ALMOST before she had time to ask the way to the Dominion Theatre, Tottenham Court Road, they had Judy Garland in the EMI recorling studios, St John's Wood.

The result of lluit recording ecesion is now in the shops. It's Lovely to be Back in London (Capitol 78) is not the best recoryl Afies Garland has made, but it cannot help being the most topical. The tune is fine but the lyrics have a hard time rhyming.

I prefer her on After You've Gone (also Capitol 78). While other singers punch this number Miss Garland wallops it.
