- Judy performs another one of her signature tunes for the first time in public. Broadcast on ''The Shell Chateau Hour'' with Wallace Beery on 16 November, 1935. On the night of the show's broadcast, Judy discovered that her father (Frank Gumm) was seriously ill in hospital with spinal meningitis, but had no choice but to go on and perform - her performance has an added intensity. Her father died the next morning and Judy never saw him alive again. However, a radio was placed next to his bed so he could hear the broadcast, and hear 'Baby' sing one last time.
The studio forced her to do this while her father lay in a hospital bed dying, with the radio next to him. She wanted to be with him so badly, but didn’t have a choice. It’s utterly heartbreaking
My gosh... shes 12 here??? God, I would've thought she was older. There'll only be one Judy.
Judy's father, Frank, was a singer and it's been said he was a very, very good one, too. This talent was genetically passed on to his daughter.
She was so talented no one will ever take her place no matter how hard someone tries to be like her there's only Judy garland we love Judy garland <3
If this was on Shell Chateau radio, she had probably been crying before this performance since her father was in hospital sick from spinal meningitis and she was told her daddy was going to listen to her on the radio... so she tried to put all her heart and emotions into her rendition... omg it's sooo sad... her dad died the next day :'-(
Beautiful voice from a 13 year old! Such a powerful voice and she is what you would call TALENT. It is such a shame what happened to her father, but at least he got to hear Judy sing for the last time. I agree with the poster below, I do not think Judy ever really got over her father's death.
What a voice Baby Gumm! You had it all... It's a shame how Hollywood can run so much talent into the ground!
So much more than a singer. She was somehow the song, itself. And if all the details above about her and her father are true, I think that's about one of the saddest things I've ever read. As if she lost the one person who had her back. As if she herself--from this moment on--were really essentially alone.
Judy’s father was listening to her sing on this show on the radio in his hospital room, the day before he died. Judy had a very difficult relationship with her mother, to put it mildly. But her father was always in her corner. His death absolutely crushed her.
And an encore as well.. Perfect pitch, gorgeous tone, phrasing, diction, resonance, legato, rhythm...etc etc.... Astounding ,genius like vocal talent. What a great belter. And what a lovely singer. To think that only 4 years later Europe was plunged into death, darkeness and horrors... all the whilst Rooney and garland were "methed/secenol'd" out of their minds force worked hours a day dancin' and singing their little pubescent hearts out making millions for MGM. All that... with no back end deals and only on weekly salaries. Even crazier is that Garland made much less weekly than Roonety and her talent was frankly the more shinier and rarer.
So much pain in her voice..
She had perfected that vibrato by age 10.
She never sang like a child.
A stunningly untrained beautiful voice of an unbelievably young 12 year old.
Judy Garland is Amazing This Recording is Amazing! This Song is Amazing!
Her voice is unbelievable.....!
The Little Girl with the Great Big Voice, Judy Garland at 12!
She'd been in the business, doing several shows a day, for at least 6 years by this time. A rare talent under any circumstances, but those vaudeville work conditions honed these talents to perfection. I think that's why these stars lasted so long once they made it.
💕 there are no words that describe the amount of talent this little 12 year old Judy Garland was blessed with 💕 so much hurt & abuse this little girl was put through 💕
Of course she possessed a natural beauty. She had a widow's peak, a cupid's bow and strong cheek bones.
