This LP
was recorded live on February
24, 1952 at Judy's final performance in her legendary box office
record-breaking 1951-52 New York Palace engagement. The album
also includes the often-documented "Goodbye
To Judy" from the audience, which began with Lauritz Melchior
leading the audience in singing Auld Lang Syne to an audibly
touched Judy.
This recording is also available on CD as part of the 1999
2-disc "Judy Duets" released by Judy's late ex-husband
Sid Luft and, in typical Luft fashion, the songs are in a
different order than what was actually presented, although
the sound quality is much better than the original LP of the
event.
