If I could take one CD to a desert island... Submitted on: 2009-11-23 |
|
| I've been listening to this album/CD since I was 14. I'm 53 (tomorrow). For me, this is the best recording by anybody, ever recorded, anywhere. Beatles? Sinatra? Elvis? I'm a fan of them all, but no one but Judy Garland on this CD actually causes me to have a PHYSICAL reaction - every single time I listen to it. The hair on the back of the neck stands up, I get goosebumps, and 9/10 times I actually cry listening to it, although it also fills me with an overwhelming joy. This must sound crazy - to someone who hasn't heard it. She puts out so much - and the audience returns that same intensity back to her - you have to listen to the whole thing to understand. It's not a CD, it's an experience, and it will make you a fan of Judy Garland for the rest of your life. |

The Great Garland Submitted on: 2009-10-07 |

| The one album I would take to a desert island is "Judy At Carnegie Hall". No other live album has that "you are there" feeling like this one. Light some candles, have a glass of wine, sit back and prepare to be blown away. |

Miss Judy's Finest Hour!!!! Submitted on: 2009-04-24 |

Hard to believe, but forty-eight (48) years ago tonight, the greatest live concert EVER was held at New York's Carnegie Hall. It was two-plus
hours of pure dynamite and Ms. Garland was at the very top of her game!! If you've only heard about this concert and wondered why all the fuss about Judy, then buy this marvelous two-CD set. Judy was the STAR that night, but so was Mort Lindsey's magnificent orchestra!! His contribution cannot be overlooked. All in all, an absolutely superb performance by singer and supporting cast. BRAVO!! KUDOS!! TWENTY-FIVE STARS!! |

I had long ignored Judy Garland because I unjustly assumed she only did campy show tunes. Big mistake. Yes, she does do some obligatory Broadway hits (e.g. "That's Entertainment"); but her performance here is much more versatile than I expected. Most of my musical collection favors singers like Ella Fitzgerald, Billie Holiday, Sara Vaughan, and Nina Simone, etc. but Garland is a comfortable fit.
Best example: on disk 2 she sings "Stormy Weather" - a song made big by the likes of Ethel Waters and Lena Horne - both phenomenal singers themselves - but their versions are easily dwarfed by Garland's performance of Mort Lindsey's* arrangement of this classic blues standard. Garland's voice is a torrent of emotion that transforms the song from one of common heartache to one of profound and inescapable despair. (*Lindsey and his orchestra are impeccable and deserve a lot of credit for letting Garland shine at her brightest and making this show so unforgettable.)
Going back to Disk 1, there is another song - one I had never heard before, which is surprising because it is a masterpiece that can not be ignored: "Do it Again". It is one of the sexiest songs ever written and Garland sings it with irresistible seduction - it's a sort of refined and romantic alternative to Marvin Gaye's "Let's Get It On."
I played "Stormy Weather" and "Do It Again" over and over for weeks - those two songs alone are worth the price of this CD set. So, if you like jazz and big bands - folks like Frank Sinatra and Tony Bennett - don't hesitate to add this to your collection. It really is a brilliant performance you will enjoy again and again. |

| If you're a JUDY fan (and who isn't?) this is the CD you MUST have. Her voice is at it's best on every song. Fabulous back up band. You will listen to this for years to come. |
