Crosby Christmas Internet Radio

For Immediate Release: November 24, 2014

Celebrate the release today of four new Bing Crosby CDs from the Bing Crosby Archive and Universal Music Enterprises with the launch of Crosby Christmas Internet Radio at BingCrosby.com, the official web site of Bing Crosby.

Crosby Christmas Internet Radio features classic Crosby holiday radio programs, rare unreleased recordings from Bing’s personal archive, and of course, his beloved holiday recordings. Also featured are tracks from Bing Crosby Rediscovered: The Soundtrack, the companion CD to the documentary that premieres on PBS’ American Masters on December 2nd. (Encore broadcast on December 26th. Check local listings.)

Three other new Crosby CDs are also featured on Crosby Christmas Internet Radio: Bing Sings the Irving Berlin Songbook, Songs I Wish I Had Sung the First Time Around (Deluxe Edition), and Some Fine Old Chestnuts (60th Anniversary Deluxe Edition.)

  

Also heard on Crosby Christmas Internet Radio are several privately recorded – and never previously broadcast -­‐ Christmas programs made by Crosby for the Shriner’s Children’s Hospital. Rare Crosby interviews – including one with Lucille Ball, the annual Christmas Sing With Bing programs – featuring guests like Rosemary Clooney, Johnny Mercer and Maurice Chevalier, and little known gems like Bing’s Christmas 1949 guest appearance on The Monica Whelan Show, a local Los Angeles radio program, make Crosby Christmas Internet Radio the perfect soundtrack for the holiday season.
