The Best Of Judy Garland


ABOUT THE DISC & RECORDINGS:

This is the MCA "Coral Rainbow Series" version, released in England in 1973 (the same time MCA reissued the set in America). The track listing is the same as the American version, as is the cover art. However, the photos on the inside of the gatefold are different (see below).

MCA "Coral" also released an abridged version (#CPS107) with the same cover art and titled "Greatest Performances - Judy Garland". The songs included on the abridged version were: "You Made Me Love You"; "Over The Rainbow"; "FDR Jones"; "In-Between"; "For Me & My Gal"; "Love"; " The Trolley Song"; " Meet Me In St Louis Louis"; " Poor Little Rich Girl'; " Sweet Sixteen"; "When You Wore A Tulip"; " You'll Never Walk Alone".

Of note is that Decca mistakenly used the previously unreleased "B" take of "Dear Mr. Gable" and mistkenly listed it as the "A" take. This error would not be rectified until the 1990's.
