She was in terrible voice and looked like shit. Lollipop head, anyone?

[goatdennis]

Actually, she wasnt in bad voice.She just hadnt learned the words yet and was just running through the song for staging. This was just a runthrough with no makeup on!It was never meant to be seen. On the broadcast version,she looked beautiful,sounded great and didnt miss a word.

Is there any more footage of this? I love Miss Judy

[goatdennis]

Just the actual show.

This is GREAT!!!(even if the quality is less than perfect) I've never seen this footage. Is this the only rehearsal film from this show? Please share more!

[goatdennis]

unfortunately,this was all that was filmed that i am aware of.glad that you liked it.dennis

I love the mad psychadelic quality of this clip. Judy is just pacing the songs to get a feel for what's what and wheres where for the show. and you can feel her NOT delivering, not giving that precious energy that she gave when she was 'on'. facinating and extraodinary. like her.

wonderful that you brought us this, thank you so much

@damone77 i think her and mark were over by this time, it was 1966, i think the producers wanted her to do this song, and they were going to re shot it at another time when they felt her voice would be stronger, but for reasons it never happened

Never mind, the quality, of the video; Judy was NEVER a singer. Just a showman. The same applies to Liza (UGH!!!!).

[etrax2000]

she looks so tiny here but with the orange costume she looks fuller, maybe she felt more power in costumes

This is sometimes called a brush rehearsal, a step up from blocking, and down from dress. Lighting plan is tested, performer makes his marks (where he's meant to be on stage so that lighting and sound work effectively), and accompaniment (pianist, band, orchestra, tape, etc.) is run for balance as well as how it can be heard by the soloist, and vice versa. Often, as in this case w/ Miss Judy, the performer opts to "save their voice" for the show, so they merely go through their paces.

Loved watching this!

[NikDanger99]

I always hated that song. Sounds like she did too..

[damone77]

Much better video of this exists firstly. Secondly JUDY didn't like the song, plain and simple. I think that it was Mark Herron's idea that she sing the song. I think that this footage is very special in that it is JUDY rehearsing and than when you see the air tape, she is truly marvelous with the Bacharach composition!!!

[bittertea]

What a big difference hair and make up makes. :O

She is still so talented even at that age.
