Jasmine Records is proud to announce the release of JUDY GARLAND: I CAN'T GIVE YOU ANYTHING BUT LOVE in 2018. Judy Garland (1922-1969) sang about love throughout her life, but up to now no career-spanning CD collection has ever brought her greatest love songs together. Here then for the first time on JUDY GARLAND: I CAN'T GIVE YOU ANTHING BUT LOVE is Garland's take on the meanders of love.
Based on studio, radio and live recordings made between 1939 and 1961, the anthology, featuring songs composed by many of the great songwriters of the Great American Songbook, captures Garland's voice in youth, as a young lady, and as the mature artist. Both exuberant and melancholic at the same time, Garland's voice could take you from the ecstatic highs of love first encountered to the mournful lows of separation, and, above all, all the in-betweens of longing that were her specialty. At 78 minutes 35 seconds, the single-CD 24-track set, which will include a live "Why Was I Born?" (Oscar Hammerstein II, Jerome Kern) that was recorded in 1946 and is new to CD, has been produced, compiled and annotated by the award-winning Garland historian Lawrence Schulman, who has been responsible for numerous CD sets devoted to Garland over the past 24 years, and has also written about her extensively for the ARSC Journal and other publications.Videos
