RARE~1936~Judy Garland(13 yrs old)~"Stompin' at the Savoy"/"Swing Mister Charlie Brunswick UK 02267 1936 10"
In Britain, Decca bought out the bankrupt UK branch of Brunswick Records in 1932, which added such stars as Bing Crosby and Al Jolson to its roster
Judy’s first single for Decca Records, the 1936 “Stompin’ At The Savoy“. At the time, Garland was the youngest artist ever be signed to a recording contract. That previous fall of 1935 she had just signed her first contract with MGM Studios. This single was recorded in New York just two days past her 14th birthday while she was on an MGM promotional tour – even though she hadn’t made an MGM film yet. Bob Crosby & His Orchestra accompany Judy on this and the flip side “Swing, Mr. Charlie”. Judy was such a newcomer that Crosby declined credit on the record, not wanting to be associated with an unknown little girl singer! Just 7 years later Crosby & His Orchestra would appear (and accompany) the newly minted MGM star Garland in her 1943 film Presenting Lily Mars – with full screen credit of course! * Please feel free to email and questions Check out my other Auctions, I have many 78's I will be listing.
