Judy Garland 1966 Hollywood Palace (Rehearsal)

[@pennypinglestein2028]

even a bad note is an amazing note, when it's Garland. one of a kind.

[@SaxonC]

She always under played and sang in rehearsal and walked through the routine and saved her tremendous voice and performance for the audience.

[@Spinach863]

She was high. Stop making excuses

[@laurapickman9415]

I would've paid money just to watch her rehearse. Amazing talent!

[@tashspeak3877]

Judy's half-arsed 'I can't believe you dragged me out of bed for this shit' rehearsal is a million times better and more interesting than most singers whole-arsed performances these days. They broke the mould when they made her, they really did.

[@lindseysanders3656]

Isn’t that the truth!

[@littlesongbird1]

Even Betty Davis commented that she was a triple force and talent like that only goes around once a generation.

[@stephenhetzel8437]

Yes, she could belch and it would be amazing

[@stephaniestanley8041]

Tash this is most amazing and hysterical YT comment ever!!!

[@paulamiles9559]

B-I-N-G-O!

[@shiftinglands4129]

There is a little rehearsal Judy in all of us.

[@mickyfinn4466]

Exactly. That is why we love her. Even at the peak of her abilities, we still see something of ourselves in her. She was unique in that respect.

[@Meltdown555]

Amen

[@joshlaning9085]

Yes we all do have rehearsal Judy in its you should see the way I look right now.

[@susanbultman9676]

That is one of the funniest things I’ve ever read. And so true!

[@Ebrady224]

Yessss she’s like nope not today she hated rehearsal

[@marisa9968]

Definitely one of the best vocalist ever!! Judy is one of a kind, there will never be another Judy Garland!

[@MrCrowebobby]

I was in show business for 35 years and this still caught me off guard. I love it!

[@grai]

even when she wasn't trying she was still really compelling! amazing person!

[@HeresWhatJonathanSaid]

Awesome talent, and she's just rehearsing. She's like "I can't read these frickin' words but oh WTF I'll get it right when we're live can I go back to my dressing room and screw it here's a high note before I do AHHHHHHHHHHHHH..." Love you Judy forEVER!

[@melodic21]

Jonathan Broder lmbo!! My thoughts exactly 😂😂😂

[@stevie68a]

I lived on 80th St. in NYC during 1969 and saw Judy at the funeral home. She was tiny. I remember the peachy shade of lipstick she wore. She had on a blue grey dress that was more grey than blue. A friend said there was glass on her coffin, but I remember there was no glass.

[@BamBamLW]

I think she looks so precious in this footage because she doesn't have all the heavy eye makeup on. Those big beautiful Garland eyes are more noticeable and she looks so cute in her black outfit and shoes. I wish we had more footage of her just being herself offstage. She will always be the greatest to me!

[@fredlim-uy8559]

She's so talented indeed. How could her voice sound so strong and perfect even during a rough rehearsal!

[@dfwjac]

Even just marking it, she's still better than some of the newbies going all out.

[@bruw5640]

It’s just a rehearsal for someone who had been doing it for 40 years at this point. Judy even made doing a run through of the song and staging magical.

[@Spramped1]

This is wonderful to watch. I feel that Judy, without the heavy makeup and dramatic eyes, looks very much like she did during her early years at MGM. Even her casual outfit seems to be more flattering than the full red gown she wore during the actual show!

[@tapeduk]

I adore this raw footage of Miss Judy

[@SaxonC]

Judy was better here then today's top singers today in top form. She knew enough to hold back during rehearsals and then when show time came, she belted it out of the park...

[@jl3322]

Love the kick back at the very end💋

[@pattibrooks1907]

Loved love Judy ! She was very talented and awesome funny too !

[@earthart2010]

I love her just the way she is.

[@FranklyScarlettFaced]

Has somehow become my favorite film of Judy. Watch it every few days 💘💘

[@Royalone08]

Her voice is incredible

[@merdy111]

i don't know why, but i can't get enough of her singing this song! :)

[@charlotteh71]

She looks tired and fed up. And she hated that song, but despite that she still sings it well. Love judy

[@JeffMende]

I loved when Judy lost a line.....so human....her hair was natural....oh what a rehearsal...rip Judy Garland.....

[@trentaccid2177]

We need more of these rehearsals from The Hollywood Palace. I never saw this thankyou They need to release all 190 master episodes on blu ray of The Hollywood palace.

[@shugstobin7331]

This absolutely breaks my heart. She was a major talent & no one took care of her or showed her how to care for herself. God bless Judy Garland. Rest in peace Dorothy. 😞🙏❤️

[@phillipseifert694]

I’m a fan now ... having watched that little practice run Her spirit here outshines the production value of the final project

[@dekleinekunst]

What a Pro! I love Judy. She was really fantastic. Thank you for posting.

[@WilliamFogle]

This is the most precious thing on KZbin.

[@rustynailmendlesohn8710]

you need to get out more sweetheart LOL

[@allanfisch]

taped 51 years ago today! A sentimental favorite.

[@philtherealdeal100]

ps...she hated rehearsals

[@SaxonC]

Judy would always hold back in her rehearsals so she could save her voice to give the audiences came to hear and that is Her larger than life persona along with her amazing singing voice.

[@cindymartinez128]

Judy was so very real, her hair looks like miss does after running my hands through it throughout the day. Then out comes this amazing powerhouse voice. What an amazing God given talent. ❤

[@NCLUSA]

How many times have we seen this?, a young person with real talent comes along and makes it big just to have bad habits and age take it all away. The first time I watched The Wizard Of Oz(as a young boy) I thought she was beautiful, I'll always think of her in that way. Sad thing about life is we can't keep a person from destroying themselves. Of all the celebs I would have liked to have met her, she was a very real talent for sure.

[@sallyr.6891]

You have it wrong. She was forced to take drugs and dependent by the time she was 10 years old.

[@Rouben19]

For some reason this is exactly the way she performed it on the show, new material in the later years threw her a little but it is still JUDY GARLAND

[@gforceeatingcorrect]

Brilliant… even in her situation the Lady has Soul….still an absolute pro…Bravo!!!! They didn't have help back then Like now [Linsey Lulu ]…A true Class Act ! R.I.P. !!!!!!!!

[@sarakat76]

I love this woman!

[@dianaanson4506]

That poor dear, she's struggling. The drugs consumed such a bright light. That was hard to see Miss Judy......but I love ya!

[@Sarahbuildsstepsequencers]

Goodnight, Judy... 💐

[@kjones7561]

Such a big voice coming from a small lady. The G.O.A.T 🩷

[@2Brian]

Exactly. Judy didn't need to rehearse her singing. This is a tech rehearsal for lights, cameras, staging, etc. She's really just going-thru-the-motions here. However, when the audience was watching, she gave it every ounce in her tiny little body.

[@Blackbird890]

She is a class act even doing a rehearsal.

[@elenawinellcomposer]

1:33 Just that screenshot...my favorite thing ever

[@spikereward1]

SO love this! the way Judy way in concerts!

[@tapeduk]

I love this clip-Miss Judy sings better in this rehearsal footage than in the taped show

[@yokoblue3208]

ステージの感触を確かめているジュディに、親近感を感じます。

[@videox222ify]

how can someone not love her

[@laurenl5843]

She was 44 here. The last 3 years of her life. 😔

[@Ben63451]

More than half a century later. What an amazing woman...and she knew it. X

[@darrenfreyauthor]

What Judy needed then... Was rehab sweet rehab

[@MLaker221]

brilliant, thank you for saying this!!!!! you are the voice of judy on this one. (I keep coming back to this video, I LOVE seeing her raw like this!)

[@irishnurse100]

At the end she was like "I just wanna go back to bed"

[@natsohigh5552]

I have never once put any effort into a rehearsal 😂 I'm with her on this one.

[@DepalmaJay]

love it, she looks younger without all the heavy makeup and the hair is much more flattering this way.

[@spikereward1]

LOVE THIS!

[@tjj5337]

This is so cool.

[@rybrinbewester]

She always looked professional, even with casual attire, and a casual setting. She is very much missed.

[@richardmcleod5967]

"We'll sing em' all and stay all night".

[@Ebrady224]

“We’ll get to Chicago after we’ve been to Birmingham and Leeds and Manchester”…. Different concert but still Judy

[@stanleycostello9610]

"I don't ever want to go home."

[@spagandtuna]

Judy at 10% blows away all comers who are at full speed.

[@Vancat2]

Love this. Love the comments. Well some of them.

[@Tsumami__]

Lol even just casually rehearsing she still killed it

[@christinamonroe3680]

This is incredible

[@AshtonGarland]

It might be just me, but she looks like she was doing house work and just stumbled across a stage and started singing just for the hell of it

[@henryjackson2357]

😂😂😂😂

[@karisiu2258]

i just love her even more! 😂

[@tyleroreilly8195]

Funny enough that coulda been a movie plot of hers back in the day. But she was always done up lookin like judy. I find this video very fascinating. This was the real woman behind that voice.

[@patmandolla1806]

I love her anyway

[@richardmcleod5967]

Part of Judy Garland's attraction was a total lack of pretentiousness................that is what you see.

[@pattibrooks1907]

Loved Judy s singing acting and she was so funny

[@PAULA1SAAVEDRA]

So sad 😞

[@JanMike9]

Judy HATED this song...I can't say I blame her.

[@carolnelson8459]

Her show should never have been canceled!

[@MissGreenDay7]

She was saving herself for her audience.

[@allanfisch]

someone below asks, was she drunk..absolutely NOT. She just woke up. Showtime is another matter. I love this clip, i find it endears her to me even more. I can't watch the show(except for the finale, taped days later). She clearly is "off center" to say the least, not at all like here, focused, present, herself, even getting a giggle out of the ponderous lyric...

[@mickyfinn4466]

I read that she was so worried about being on time for the rehearsal that she spent the previous night in her trailer on the studio lot. If true, she probably had just rolled out of bed. Elsewhere on youtube, someone has cut this footage together with the number as broadcast. Check it out. The contrast is astounding.

[@eamonflaherty5325]

Allan Fisch I don't she looked drunk at all she does look like she just woke up or tired from rehearsing all day , even so I think in this video she did really good nd sang clearly nd even if ur the best performed or rehearsed person weather it's for a concert or a play the rehearsal will be different from the actual peformance , that's how it goes in the industry

[@myjessie9678]

Allan Fisch she was on uppers

[@mopenstein]

She was an alcoholic and drug addict.

[@johnsain]

@@mopenstein Her autopsy indicated hers was not the body of an alcoholic....and liver showed no signs of it.

[@spikereward1]

Hi guys! You know what? JUDY was H U M A N ! Simply put; she was talented, creative and way a hard performer! She just was working here, despite drugs etc... We may not have all been "there" but there is such a thing as a functioning/ productive addict; she just happened to be one of them! This was before known rehab blah blah blah. She was just plain "sick". That's why it's called a disease. Love this woman!

[@zellerzlovesyouuu]

I’m so glad they cast Judy Davis in the biopic about Judy because I really see the resemblance here

[@tapper701]

A casualty of Hollywood & herself ... Actual support of her offstage & on, likely would have offered her hope to save herself ... Smokes definitely heard in voice ... Lessons to be learned ...

[@maggiestevenson5010]

Even though there was very little effort and it was a rehearsal, her voice is fantastic. The industry she grew up in completely destroyed her, along with the vile people that bled her dry of her money. Poor Judy always looked so vulnerable but still came across as such a lovely lady. She was taken far too soon and the world was then deprived of her wonderful talent ❤️

[@myfurryfam365]

I love her so much 💕 rehearsals are just a run through and she sounds great on ten percent effort.

[@ArmyJames]

She was only 44 here, but she looked 64. Alcohol is a hell of a drug.

[@loulou2lou]

Judy didn't need makeup.She was splendid in a tramps costume and a clown get up.With Judy,the communion she had with her audience proved to be the winning combination.

[@Eddy1963]

Sans makeup and her hair not all teased and sprayed , I see the young Judy here. I'm thinking back to the "I'm An Indian Too" number she shot for "Annie Get Your Gun."

[@satoridestiger]

1. She is "marking" - even today this common when doing run-throughs or a rehearsal that is for any element OTHER than the singer. NOT the "Cue to Cue" nightmare but very specifically; how long is the show putting this together end to end? Big clue is the gentleman immediately standing - "applause applause' etc - - - this may be for "timing" from set to set, changes, sequence length, and the orchestra track layer. I have been in rehearsals like this that will go all day while they run technical elements again and again - - they need the singer as she fills a required gap......but she doesn't need to trash her voice singing all day; she will not. INTERESTING NOTE: - - While marking she still brings the pianissimo and then FULL VOICE after the bridge into ending. She immediately pulls back but she must do this to to maintain the 'muscle memory' when she is actually performing. I did an opera with a soprano who spent 2 weeks of rehearsal sick and the 2 weeks recovering her voice. Week five we started doing some full sequence run-through of 20 minutes at a time, she couldn't sing. She had marked at one volume SOFT for 4 weeks. She struggled to overcome that and perform FULL VOICE, to mixed reviews. So Judy is TOP NOTCH PROFESSIONAL and although 'marking' she still is maintaining the muscle memory that will allow her to PERFORM without concentrating on singing; effortless habit. She has to move as well as she may have dance steps or blocking - - blocking is also 'marked' but again; she is building muscle memory for full performance. 2. SPECTACULAR POINT HERE: - - no 'autotune' - she is singing ON PITCH in a 'MARKED' runthrough! 3. POINTS OF FAILURE: One portion that bothered me was the final held note. She did not have the gas for that. She didn't mark she just stopped singing. She could muscle through everything else just fine - but that was out of scope. HOWEVER: gracefully pulled back rather than sing an ugly pitch. The other portion that bothered me were the sung consonants, in particular "N" with vowels in general closing in a diphthong to the final consonant. Yes; that's the style often used in "cabaret-style" of that era. Again though here - rather than 'marking' the breath support seemed to stop and the vibrato spun out of control. 'Closing a phrase' is very different from 'uncontrolled full stop'. Her life was a long series of abusive management and abusive life style that slowly diminished her until she was gone. ****But that woman could sing. You have friends that could sing like she did in this "marking" recording. Just remember: she has a volume, musicality and (to keep the gas metaphor) another 5 gears WAY beyond this sound. An incredible recording of her work process.****

[@TransVangal]

It's refreshing to hear her sing a more modern song

[@rah62]

Nah - her talent was wasted on that crap.

[@OldieMusicMan]

Fascinating footage. Thanks for sharing it. She and Edit Piaf were compared a lot -- Piaf being called the French Judy Garland and vice-versa. And you know what? Here she even LOOKS like Piaf. I think it's the hair. Both women were horribly talented and tragic.

[@MANUELFARINELLI]

Always a lady and a fucking great lady!!!

[@eduardoramos4386]

I can’t believe you woke me from my semi induced coma for just rehearsals 🙄

[@kellie4bcr]

oh wow.

[@MIS315]

We love you Dorothy!!

[@charleswtriplett]

Well, her figure sure looks great. I'm sure this is a VERY COMMON, NORMAL rehearsal and very typical of most big performers

[@robertwebb3546]

My God. That moment where she just decides to belt the note instead of walking through the rehearsal. Wow.

[@Canadiana71]

Her heart wasn't into any of it near the end.

[@bonngunk1]

Judy singing Bacharach....two of the best,

[@jamesdrogers]

Sid Vicious's rendition of My Way comes to mind

[@itwontcomeout5678]

David Rogers perfect reference haha

[@millers3888]

1:31 could you imagine being a stagehand or cameraman crosschecking the live performance and hearing JUDY GARLAND just belt it out during rehearsals??

[@joeyjosephs]

but, when the show started, she was Garland , she was on..

[@robb7398]

She's just running through it, for the timing, the cameras, the band - saving her voice and energy - It's a run through. The crap people say here...my gosh. No brains. Have any of you been performers? If you have, you know what a run through is. If not stfu.

[@windstorm1000]

this is fascinating---

[@itstheburnz]

Once through was PLENTY!!

[@billmuddy5800]

She looked so younger here

[@terrywolf5901]

I WAS THERE AND SHE WAS DRUNK AS A SKUNK.

[@stevejarrettnc]

I don’t ballerina a word you say.

[@mariagalante821]

I Love Judy Garland...

[@Funnypandalonies]

she wasn't trying. rehearsal is just another word for practice. there are unofficial rehearsals and there are official rehearsals. unofficial is at home in your garage or living room. official is on the stage. you may go through 20 rehearsals or non, it depends on what changes and when. some don't know until the hour before what has changed.

[@laraeejohnson7880]

you still hear the magic in her voice but she stumbled out of there what was that

[@jacquelinepaul9731]

I absolutely love this...but gee.you wouldn't have been too confident about it turning out alright on the night...what a pro.
