Are all The Kraft Music Hall Shows available? I have some but would love to have them all on cd. Carmela

Carmela,

There are quite a few individual songs scattered around among CD (and LP) issues and a number of LPs contained complete versions of the later (half hour) shows, but not a great deal has survived of the early shows, let alone available.. The Official Home Of Bing Crosby Website has some shows (KMH and others) that you can listen to on line - try here http://bingcrosby.com/bing/bing-crosby-media/audio-vault

If you go the the ''Bing'' magazine site http://www.bingmagazine.co.uk/bingmagazine/kmh.htm there is a complete listing of all the shows and at the foot of each listing a note of some LPs or CDs that have been available at some point.

I list the KMH shows in a different for on my discogrphy site - here http://www.jazzdiscography.com/Artists/Crosby/crosby2bkraft.html

again showing LP and CD issues. These are mainly but not exclusively of individual songs. 

I would mention specially a CD that the ICC issued in 2010 details here - http://crosbyfanworld.boardhost.com/viewtopic.php?id=157

There are a number of complete shows on certain sites on the internet. ''Old Time Radio'' and ''Kraft'' and ''Bing Crosby'' are suitable search terms. A number of collectors have surving shows in some form. Previous postings on this site are relevant http://crosbyfanworld.boardhost.com/viewtopic.php?id=425

Amazon list quite a number as MP3 downloads. I don't know their sources but the samples I tried are very variable.  

It is not until 1941 (7) that appreciable numbers of complete or nearly complete shows have survived, whilst for 1942 I know of 9, while for 1943,  1944 and 1945 there are over 20 of each.
