A good extended interview. The whole runs to well over 30 minutes with a few musical inserts, many of which are shortened.
A nice warm picture of her father from Mary and some interesting anecdotes about 'Dallas', the stage shows with the family, (with emphasis laid on Bing's generosity in sharing the platform with his family). Well worth a listen. In fact I'd say a 'must'.
I wonder how a small BBC regional station managed to secure such an item.
Over the next few days we all need to look out for tributes of one sort or another.

The interview with Mary Crosby dates from 2008 but nevertheless it's well worth hearing. Harry King originally interviewed me in 2008 and I gave him contact details for Mary. He followed up by coming to our Leeds meeting in 2008 and broadcast a 2 hour show from there.
