Judy's: "I don't mean this harshly ... however ..." ought to be in any reputable book of quotations! (As well as her justifiable assessment: "Marlene has … well … Marlene isn’t one of our better singers, but she LOOKS so marvellous." Priceless!
I love Judy's story about Marlene's album. "I don't mean this harshly. However....." Her comic timing is superb when she says "So she put the record on......and it was...just...applause..." She was a wonderful storyteller.
I agree. I'm from the outskirts of Boston where very few still speak that "American Aristrocratic" type of dictiction and flair...she sounds like a very regal type od proper lady....and her jokes and that little girl laugh disarms you...."I was waaaaving daahhhling.....AND THE CHAUFER TOOK OFF!!!!!"
…..and I’d let her relax and never have to work again!! Sid Luft-that scum! Even in his old age he was scamming and living off Judy: she never made a dime off her series, but Sid Luft used it to finance his later years. POS.
A glorious moment ... a great actress whose comic timing remains undimmed, yet often unappreciated. As to her singing? No one will EVER be capable of approaching the uniquely raw power of the performances Miss Garland gave. Judy's every performance is an enactment of LOVE.
I'm so sad she passed away Miss Judy Garland was one of the best performers and singers in the world we lost a very beautiful icon it's so sad the way the world and the Hollywood industry treated her she deserved more money than she received for all her beautiful hard work she gave this world rest in peace Miss Judy Garland
You would never find such honesty and wit in any of today's "Stars". Judy Garland was amazing and remains so thanks to RUclips. And Jack Paar also, he reminds me of Johnny Carson and again....both irreplaceable. Thank you Buzz Stevens for posting this for everyone to enjoy.
+Max Eliot Except that if other stars had been as cutting about Judy as she seemed to feel free to be about them, I wonder how she and her fans would feel about that.
Max Eliot Many stars and people in the entertainment industry, including the media, often made derogatory remarks about Garland in her lifetime. She took it all on the chin but it must have stung her at times. Most of the jibes were about her weight and, latterly, her dependence on medication. Above all else, however, Garland was often self-deprecating and prone to under-selling herself. A brilliant raconteur, she could tell a story and capture other people's mannerisms but was never cruel. In fact, many of those she spoke of were friends of hers who themselves found her stories amusing. Dietrich was very fond of Garland, which speaks highly of both women.
I agree she was so so funny! I don't think most people remember her so much for her quick wit, but thank the gods for these wonderful clips. Thank you so much for posting this!
Love Judy!, I remember watching this show as a little gal with mom& thought. How Funny she is,was and Still Im laughing & enjoying Judy,as Judy says, she is simply"MARVELLOUS". Love U Judy. Peace
When I met her (only once) in 1967, she told me (in front of a green room full of celebrities) that she thought I was ... MARVELOUS. Well, that was as close to Heaven as I ever expect to get.
I like Judy Garland, she is so interesting to watch although I am not an hysterical fan. Everyone speaks of her great wit. I so see it here more clearly than elsewhere as I am laughing out loud at several of the things said and situations presented. Self mockery, always a crowd pleaser! In speaking of Marlene Dietrich, Judy says she means this lightly, "however". Who doesn't love a "however"! HA! And that Marlene is certainly big enough to take Judy's lampoon. Lots of fun, this interview.
This is absolutely wonderful ! I remember seeing this show when it was first aired in November 1964 . I really , enjoying hearing Judy signing and interacting with Jack Parr. Most of all I remember hearing her telling the story about Marlene Dietrich a playing the recording of only the applause for her performance in the different cities. . This show is spectacular and I am so glad that the recording still exist and that it is available for those who never saw Judy perform or saw the original TONITE show host Jack Parr in action.
I did not see the show when it aired originally. I first encountered this interview when I bought a vinyl LP called "The Wit and Wonder of Judy Garland." It included her appearances with Jack Paar in 1962, 1964 and 1967.
Judy doing "What Now My Love?" live is a thrill to experience, best audio of this classic performance on "Judy & Liza Live At The London Palladium", nobody compares!
Yes, her voice sounds worn, but you can see what was once there. Love her matter-of-fact way of being with Jack Paar, even the way she leans into the song while she's still helping clear the stage. Wish her life could have been different, because she truly was something.
Can you imagine if any of these lip-syncing divas of today had to help clear the stage?? There would have been all kinds of fits, tantrums and lawsuits.
The slowed-down vibrato is the most conspicuous indicator of a "worn" voice, and especially noticeable in this song. It's really quite a boring song (but probably considered "hot" in November of '64) and not a good choice for her talent.
@@jamesmcinnis208 The reason her voice sounded "worn" was that she had recently undergone a stomach pump in Hong Kong (after an overdoes), and had been told by doctors not to sing for at least a year. As for the song choice, I personally love it, and I recall that when I saw her live in 1967, people in the audience were clamoring for it. She didn't sing it at that time, but did resume doing it shortly after at the Palace. Gilbert Becaud, who wrote it, was a popular European singer-songwriter (from Belgium or Denmark, I forget which) ... he was quoted as saying that he had never enjoyed hearing other singers sing his songs ... until he heard Judy Garland sing "What Now My Love."
@@roberthenleynola Becaud was from Toulouse, I believe. Didn't he introduce the song in French, "Et Maintenant"? My comment on the song was not offered as a professional critic's view of it. Quite the contrary, in fact, it's just my unimportant opinion and bias against repetitive songs. (Don't get me started on "The Little Drummer Boy.") It's too bad about the overdose. It is the rare celebrity indeed who has the mental fortitude to handle the Hollywood system and subsequent fame with equanimity, especially when thrust into it as a child. All things considered, she emerged with charm, grace, humor - and that incomparable talent.
Thank you for posting this. As a devoted Judy fan, this is one clip that has escaped me over the years. I've loved her since I was a kid; and we're talking 60+ years.
Damn the woman was funny. I can see why she was labled Hollywoods Wittiest Woman. Yes, she wasnt in good voice here but it didnt matter. She still is captivating & alluring. Only one Judy!!!!!!
I have stated out here many times that Judy Garland was the greatest entertainer of the 20th century - she was! With her friend Jack Parr, (he loved her!) in November 1964, Judy was (sadly to say) a shadow of her her former self. Just six months before Judy Garland had been pronounced dead (of a massive drug overdose) in a Hong Kong hospital - as dead as dead can be! But Judy did not die - even when news reports of her passing reached her daugther Lorna (via a radio report) in Los Angeles thousands of miles away. Upon Garland's admittance to hospital (Hong Kong, late May '64) she was comatose and this began Judy's biggest comeback ever - from Mister Death! Judy's next husband Mark Herron was told (via a hospital nurse) that Judy was dead - Mr. Herron stuffed a handkerchief in his mouth (to muffle the sobs) and somehow realized that Judy was not dead due to some slight facial movement which he recognized. His pleas convinced the nurse that she was wrong - and the critical-care nurse immediately realized it as well. Happily, Judy would live and perform for another five full years - living and loving life to the fullest as she did so well. The Garland voice would never be quite the same after this (via the tubes which were shoved down her throat and up her nose in the brave attempt to save her!) Nonetheless, we were all blessed by her presence on earth for another five years. Garland would never again be hailed as "great." But (damn it!) she would from then on still be quite good. Judy's number came up that day - and she simply took another.
John Jolson, Jack Paar was a back stabbing bastaxx, when it came to Judy. The first time she appeared on his show, she set his all time TV audience numbers by far. She would appear on his show a few more times. Always with large audience numbers. He later wrote a book, and really lied about her, making her look awful. The storys were found to be lies, but, he never recanted them. I hope it's really, really hot were he is now.
Jack Paar was the best. I wish that they would have saved his "Tonight"shows. Dick Cavett came next - he got his start with Paar, so it makes sense. That was really incredible to watch.
Dave La Violette- sorry to disagree here but that guy Paar was atwi faced viper cause he waited until Judy's death to speak bad about her. Here is the link if you want to hear it a gentlemen doesn't do what he did. ruclips.net/video/D31747Wy2YY/видео.html
Judy's story is a brilliant thumbnail sketch of Dietrich. It captures the ego, but also the insecurity, of someone desperate to be accepted by her peers. Judy was, of course, extremely competitive, even at her level, which partly explains the way she liked to prick the pretensions of other stars such as Dietrich and Elizabeth Taylor.
The story is funny but I dont think dietrich was insecure...that wasn't her...judy could sing and was a star...and so was dietrich, they just didn't like each other...dont forget dietrich was the highest paid live act around the world at that time...
Look at the difference between her from 2 years prior. She aged 10 years in just 2! Bless her pure, sweet, beautiful soul!! A sad, hard life for such an incredible. entertainer.
jk m her TV Show was on from 1963-64. I’ve read how traumatic that experience was for her, but this is only a few months later and the difference is night and day. Her series ended in March and this is November. She was absolutely at her peak on her series. Here she is struggling to reach notes and off key. She also looks much more aged and tired here then on her show.
Indeed, one of the best all round performers. She was talented and had a wonderful sense of humour. Love her and always will. Her beautiful eyes always showed sadness.
🙁underneath her funny, bubbly, humorous, self confident, appearance, lies a very sad Judy. My heart breaks knowing she experienced so much abuse as a child from HOLLYWOOD & her mother. All they could see in Judy was $dollar signs$ Everyone loved Judy but not enough to help stop the vicious cycle of drugs & alcoholism she lived through. When I watch these clips & listen to her amazing voice, im flooded with feelings of great happiness & great sadness at the same time. I don’t know why nor can explain it but I feel so my love for Judy., somewhere over the rainbow 🌈 still sharing her voice to the world.💕
Anyone who doubts Judy was a pro should stick around for the moment at 10'30" when she starts singing, kicks the blocks away and holds the mic stand out, waiting for someone to take it from her. In the background you can just here someone complaining 'I haven't seen the master plan!'. Brilliant live tv moment
that, and i think she surprised the orchestra by starting to sing when she did as well for the comedy - i reckonthey were going to just repeat that refrain until she was ready to go but she was like 'well i'm ready now! - are you ready' also - testament to being a pro i think that bum note on the first song really knocked her confidence because a) she made a joke of it and she always joked about things that shook her up and b) she was shaking like a leaf all the way through that second number and you only notice it if you look at her hands.
I agree Tom Lowery. But we forgive her for she has and will continue to deliver, now that we have so much music performed by her on video, some delicious tunes for all to enjoy. That's why I adore her Art form which still continues to amaze me.
Is the opening number missing from this? I seem to recall Never Will I Marry. She refers in the interview to her failed 'last note'. Otherwise, this is Judy at her wittiest.
Pure Genius. Judy sings one of my favourites. The English translation is very different in comparison with the original French. But nobody beats Garland's version. She unfortunately is not in great voice here. The very best version of Garland singing "What now my love" is on the Perry Como show - I think in 1966. I wonder what the piece would be like, sung by two singers, not in harmony, but back and forth, in phrases. Curious in Toronto.
Well, I`m sure Marlene didn`t mind,`Judie was one of her best friends ! They both had a wicked, funny sense of humor ;-) Great Upload ! Thanks for sharing :-)
I agree-not in the best voice, but she kills me with her stories. I wish there was help for her addictions back then, but nobody fully understood addiction. I had the most realistic dream about her last night....
Pure talent purely gifted the great Judy garland lovable , funny a real warm human being people ask me about so called singers in the this day and age and they say did you hear such and suchs new song , and I'll say what , when I mention Judy garland they think for a while and then i mention the wizard of Oz they think oh yes and i point out Dorothy and they say oh she's judy garland ,and say they watched the wizard of Oz as child Christmas time on tv and theyll go onto say they love her Which is good ,as they have known her all along
Mark Whitman I heard this for the first time a while ago, and its still puzzling to me about her voice. Drinking and pills have some part to play, but I think she couldn't clearly hear herself singing. It is interesting to point out too that the TV recording of Judy and Liza in concert that was done at the same place and almost the same time, and sounded so bad its hard to describe! Ill put it this way....first time listening I felt sorry for Judy, then I heard the other version and thought it was a different show...
Mark Whitman I have heard her on other live or taped live and it seems like she cannot hear herself with poor acoustics with poor recording for tv and such. She killed on a good take 'what now my love'. she also knew they loved her no matter so its no sin she was on sedatives unscripted on jack paar but what a storyteller!
Jair Diaz: It’s so hard to take isn’t it? If she was a National Treasure as everyone agreed, why didn’t someone take care of her? I try to focus on being grateful we had her for 47 years, 45 of which she was performing. And I absolutely don’t consider her life as tragic. There was FAR too much success, joy, and happiness mixed in with difficult times, to consider it primarily tragic. Most artists would give years of their lives to have just a moment of her success and her unequalled talent.
Judy Garland felt Music in every tiny fiber of Her Body & Soul!!!
She’s got more class more talent more charisma in her left pinky then all the so called talent we have today
Ace interview
Judy gave everything she had at every performance, she never held back. she was ridiculously funny telling stories, she was a talent.
She had a wonderful comedic personality to add to her list of talents.
Judy Garland was EVERY BIT the incredibly gifted Comedienne as she was a once-in-a-100-year singer!
Her singing gives me goosebumps, so much emotion:-, sensitivity. She is also great with jack parr.
Agree! She was !
Judy Garland is a super nova of human talent. Not before or after shall we see her kind.
Judy's: "I don't mean this harshly ... however ..." ought to be in any reputable book of quotations! (As well as her justifiable assessment: "Marlene has … well … Marlene isn’t one of our better singers, but she LOOKS so marvellous." Priceless!
What a gorgeous woman, with talent, wit and charm to match.

"I don't mean this harshly... however...." LOL
The GOAT. (Greatest Of All Time)
Goat is a ugly word
Judy does not look like a goat.
I love Judy's story about Marlene's album. "I don't mean this harshly. However....." Her comic timing is superb when she says "So she put the record on......and it was...just...applause..." She was a wonderful storyteller.

God how I love this!
I was 4 months old and grew up watching her movies on TV.
R.I.P. Judy. You are missed and forever remembered.
Center Stage No truer words have ever been spoken❤️⭐️❤️
There will never be another Judy Garland❤️❤️❤️
Total Entertainer... Judy Garland! Best in Singing, Acting, Comedy, Hosting... you name it she's done it with glare and glamor!
GLARE??? Flair, maybe?
She is SO FUNNY! And the humor has not aged one bit. Her comments on Marlene are hysterical.
Poor Judy. I wish I could of been her friend. :( Id give her a big hug and tell her how great she is as a human being. Not just as a performer.
That's beautiful
…..and I’d let her relax and never have to work again!!
Sid Luft-that scum! Even in his old age he was scamming and living off Judy: she never made a dime off her series, but Sid Luft used it to finance his later years. POS.
Judy knew she was Great. Entertainers know how to act, pretend and manipulate. Some trick us into "feeling sorry" for them.
Just hearing her speak, is music to my ears!
She's so naturally funny and witty ❤️❤️❤️ RIP LEGEND
A glorious moment ... a great actress whose comic timing remains undimmed, yet often unappreciated. As to her singing? No one will EVER be capable of approaching the uniquely raw power of the performances Miss Garland gave. Judy's every performance is an enactment of LOVE.
Judy was our Edith Piaf- fragile, funny, super talented song sparrow who graced our lives- and still does.
I have watched all the jak parr eps many times HAPPY PLACE
I'm so sad she passed away Miss Judy Garland was one of the best performers and singers in the world we lost a very beautiful icon it's so sad the way the world and the Hollywood industry treated her she deserved more money than she received for all her beautiful hard work she gave this world rest in peace Miss Judy Garland

Damn. Best entertainer ever
She was a good story teller, a funny one at that.
the end when she reaches for that note still gives me shivers from
the time I first saw her do it live.
You saw her live??? You're lucky
she had so much humor funny funnier than any one made makes me laugh wit charm talent to boot
What a shame she never got to do Mama Rose in Gypsy or Dolly Levi in Hello Dolly both around this time. She would've been spectacular.
Yea never thought of that. Liza could have played Natalie Wood’s part.
Wow! Yes
What a dynamite idea! ♥️
Did he come out?
@@henrygrove100 what?
Love Judy!, I remember watching this show as a little gal with mom& thought. How Funny she is,was and Still Im laughing & enjoying Judy,as Judy says, she is simply"MARVELLOUS". Love U Judy. Peace
When I met her (only once) in 1967, she told me (in front of a green room full of celebrities) that she thought I was ... MARVELOUS. Well, that was as close to Heaven as I ever expect to get.
amazing moment when she has to move the furniture herself haha.. and all that marlene shade :))
“What are we gonna say, ‘No, we don’t wanna hear your record’” 🤣❤️❤️❤️I just love her!
still watching Judy x 2021
Thanks for this, we Judy fans are ecstatic !!
Loved Judy to bits, but had to laugh when she knocks Marlene for singing sad songs, then sings a sad song...lol.
Judy was beautiful inside and out. Marvelous actress and singer. They (her mother and the studio) killed her. Money is all they cared about.
Everyone says she is the American Edith Piaf.....she was a true original (we will never see another talent like hers). Truly incredible.
superior to Piaf ... Judy has been dead for over 50 years & her albums & videos still sell with new never released recordings being found ...
She is the Rainbow of song!!! Beautiful lady.💕⚘🎵🌹🦋😁💜🌷🎶❤
not the biggest Garland fan, but I have to admit she is an amazing storyteller. Add a great sense of humor and you have an amazing interview.
Ok now I cry more. This shows Judy when she was going down. So heartbreaking
I love how they NEVER talk over each other. They let you finish what your going to say.

when Judy sang she was pain free and young and happy. alive
That was a tv show. You don’t have those in America these days.

Absolute pro, she started on cue
Jack Parr was the second host of The Tonight Show (1957-1962).
Judy's story is a brilliant thumbnail sketch of Dietrich. It captures the ego, but also the insecurity, of someone desperate to be accepted by her peers. Judy was, of course, extremely competitive, even at her level, which partly explains the way she liked to prick the pretensions of other stars such as Dietrich and Elizabeth Taylor.
And she was wickedly good at it. Her casual aside that Dietrich probably threw in a couple of JG's movies was perfect.
The story is funny but I dont think dietrich was insecure...that wasn't her...judy could sing and was a star...and so was dietrich, they just didn't like each other...dont forget dietrich was the highest paid live act around the world at that time...
Dietrich is nowhere near in the same pantheon of performers as Judy.
She had the best funny stories. ❤
Look at the difference between her from 2 years prior. She aged 10 years in just 2! Bless her pure, sweet, beautiful soul!! A sad, hard life for such an incredible. entertainer.
jk m her TV Show was on from 1963-64. I’ve read how traumatic that experience was for her, but this is only a few months later and the difference is night and day.

Is the opening number missing from this? I seem to recall Never Will I Marry. She refers in the interview to her failed 'last note'. Otherwise, this is Judy at her wittiest.
Pure Genius. Judy sings one of my favourites. The English translation is very different in comparison with the original French. But nobody beats Garland's version. She unfortunately is not in great voice here. The very best version of Garland singing "What now my love" is on the Perry Como show - I think in 1966. I wonder what the piece would be like, sung by two singers, not in harmony, but back and forth, in phrases. Curious in Toronto.

Well, I`m sure Marlene didn`t mind,`Judie was one of her best friends !
They both had a wicked, funny sense of humor ;-)
Great Upload !
Thanks for sharing :-)
I agree-not in the best voice, but she kills me with her stories. I wish there was help for her addictions back then, but nobody fully understood addiction. I had the most realistic dream about her last night....
Pay attention to your dreams!
Buzz! Thanks! 😀
AS BIG A STAR AS THERE EVER WAS?
She is witty n I like her sense of humor
She was about 42 here.
Pure talent purely gifted the great Judy garland lovable , funny a real warm human being people ask me about so called singers in the this day and age and they say did you hear such and suchs new song , and I'll say what , when I mention Judy garland they think for a while and then i mention the wizard of Oz they think oh yes and i point out Dorothy and they say oh she's judy garland ,and say they watched the wizard of Oz as child Christmas time on tv and theyll go onto say they love her Which is good ,as they have known her all along
Twenty-five years after "The Wizard of Oz".
Judy was not in good voice here but she was incredibly funny in the interview. She was dead on about Marlene! LOL!
Mark Whitman I heard this for the first time a while ago, and its still puzzling to me about her voice. Drinking and pills have some part to play, but I think she couldn't clearly hear herself singing. It is interesting to point out too that the TV recording of Judy and Liza in concert that was done at the same place and almost the same time, and sounded so bad its hard to describe! Ill put it this way....first time listening I felt sorry for Judy, then I heard the other version and thought it was a different show...
Yes but wasn't she pretty here and so damned funny?
Prettier than ever.
Mark Whitman I have heard her on other live or taped live and it seems like she cannot hear herself with poor acoustics with poor recording for tv and such. She killed on a good take 'what now my love'. she also knew they loved her no matter so its no sin she was on sedatives unscripted on jack paar but what a storyteller!
Her expression🤗🤗💚💚💕💞
Great sense of humor despite all that she went thru.
Why the hell did this woman die???
Drugs. And alcohol. Smoking and dysfunctional living
Her mother and the studio!!! She made them money.
"Judy" out in theatres.
Jair Diaz: It’s so hard to take isn’t it? If she was a National Treasure as everyone agreed, why didn’t someone take care of her? I try to focus on being grateful we had her for 47 years, 45 of which she was performing. And I absolutely don’t consider her life as tragic. There was FAR too much success, joy, and happiness mixed in with difficult times, to consider it primarily tragic. Most artists would give years of their lives to have just a moment of her success and her unequalled talent.
