Judy Garland
This 3-CD set presents rare and previously unreleased performances by Judy Garland from both her earliest days (First Flights) and her final months (Swan Songs). The Swan Songs include Garland's final U.S. concert from July 20, 1968; performances from her London Talk of the Town engagement of December 30, 1968 through February 1, 1969, and her final concert of March 25, 1969 from Copenhagen. Private home recordings and other rare live performances can also be found here, all in newly and excitingly restored sound. The First Flights turn the clock back to the star's childhood with songs recorded between 1929 and 1940. Lawrence Schulman, Scott Brogan, John Meyer and restoration engineer John Haley all provide liner notes for this slipcased deluxe package which sheds revelatory new light on the iconic artist.
