It has so many classic Broadway tunes! I have a recording of it, and just was hoping to foster some discussion on it as I don't know much about it myself. Anyone care to share?

"The Mickey and Judy Show is a star-spangled salute to the movie music of Mickey Rooney and Judy Garland, the "Gable & Garbo of Hollywood High," and top box office stars of Hollywood's Golden Era. The show takes a tuneful & nostalgic look at their classic MGM films, including "Girl Crazy," "Babes in Arms," "Strike Up the Band," and "Babes on Broadway," and salutes their reunion years later on CBS television.

Mickey & Judy's silver screen songbook includes classics by the Gershwins, Rodgers & Hart, and Harold Arlen & Yip Harburgh, featuring unforgettable songs such as "Embraceable You," "Our Love Affair," "Where or When," "I Wish I Were in Love Again," and "I Got Rhythm," among many others. Whether you've seen a Mickey & Judy film or not, their treasure chest of American standards makes for an evening of good old-fashioned entertainment everyone will enjoy. Audiences have responded with standing ovations for this musical tribute to two legendary performers and the songs they sang from their talented teens to their full-throttled prime.

The Mickey & Judy Show: Two mikes, two stools, and a trunk-load of great songs!"

I have the recording with Jeff Harnar and I can't remember her name, but it's just a fun tribute to two great gems of Hollywood's Golden Era. The CD is back at my home, as I'm in grad school living in a cramped apt., I can't tell you what's on there. I'll do some research, though.
