NEW AUDIO FILES POSTED TO THE YAHOO GROUP (for the week of January 29, 2012)



Here is this week's new homepage (by Allen) for the Yahoo version of The Judy Garland Experience.
Here also is a recap of this week's new audio files posted to the group. You may notice that everything posted this week comes from vintage radio, from all the 15 minute radio commercials promoting Judy's movies, to Joan Crawford playing an aging carnival dancer, to Ella Fitzgerald performing a live set exclusively for German radio, to Judy Garland and Shirley Bassey happily sharing a BBC broadcast and debuting their new singles, to, well, why don't you read below and see what all else there is.
Hopefully there will be something for everyone.

Remember, to access these audio files you need to be a member of the Yahoo group. Joining is free and easy, just click on the header of this post.
