Saint Judy: is there a good Garland CD?

Archive: Listening

As I type this I'm listening to a Judy Garland CD. I don't own anything by her. Unless I decide to keep this one (it is a budget disc without notes or performance dates).

When I watch an old movie with Garland I often feel very uncomfortable: her eyes seem to suggest she's might neurotic. Even when she sings happy songs. And mostly I don't like her singing. She's too hearty, belts out too much, I think the contemporary term is that she oversouls

Back when I used to buy lots of CDs and local Durham musician, John Howie, worked at a since vanished independent record store I'd buy anything John recommended. Thanks to him I discovered many old honky-tonk and rockabilly singers like Warren Smith.

Like me John had never cared much for Judy Garland but once when I was in he said someone had sold him a Garland CD that he really enjoyed. He never remembered to tell me the title.

There's a chance that some supremely knowledgeable and Garland fan will wander this way and suggest a CD. I'm not a fan of torch songs or strongly dramatic singing. I don't require improvisation but need for a traditional pop singer to swing (or be a supreme genius like Al Bowlly).

So which Garland CD would you say meets my criteria?

Please keep your comment on topic.

I'm a happily gay atheist. Homophobic, racist comments and conversion attempts are deleted.

Disagreement is fine but hate speech won't be tolerated. Even if you share my prejudices I'd rather you not insult other people who leave comments here.

This is a personal hobby and shouldn't be confused with a more general sort of public forum or chatroom. you'd like to know more about me check about page.

Thanks, Richard
