Thanks David. It is an interesting interview. Phil's interviewer said 'Mostly everybody know the name Bing Crosby'. A couple of decades ago when I was researching for my book on Bing I asked a young friend if he knew of Bing Crosby and his response was 'Yes, Bill Cosby'. (That's when we Aussies were watching Cosby on TV.)  Nowadays, when the occasion arises I ask a young adult if they've heard of Bing Crosby and their answer is positive  but they can't say why.

A few years back I wrote to Phil when I was getting thyroid surgery. He sent me an autographed photo. And when I told him I am a big Odd Couple Fan and asked him how Jack was doing after his throat surgery.  He told his step father Jack Klugman that I am a big fan of his and I was about to have throat surgery and Jack autographed a photo with encouraging words on it and Phil sent it to me! Thanks, Phil and Jack! Two Great Guys! Graham, back in the 90s, I was in the city(NYC). I went in a record shop asking where are the Bing Crosby Cds. The sales person said, "You mean Bill Cosby!" I said, "No! Bing Crosby!" He insisted I was wrong. I told him in my Brooklyn accent " Forgettaboutit!".😂😂

Wow! Ron, I can't believe it! People must of lived in a closet all their life!

David, my incident happen back in the 90s and the guy was a little younger than me at the time. So say I was 30. He might have been 25. So now he would be 53. And he worked in a record store!
