say?!!
It is a Garland collection unlike any other and you WILL BE PLEASED!! If a dollar value could be placed on the content, I would say that it is worth the price of the entire CD (and then some!) to hear her sing "Here's to Us" one more time!
Thank you Scott and to all the folks at Hip-O records for devoting the time and effort it took to bring this to life!!
This is what "becomes a legend most"!!"

Long time Judy Garland Fan/Collector VERY pleased with CD!

CHARLES TRIPLETT | HUDSON, NC USA | 03/17/2002

"Having been a Garland fan for over 30 years I found THE JUDY GARLAND SHOW "The Show that Got Away" not only to be very enjoyable but a great overview of her six months on CBS in her very own series. I was very happy with the songs on the album and feel they present a wide spectrum of the show, guests and the great talents of Miss Garland. Photos are clear, lovely, (great gowns Mr. Aghayan!), and many new and refreshing. Very happy with liner notes by Mr. Scott Schechter. Who could ask for anything more?! Charles Triplett, North Carolina"

The show that keeps on giving

charles nau | washington, dc United States | 03/15/2002

"For years, Garland fans had to depend on bootleg, scratchy audio and video tapes from the Judy Garland tv show. All agree now that those 26 shows, in tandem with the Carnegie Hall concert and the two specials leading up to the series (Judy, Frank & Dean and the Goulet-Silvers shows), were Judy at her very best, her most creative, her most everything. The show was sabotaged by two horrific monsters named Aubrey and Stromberg (who, for instance, told her she couldn't do a tribute to her murdered friend JFK because no one would remember him for more than a month), but thankfully their complete disregard for the show left the original "kinnies" in the hands of someone who knew their worth. Found in a locked New Jersey closet, they were transferred to Sid Luft who sold them to a small company called 32 records. After that, the usual litigation ensued but nearly all the shows have been released on video by Pioneer and a good portion of the audio tracks (some never boradcast) are coming out slowly but surely. This collection, while not as histortic as the Garland Duets culling, is still a thrill and not just because of its Garland and guests'(Peggy Lee, Tony Bennett, Streisand, Merman) songs--the sound quality is terrific. High point: "Here's to Us" the last song recorded on the cancelled show's last episode (tho not broadcast). Please, sir, more!"
