Each week I listen to an archived BBC radio program which Howard Leader presents on Sunday afternoons. It's a three-hour program with the first two hours concentrating on big band swing and balladeers. His 12 November session included at about the 30-minute mark some of Bing's contributions to KMH in 1935 and 1936. His programs can be heard on howard.leader@bbc.co.uk and they are archived for several weeks at least.

Graham, Thank you for spotting this. This is a more direct link to the specific program. The CD referred to was prepared by JSP records in conjunction with the ICC, particularly member John Newton and is still available here.
Other tracks on the show were taken from "Rare Original Survivors" issued by ICC to celebrate the 75th anniversary.
