That's Entertainment! is a studio album by Judy Garland. It was released on October 31, 1960, by Capitol Records, and arranged by Jack Marshall[1] and Conrad Salinger.

Garland turned to her former MGM arranger Conrad Salinger for four full orchestra-backed songs, including the title track, “I’ve Confessed to the Breeze” from No, No, Nanette and ”Alone Together” which was selected for The Band Wagon but not ultimately used in the film.[2]

Cash Box described it as "a wonderfully entertaining session", praising Judy Garland as "a great talent whose disk work is always at a premium" and noting her "vigorously swinging" performances.[3] Billboard noted that Garland was in "good, well-controlled form", highlighted the "well thought-out backings", and concluded that "Garland fans should like this latest edition".[4]

In a retrospective review William Ruhlmann of AllMusic wrote "Five years into her tenure at Capitol Records, Judy Garland had slipped from the top rung of the label's concerns...Nevertheless, the results were engaging. Garland was in good voice and sang with assurance, resulting in another terrific collection.[1]
