DVD Reviews of The Judy Garland Show, Vol. 2

DVD Review: "JUDY, BARBRA, ETHEL, RAY & JANE"
Summary: 5 Stars


As other reviewers have noted, portions of "The Judy Garland Show" episode featuring Barbra Streisand and The Smothers Brothers (October, 1963) have been edited. I know this because Barbra included audio segments of her with Judy on her four disc CD anthology "Just For The Record." On Disc 1 of "Just For The Record", Judy introduces Barbra in a "Be My Guest" segment. Judy asks Barbra what she would like to do. Barbra replies, "Can I replace you?" This is nowhere to be found on the DVD. The editing is rather abrupt and disconcerting. Still, if you do not own the previous Pioneer release, should you deny yourself the intense, electrifying pairing of Judy Garland and Barbra Streisand? I think not.
Dick and Tommy Smothers perform a funny song/comedy segment, which predates their later, more controversial "Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour." Then, Judy introduces Barbra; who sings a languid, sultry rendition of Rodgers and Hart's "Bewitched, Bothered, And Bewildered"; immediately followed by her highly individualistic version of "Down With Love." The Judy/Barbra duets of "Get Happy-Happy Days" and the "Hooray For Love" medley have deservedly become historic. Ethel Merman pops up from the audience and (what else?) begins to belt out "There's No Business Like Show Business." Perhaps overwhelmed by all the "Diva Power" on stage, Barbra rather quietly and casually mentions that she is about to begin rehearsals for her role as comedienne Fanny Brice in the Broadway musical "Funny Girl." Judy closes the hour with her famous concert medley of "You Made Me Love You," "For Me And My Gal" and "The Trolley Song."
The second episode was taped one week later (also in October, 1963); but saved for broadcast until March, 1964, to coincide with the annual TV broadcast of "The Wizard Of Oz." Judy's guests here are fellow MGM alum Jane Powell and Ray Bolger, who, of course, portrayed The Scarecrow opposite Judy as Dorothy in "The Wizard Of Oz."
Judy solos on "That's All," and a rather odd comedy routine is built around "One For My Baby, And One For The Road." Jane sings a beautiful version of "Dear Friend" from the musical "She Loves Me." Judy and Ray dance and laugh along to "The Sunny Side Of The Street." Singing "If I Only Had A Brain" and "We're Off To See The Wizard," Judy and Ray share a warm, affectionate chat about "The Wizard Of Oz." Judy mentions that "Over The Rainbow" was initially cut from the film in previews because studio executives didn't want to waste time with this "little fat girl" (herself!) singing." Producers Arthur Freed, Mervyn Leroy, and composers Harold Arlen and E.Y. Harburg insisted "Rainbow" be put back into the film. The rest is. of course, history. "The Jitterbug", a number that did not survive the final cut, is performed here by Judy, Ray, Jane, and several dancers. Judy closes this hour with "When Your Lover Has Gone" and "Some People" from the classic musical "Gypsy."
Despite the abrupt and confusing editing done by Infinity Entertainment, Volume Two features two of the very best episodes of "The Judy Garland Show."
