JUDY AND KUP '65
Following her appearance at Chicago's Arie Crown Theater, Judy appeared on Irv Kupcinet's syndicated talk show, Kup's Show, May 8, 1965.

PENTIMENTO
What if Judy Garland had released a studio album in 1963/1964, what would it have sounded like? What songs might it have included? Utilizing the TJGS pre-recordings that Orval shared with Steve Sanders, and he subsequently shared with us, we have compiled an album that we feel could have worked as a mid sixties studio LP offering from Judy. We call it PENTIMENTO the frances gumm album.

REQUESTS AND RARITIES
Anything and everything.

SUNDAY MORNING SPECIAL
Selections from Barbra's Streisand's 1963 performance at San Francisco's The Hungry i.

Debut posting of Judy's June 18, 1967 performance at Westbury Music Fair.

JUDY IN SEATTLE 1955
Radio broadcast where Judy plugs her upcoming shows in British Columbia. She gives the interviewer the brush off with a phony story only to get totally called out on her fib. Fun fluff from people who are in good spirits.

SUNDAY MORNING SPECIAL
Barbra Streisand. Oh so early, oh so rare.

THE GLUM GUMM PT 1.
Ultra rare 1956 demo recording of Virginia Thompson, formerly Jimmie of The Gumm Sisters. This original, penned by Mrs. Thompson, evokes dusty and depressing images of torn taffeta and wringing hands. More next week! The song is also available on our blog in a listen only format. http://thejudygarlandexperience.blogspot.com/2012/10/a-gumm-sister-crying-in-night.html

WHERE JUDY PLAYED
Barbra Streisand taking requests during a 1973 performance at the Jennings Lang estate (to raise money for the Elsberg fund). Maybe Judy didn't exactly perform at Jennings Lang's home (I checked with his widow yesterday just to make sure), but when it came to singing at Hollywood parties and in producers homes, Judy had been there and done that and had the tee shirt in six sizes. Also heard on this recording are Marvin Hamlisch and Joni Mitchell.

A GUMM SISTER CRYING IN THE NIGHT

Here is a rare 1956 demo recording of Judy Garland's sister, Virginia Thompson (Jimmie Gumm), singing one of her original songs.

This recording has been brought to us courtesy of The Charles Triplett Collection.
