These songs, from November-December 1929, are the earliest known solo recordings of Judy Garland. "When The Butterflies Kiss The Buttercups Goodbye" Public Domain Also from "A Holiday In Storyland" is a rare chance to hear The Gumm Sisters in harmony. "The Land Of Let's Pretend" Polygram International ASCAP From the short "Bubbles" featured the trio (The Gumm Sisters) singing as moonmaidens. Judy has a one-line solo in this number. "Zing! Went The Strings Of My Heart" Harms Inc. ASCAP Her second appearance on NBC's "Shell Chateau Hour", November 16, 1935, shortly after her October 26th national radio debut on the same program.

"(Dear Mr. Gable) You Made Me Love You" Broadway Music Corp ASCAP From "Broadway Melody Of 1938", originally sung to Clark Gable at his 37th birthday party and was Judy's first hit record, recorded September 24, 1937. "I'm Feelin' Like A Million" EMI Robbins Catalog Inc ASCAP The song is from "Broadway Melody Of 1938", although Judy doesn't sing the song in the film, she made this rehearsal recording in the late summer or early fall of 1937. "Over The Rainbow" (with Harold Arlen and Yip Harburg) EMI Feist Catalog Inc ASCAP A "dramatic recreation" of composer Harold Arlen first teaching Judy the song - from the June 29th 1939 "live" radio broadcast of NBC's "Maxwell House Coffee Time". "Over The Rainbow" EMI Feist Catalog Inc ASCAP The song's first recording, made for the movie "The Wizard Of Oz" on October 7, 1938. This movie, in time, made her an icon and introduced her signature song, which won the Academy Award. "All The Things You Are" Polygram International ASCAP She sang this song on February 13, 1940, on the "live" broadcast of NBC's "Pepsodent Show Starring Bob Hope". "I'm Nobody's Baby" EMI Feist Catalog Inc ASCAP Judy's "Hardy Boys" character, Betsy Booth, sings this tune in "Andy Hardy Meets Debutante". This Decca records version, recorded April 10, 1940, climbed to #3 on the charts. "For Me And My Gal" EMI Mills Feist Catalog Inc ASCAP In 1942, Judy made "For Me And My Gal", her first above-the-title solo billing and first romantic role. Gene Kelly made his film debut here, at Judy's insistence, after his triumph as Broadway's "Pal Joey". She and Kelly recorded the title song for Decca on July 26, 1942. It reached #3 on the charts in January 1943. "The Trolley Song" EMI Feist Catalog, Inc. ASCAP From "Meet Me In St. Louis", the song became another Oscar-nominated Garland trademark tune. This is the Decca "Cast Album" recording made on April 21, 1944, which also reached #3 on the charts. "Liza" WB Music Corp/The Songwriters Guild ASCAP Radio appearance recorded on November 12, 1946, for ABC's "Philco Radio Time's Bing Crosby Show" as an 8-month-birthday present for her daughter. It is the only time Judy sang the opening verse. "I've Got You Under My Skin" Chappell & Co. Inc ASCAP A return visit to the Crosby show recorded on February 19, 1947, her only recording of this great song. "Over The Rainbow" (with Al Jolson and Oscar Levant) EMI Feist Catalog Inc ASCAP From NBC's "live" September 30, 1948 radio broadcast of "The Kraft Music Hall Starring Al Jolson". Although they had worked on his program 10 years earlier, this is the only known recording of "Judy and Jolie". Here they each sing her theme song in between wisecracks by Oscar Levant.

"The Man That Got Away" New World Music Company/MPL Communications Inc ASCAP The Oscar-nominated "Man That Got Away" was recorded at Warners on September 4, 1953, and best represents the "concert era" voice of the early 1950s. "Swanee" WB Music Corp ASCAP From the song's June 1954 recording session you'll hear - for the first time - an "outtake," as Judy's legendary laughter gets the most of her. "Danny Boy" Hal Leonard Corp ASCAP In 1955, Judy released her first studio LP for Capitol Records, "Miss Show Business". It was a companion release to her first TV special. The album's version of "Danny Boy" was recorded on August 30, 1955. "Come Rain Or Come Shine" Chappell & Co.

"How About Me" Williamson Music Co. ASCAP "Me And My Shadow" Bourne Co/Larry Spier Inc ASCAP In 1957, Judy recorded "Alone", one of the first concept albums and her third Capitol release. These two songs were recorded February 5, 1957. "Zing! Went The Strings Of My Heart" Harms Inc. ASCAP "Judy In Love", her first release in stereo, was an upbeat antidote to the somber songs of "Alone". Nelson Riddle crafted an arrangement of "Zing!" that's vastly different from the 1935 version. It was recorded on May 19, 1958. "Who Cares (As Long As You Care For Me)" New World Music Co. ASCAP Her album "Judy! That's Entertainment" includes this June 9, 1960, recording of "Who Cares?".

Both selections come from this magical night of April 23, 1961, one from each act: a ballad and a "socko" number. "Smile" Bourne Co ASCAP One of Judy's definitive moments, taken from her one appearance for British television, the "live" March 10, 1963, telecast of "Sunday Night At The London Palladium". Disc 3 & 4 contain some favorite moments from her own weekly variety TV series on CBS, "The Judy Garland Show". Judy completed 26 episodes for the 1963-64 season (videotaped on Stage 43 at CBS Television City in Hollywood).
