The Judy Garland Show: Volume 7

40 years ago, Judy Garland began work on her most important project: a weekly musical-variety TV series, which today serves as the finest video record of her as the world's greatest entertainer. Now, two of the best episodes from the series' 1963-64 television season are appearing for the first time on DVD.



In a special one-hour solo Judy Garland In Concert program, Judy sings Music from the Movies, including such beloved classics as Stepping Out With My Baby, Alexander's Ragtime Band, and You're Nearer. Most importantly, she sings some of her own biggest film hits, including the Oscar-winning Best Song On the Atchison, Topeka and the Santa Fe (from The Harvey Girls), The Boy Next Door (from Meet Me In St. Louis), Be A Clown and Love Of My Life (both from The Pirate), I'm Always Chasing Rainbows (from Ziegfeld Girl), and one of her most requested signature songs, The Man That Got Away (from A Star Is Born).



Singer Bobby Darin and comedian Bob Newhart share the other hour on this DVD. Darin delivers a Michael, Row the Boat Ashore that swings, as well as a moving ballad, Canaan. The buttoned-down mind of Bob Newhart gets find display both with his monologue, and in a brilliantly witty sketch which features him with the series star playing a couple at home watching The Judy Garland Show! There are powerhouse solos from Judy in this episode also, including the hit More, Get Me To the Church On Time (from My Fair Lady) and her classic Zing! Went the Strings of My Heart.
