Notes
Catalogue Number "DL 78419 on rear sleeve and labels, "DL 7-8419" on front sleeveFrom the CBS Radio Program. Originally sponsored by the Insurance Company of North America Companies.
The story of the first "CHRISTMAS SING WITH BING" is truly a fantastic one. When Bing Crosby raised his voice to lead CBS Radio's 1955 Christmas Show, he had no idea that he was initiating an annual event anticipated eagerly by millions. Almost everybody in the world was able to hear that Christmas Eve broadcast, first presented on December 24th, at 9:00 P.M. Eastern Standard Time, with Bing, the Paul Weston Orchestra, the Norman Luboff Choir group, and many of the famed choirs of the United States and foreign countries....
