CARNEGIE HALL CELEBRATES JUDY GARLAND

Ten years ago this month there was a two night event at Carnegie Hall that celebrated the life and art of Judy Garland. We at TJGE are very proud to be presenting the world premiere of the recording from both nights over at our Yahoo group. This week we are featuring the first night that featured Lorna Luft, Jerry Herman, Bebe Neuwirth, Wesla Whitfield, Robert Morse, Nancy Dussault, Vicki Carr, and others.

Next week we will be posting the second night of the event, which features a whole new roster of talent.

Both nights were very special, you won't want to miss these ultra rare files.
