    Omg yes John, that “all for you” performance is hands down my favorite Judy performance as heartbreaking as it is, she delivered and is utterly brilliant and beautiful.
    Thank you so much John for keeping her legacy alive ❤❤

    Thank you so much dear Harvey for this amazingly informative interview which was so incredibly helpful and indeed interesting to hear for me, as I thought I had known so many facts about dear Judy, yet learned so much more here. A beautiful soul she was, yet sad, as she gave so much of herself, and she had never truly found for herself a person not to take advantage of her. I miss her to this day. Your questions were once again spot on, and John was exceptional with being a fountain of information. All in all, an immense amount of great memories and a joy to listen to. You my friend, are the cats pajamas! I absolutely love your incredible interviews, and you! This woman will never be forgotten, ever. She was and will always be, a legend, into countless millenniums. God’s blessings to you always. Once again, I thank you, most sincerely. Love and Kisses xoxo 🥰🤗😘💕❤️⭐️❤️✌🏼😎🥰🥰💙❤️🥰❤️

      Wow, I did not know people still used the "cat's pajamas" as a slang anymore. No offense, I am not trying to age anyone. I am in my 50's. But I know the slang is from the 20's.

    I read the Coyne Steven Sanders book and enjoyed it a lot. I wanted to read the most accurate story about Judy, because I think that's very easy to find some kind of tabloidish books about her, just as the great majority of videos there are in CZcams where you hear about her "tragic, drug addictive, life she led", and almost nothing regarding her humongous talent, her wit, her intellligence, her fabulous sense of humor, her profound feelings... Now I'm looking for John Fricke's books. It's great to learn more of Judy from those who, of course, know all about her demons, however balance this hard information with the power and wonderment she was..
    Thank you for this video 😊.. 💜🌿

    I do not know much about Judy Garland - never really followed her career that much. Found it interesting your comment about her marrying many husbands who were gay......loved the look you gave when your guest said that at most they were bi-sexual.....right LOL. Anyway, maybe that explains her daughter, Liza, marrying David Gest....like mother, like daughter perhaps.

    Wow, how worn out was Judy in 1959, that doctors instructed her to quit the biz? In addition, I never knew her last spouse Mickey Deans was bi. Did Mark ever remarry? I don't think Mickey did, he died a couple of years ago. I think Mark has passed too. Did Sid remarry as well? That is tragic Sid stole and wasted her money like that.
