This wonderful compilation is almost a "complete" Judy-at-Capitol set, but not quite. Three complete albums are here: "Judy" (1956), "Alone" (1947), and "Judy In Love" (1958). The rest of Judy's Capitol albums are represented with at least one track. The 1960 album "That's Entertainment" is almost complete with 10 tracks included. All of the tracks from "Miss Show Business" (1955), "Judy", "Alone" and "Judy In Love" have been newly remastered from the original session tapes, and the tracks that follow "Judy In Love" "were mixed from the original multi-track tapes" (from the producer's notes).
The set is beautifully packaged accompanied by a lavish 22 page booklet filled with lovely photos. The excellent liner notes were written in 2006 by The New York Sun reviewer Will Friedwald.
Of special interest are the two alternate takes from "The London Sessions": Take 1 of "Stormy Weather" and Take 1 of "Over The Rainbow". According to the producer's notes, the final release versions of both songs were composites of two takes. To date, this is the only known alternate take of Judy's only stereo studio recording of "Over The Rainbow". Also of interest is the "2007 Remix" of "I Could Go On Singing". Again, per the producer's notes this track was "remixed from the four track 1962 session tapes".
Another "must have" for the Garland collector. And a great set to give to anyone as a "best of Judy at Capitol". The only issue that I have with this release is that, if they went to the trouble to remaster these recordings and produce a full color 22-page booklet, why not just add an extra disc or two and finally release a complete set of ALL of Judy's Capitol recordings? Judy Garland is the only star of her caliber to NOT have a comprehensive and complete set of her Capitol recordings ever compiled. Many fans out there are wondering if a complete set is in the pipeline, but that this 3 CD set is released first to get the most money out of fans who will more than likely purchase this AND a complete set? It's possible but unlikely. Capitol, we're still waiting for that complete set!!!
