Music reviews of Greatest Hits Live
Music Review: A heart is not judged by how much you love; but by how much you are loved by others.
Rating: 5 Stars
Out of all of my Judy Garland records this is one of my favorites. Because I'm sure this is what it must have felt like to be at one of Miss Garland's concerts. (Although I can only imagine the type of excitement and hysteria of being in the presence of this musical goddess could never be duplicated simply by listening to a CD, but this is the next best thing.)
All of the songs were recorded and performed live from Miss Garland's television series. Besides "Over the Rainbow" (which is probably everyone's favorite song) I also especially adore: Be a Clown, Get Happy, Smile and What'll I Do. Miss Garland's voice is so beautiful on each and every track. It's almost like she knew that 45 years later this CD would be out so she tried extra special to make it sound perfect. And she does sound perfect.
The CD comes with a lovely little booklet which includes pictures (I especially love the one on the back cover of the booklet) as well as a very detailed description of the songs and the performances. The liner notes also states which show each of the songs were sung on and when the show aired and when it was taped, as well.
You know how some times older songs sound older and almost faint? I really hate that. But that is not the case on "Greatest Hits Live." I don't know what the producers specifically did but it doesn't have a poor analog sound in the slightest. I am not very techie when it comes to this stuff so if I don't use the correct wording you'll understand. But what I really want to articulate is that the volume of the scores is perfect. You will not need to turn it up super-loud (like on some older CDs that have screwed up volume) because this is all evenly dubbed.
To any new Judy Garland fans who're looking for a CD I recommend picking up this one. I know there's a huge selection that may look a little intimidating at first, but this is a great place to start because it includes so many hits (24 full tracks in all) and the CD is nearly full (over 70 mins.)
I really appreciate the showman in Miss Garland because it's apparent that she doesn't just stand on a stage and sing some songs. No way! She performs. She sings and dances and speaks to her audience. She brings the house down and she will stop at nothing to be certain that everyone listening to her is just as amused as she is. It is a very rare performer that can do that. And today in this society of disposable celebrities it is a complete and total anomaly.
