It's important to have a purpose in life. Copying Dino stuff from VHS onto DVD provides just enough purpose for the time being. We copied the Friar's dinner from 1959. Then "Some Came Running". Then "Bells are Ringing". And, now, we are copying a 1062 TV special with Judy Garland, Dino and Frank onto the last 60 minutes or so left on the DVD. She opened with Just In Time, which Dino happened to sing in Bells. Important to get rid of tapes, they are cluttering up things. Maybe another week.

Does Judy appear on your video of Dean's Friars Roast? I know she sang at it but never knew if a video existed.
And speaking of Judy Garland, there is an exciting new group on Yahoo called The Judy Garland Experience. The group features amazingly rare audio treasures, great photo’s, lively discussions, and just about the greatest membership a group can have. This week we are featuring rare files of Judy performing in Long Beach with The Rat Pack, as well as an ultra rare interview with Judy, unreleased tracks of Sinatra at Carnegie Hall, and some other odds and ends (including both of Judy’s songs from Valley Of The Dolls).
The group consists of fans of all levels, Garland family members, historians, authors of books on Judy, other entertainers, filmakers, and more. The only thing missing is you!
So, please check out our little Judyville, once you visit us you might never want to leave.

dan, it's not a video. it's a three LP audio recording of the 1959 testimonial dinner. towards the end of the dinner, judy sings rock-a-bye and brings the house down. goose bump moment. you can feel the enormous respect and admiration for garland by all these very talented people.
