Thank you both for your replies, just working through what's here at the moment, some later 12" LPs and also older 78's -though singles as it were, the Brunswick one is the only 10" LP. i'm highly unlikely to collect them as i've no turntables any longer, sad but true!  the history interest me and then i'll probably see if anyone is interested in them as they are better with a true fans  than myself where they will probably lie in a box collecting dust whilst i buy CD copies of them!

Hi, I'll be honest here that i have sort of grown up with Bing being around in sound and on film and , as with osmosis sort of absorbed him. However, i was more "Pink Floyd early days" tha n Bing  - who 'belonged' to my mother's generation as i thought then. It's only in later middle age i have listened again and, along with many others i'm sure,  realised that there was music before the 60's including the blues and jaz vocalists and orchestras !

I have been looking through some old records from childhood and passed down and though there are a number of Bing 12"records from 50's and 60's mostly i think there is one i have tried to find out more about but can't find listed anywhere at all.

I registered hoping someone here with the enthusiasm, interest and knowledge of his career might point me in a direction i could find out more.  It's called Blue of the night , catalogue number LA 8595, matrix MG 1318 - 1B/MG1319-1B on Brunswick Records, 10" LP - 33 and a third rpm , eight tracks . I have some scans.

Be grateful for any assistance in my quest.

Thanks

chris
