NEW AUDIO FILES POSTED TO THE YAHOO GROUP (for the week of October 23, 2011)


If you are wondering why Ella Fitzgerald is with Judy on this week's homepage, so are we!!!

Ella was only supposed to be our SMS but apparently that wasn't enough for Ella because she kind of squeezed Judy out of a duet with Bing, and then she wedged herself into the Encore spot, and after that, well, all hell broke loose and she ended up everywhere!!!

But what do you expect from a woman who once referred to herself as Judy's number one fan?

Here's the rundown for the new files. To access them you have to be a member of the Yahoo group, which is free and easy to join (just click on the header of this post).

A JUDY MOMENT
Judy's Lover Come Back To Me make a happy return to this folder. Judy starts this one out by crooning but then takes a little stumble, but being Judy Garland she recovers by pulling a few musical and dramatic tricks out of her bag and then completely turns things around by giving a singing lesson!

BING AND ROSIE #402
Another episode of Bing Croaby and Rosemary Clooney's daily morning radio show for CBS. This episode was originally broadcast on September 12, 1961.

COULDA SHOULDA WOULDA
Judy Garland had a lot of hit singles in the 40's, but in the 50's Capitol presented her as an "Album Artist" and didn't push singles or get her in the studio to record pop or novelty material. But what if they had given her songs like this one (sung here by Ella Fitzgerald)? Imagine Judy singing it with that great big over the top voice she had in the early to mid 50's. Do you think she would have had hit singles? And/or do you think her integrity as an artist would have suffered for it?

CRANKED UP
I'll Plant My Own Tree sung by Judy Garland, 1967. Taken directly from the 20th Century Fox stereo master and presented here at a higher bit rate than the normal group standard.

DUET OF THE WEEK
Ella Fitzgerald and Bing Crosby take A Dreamer's Holiday.

ENCORE
Ella needs one for the road (If driving do not attempt this yourself).
