Judy Garland - The Judy Garland Show in color

[@stanleycostello9610]

No matter how many biographies, reminiscences, books, TV shows and movies there are about Judy, we will never quite know what made her so beloved a performer. And still is today...

[@markwhitman72]

Listen to the last clip of Old Man River, dear lord the contolled vibrato and power of her voice is stunning as well as the emotion! Who can sing this better?

[@davefuller3311]

+Mark Whitman DITTO!

[@paulpitt52]

Double Ditto!!

[@robertrothberg8678]

I do love judy garlands version of old man river.but no version can ever be compared to the greatest entertainers rendition by sammy davis jr.watch his version of the song on hollywood palace.its the most compelling version ever. From robert,the s.f.giant fan.

[@ralphewell8398]

No one.

[@abriellehorvath3195]

She was just a miracle. An amazing, once-in-a-lifetime, brilliant talent. If only her father had lived to see her perform.😪

[@marijooneill8015]

Absolutely the best ever, no one can sing these songs like Judy.

[@joshuaalexander6296]

We didn’t deserve this lady. ❤️

[@Ebrady224]

But thank god we had her

[@marijooneill8015]

There is no one that can ever compare to Judy, she had it all.

[@jm5180]

God, how beautiful is she in the end clip singing Old Man River! This is such a great clip!

[@ScottHughes-n4u]

Where did she store all the air in her little frame to sing like that. Judy was a miracle and she gave us so much love.

[@mona2242]

Nobody but nobody can match Judy’s rendition of this song , nor ANY other song she belts out. She truly had a God- given talent, pure GOLD!

[@519forestmonk9]

I think whenever Judy sang a song it became the definitive version.

[@ScottHughes-n4u]

At her famous Carnegie Hall concert Leonard Bernstein was present crying like a baby. I can certainly understand why. Judy was the queen of popular standards and quite simply the best. Judy was like a supernova of love and emotion and she made you feel it. Greatest entertainer ever. Thank you so much for all the love and joy you gave to all of us.

[@D1300H6A]

My goodness: can this woman sing !!!! No one comes close. Outstanding vocal intonation

[@2Hearts3]

Old Man River-- no one can compare to her singing of this or anything else. Her performances were over the rainbow 🏆👏🌈

[@ronronizetti2534]

Her voice and heart were bigger than her entire body - no one ever gave so much of himself, Bless you Judy

[@CharlieChilders-wm9gb]

And received so little in return as far as financial security and respect and appreciation for all her hard work. 😟😢🙁👍🤗♥️💞

[@ralphewell8398]

She really was beautiful

[@sot730]

What a great talent and a fantastic voice. To the five that gave this a thumbs down, in time you will learn.

[@djmarie2058]

Wow, her entire persona grips your attention, as if she is thinking those lyrics for the first time! ❤ What a talent, those that possess such gifts... their lights shine so bright... Thankful we have Stacy who shared her experience, we can see how frail Judy is.

[@marisanmarisan357]

What can you say to perfection?

[@glenconmc]

I hope and pray the colourize all the episodes and release them on Blu-Ray!

[@RImusclebear]

Judy makes every song a theatrical play, with a first act (Questioning), 2nd act (Conflict) and a third act (Resolution.) Listen to" Ol Man River" if you don't believe me!

[@jl3322]

Love these in color-it adds more reality to the greatest female singer of the 20th century!

[@nicermguy1]

Amazing. Just look at her face during "Old Man River" - it looks like she is living the pain.

[@davefuller3311]

+nicermguy1 Yes

[@mariagalante821]

I love Judy Garland… The Best

[@ninafrosty]

Her singing on come rain or shine is just WOW!! no words can be spoken. Talent is an understatement.

[@jimrick6632]

GREAT JUDY BUT THE COLOR SUCKS....

[@marijooneill8015]

Her VOICE IS MAGNIFICENT.

[@laraeejohnson7880]

if this is what is was like in Carneige hall wow old man rive and rain or shine 2019 and still listening, I wish more people would write about the kind things she did sometimes She did write a lot. . / Jackie Chicago

[@shanedeleon5376]

I especially love the simple, subtle and poignant coloring in the Old Man River sequence. It even looks like it could even be original color.

[@kevinryan4857]

She was SOOOO BRILLIANT ❗

[@BHW722]

I like it. It looks like they got the colors right on the "poppy dress".

[@deanersch1]

Beautiful, Especially the subtlety of color on Old Man River!

[@achillestsakiridis558]

Incomparable . Absolutely and always

[@rnhealer6044]

Oh my goodness,! Where could you have found this incredible clip of our beloved Judy looking and sounding so wonderful? Thank you, Thank you from my heart.

[@kennethmason9790]

RN Healer Judy is a belter

[@luiswisorivera4359]

This is FANTASTIC! Even the sound is totally out of this world!!!

[@Nina9354]

Oh my, how beautiful and talented this woman was ... Love it and her so much! ^^

[@catwalkaj]

Just. Wow.

[@laraeejohnson7880]

love the hand gesture and then the colorization did her son and anotherguy put this together, its really great. How doe any artist futon that level of intensity. Ok i realize i am obsessed and need to get back to my reality but a great artist for the ages.

[@alecker23]

A tormented woman with an unique talent and a great sense of tragedy.

[@massimogiordano2778]

I love you forever ...my beautiful lady *******!!!!!

[@keithnieto2882]

I'm all for seeing Judy in color...both she and the series deserve it...especially the amazing gowns created for this magical series...but the color enhancement needs a bit of work to be believable...I know we can do it, hell its almost 2015! While we are on the subject how do we get "Judy" created in a live hologram concert?...I like many never saw her live...its time!

[@mariagalante821]

Beautiful!!!

[@joestella2083]

Just the best there ever was

[@frankdefrancesco2113]

Great greatest

[@valentinamaggie1253]

Magnifica!!! I love you Judy!!

[@dubset7202]

Fantastic

[@neverending.trip...]

1:12 how do they know that the dress have a green color? not blue, for example...

[@charliestreeter5799]

I don’t know for this particular example but a lot of the dresses Judy wore are available to see now, they could use that for reference when coloring.

[@xxxyorks]

Such a great talent

[@alskndlaskndal]

The last clip is fantastic, I would believe it was filmed in color. The source material for the other two seemed to be not quite as clear, but I loved seeing her colorful dress.

[@TheJudyRoomVideos]

It was filmed in black and white. :)

[@joshuaalexander6296]

Rain or shine mannnn omg

[@perrygrant2403]

This is like a dream come true ! just fabulous ....if only the whole series could be done as it makes it look like it was recorded yesterday and its amazing but it just doesn't "age" . Well done ..love to know more about whether more is going to be done .

[@mariagalante821]

Judy deve estar iluminando o CÉU com sua voz maravilhosa!!!

[@xxxyorks]

Astonishingly great ❤

[@ScottHughes-n4u]

I could not agree with you more.

[@terryhammond1253]

OMG! OMG! OMG!

[@juliag.5114]

I like it too, thank your for posting!

[@mari69diaz]

OMG! No words'

[@WitoldBanasik]

Thank you . Amazibg quality. Love Judy.

[@S955US84]

In the early 1960s, only the NBC network was broadcasting in color. It was really not until 1965 that ABC and CBS began color telecasts with any regularity.

[@Mauriziociclista]

Una donna eccezionale.

[@barn2001]

that poppy dress is amazing.. wonder what designer

[@glenconmc]

Lighthouse17 I think it was Ray Aghayan? It is my favourite dress Judy wore in the series.

[@l.a.smittie7412]

glenconmc I believe you're correct!

[@RealPete]

Yes Ray Aghayan and his then assistant, Bob Mackie

[@michelinelalonde2217]

~UNPARALLELED~

[@davidhazard512]

There is a new process for color, they are using it for early Dr. Who episodes... that were kinescopes, the result is amazing

[@bigjonisback]

This is what all singers wish they sounded like.

[@moysesp.6372]

Amazing . I miss the days of colorized movies.

[@jeffreyskywalker5782]

3-6-22 I play & listen to jades subliminal s time travel subliminal once every day, it's like I traveled back in time & sat in the audience on the Judy Garland show.

[@MultiLMarcelo]

Just beautiful !

[@glenconmc]

I would buy the DVD's again if they were all colorized. Hopefully they will be and come out on Blu Ray? We can but hope.

[@l.a.smittie7412]

glenconmc Right! I mean the show was broadcasted in color, so why no colored release!? It brings more life to Judy, hard to believe that is even possible, she's full of life! I read somewhere that Joey had colorized some stuff!

[@TheJudyRoomVideos]

The show was ever broadcast in color. It was filmed and broadcast in black & white. :)

[@DenniLeyva]

I love it

I saw a documentary....I think it was on the history of television on PBS. They showed a clip from the Judy Garland Show, the number where Judy, Ethel Merman & Barbra Streisand were singing "There's No Business Like Show Business". I believe it was in color ????

[@joshdrayton1230]

Nope. It was filmed in black and white.

[@l.a.smittie7412]

I own every PBS Garland documentary and don't recall ever seeing that!

[@joshdrayton1230]

Sid Luft, Judy's former husband and manager, has supposedly had the entire Judy Garland series colorised, using a new and improved colorisation method. A few brief clips have appeared on KZbin. However, Luft died shortly after the project was completed and the colored series has never been released or shown anywhere. I suspect he never had finance or distribution in place. With any luck the rights will have passed to either Joey or Lorna Luft and they might be able to get it released.

[@TheJudyRoomVideos]

Luft never had the entire series colorized. He wanted to, but was never able to finance it.

[@TheJudyRoomVideos]

The PBS documentary is called "By Myself" - you can find copies of it on eBay. It's quite wonderful!

[@showtunestarpower]

I've totally been converted to appreciation colorization - especially when we know the original colors of costumes and sets. Some people love the austere quality of the CBS black and white shows of this era but when you see Garland in color, the show takes on a welcome warmth. I think the federal government should fun the colorization of the entire series!

[@craigr_mintz967]

fantastic! Wow what a difference when it change the color perfect perfect. When you change the color that was the absolutely perfect I'm sorry I love that do you plan on releasing the Judy Garland show set in color think about it

[@sergeiparajanov]

Was the show, colorized by Sid Luft shortly before he died ever released on DVD or Blu-Ray? One of the few things that SHOULD be colorized .... How can we buy these colorized episodes?

[@TheJudyRoomVideos]

Sid had some colorization tests made of at least one number, but not any full episodes. Since then, nothing has been done by way of colorizing the series. I assume it's because it's too expensive and the disc market isn't what it used to be, so the return on the investment might not be viable.

[@fabrizio483]

OMG. Dying!!!!!!

[@morenoisms]

Who else cried???

[@ScottHughes-n4u]

Me

[@yortsemloh1156]

Singing was effortless for her, life was not sadly.

[@MMM-rt8xo]

Can you colorize the sonber she does with ethel merman on this show

[@TheJudyRoomVideos]

I'm sorry, I don't do the colorization.

[@Truthall]

she was like so many performers...off stage she was just a shell, almost empty of life...then as soon as she steps on stage..its like someone just possesses her....its like a totally different energy that took her over... look at todays so called singers (and i use that term loosely) they havent got a fraction of the talent and are very poor singers but even just to lip sync they are possessed by an energy thaey dont have off stage...so just think what garland had with the talent she projected... she was one of a truly dying breed for sure... music died completely in the 90s... one of the reasons so many people prefer older music as it was sung with real talent and real musicianship

[@elspethcoogan1499]

I don’t think Garland was “just a shell” or “empty of life” off stage. What an odd assertion. Those close to her, family, friends and colleagues often describe her as being highly entertaining and humorous. Her anecdotes about show business behind the scenes are legendary. Garland as a tragedienne figure is well worn and tired. Yes, she experienced hard times but she was not unique in this compared with her contemporaries in Hollywood.

[@rotsirk]

Do you also want to colorize the opening of The Wizard of Oz? same argument.

[@glenconmc]

rotsirk Not the same thing at all? It was a conscious decision to film Oz like that to fabulous effect. I imagine the reason for not filming Judy's show in colour was a financial one as CBS had dropped it's own colour tv production, and colour tv was still in it's infancy. Unfortunately CBS was bad for Judy in the end as they kept trying different styles and directors and formats. Not the most reassuring method for a fragile star such as Judy who was told she would never have to work again if she didn't want to as she would be financially secure. At least she had great people and artistes working with her.

[@Davidalp1]

Dreadful LOL!!!!!

[@PatrickGallagher2269]

+Davidalp1 The 'Old Man River' colorising job was the best. But it takes a lot of effort and time to do this.
