She had a singing voice like no one else and, at least in ‘A Star is Born’ the weight of a geniune tragedienne (which she had in her singing at all times). Check out ‘Meet Me in St Louis’ and ‘The Pirate’ for her future husband’s almost fetishistic photography of her performances.
I’ll have to do that, yes, because what I know about her, and admittedly it isn’t much, has been rather annoying. Cheers.
Judy Garland’s rendition of “The Man That Got Away” has got to be one of the greatest vocal performances ever recorded. I can’t even think of a superlative to do it justice, except perhaps “perfection.”
