For the past few weeks the Bing Crosby YouTube channel has been uploading music videos of Bing’s TV special performances, and certainly there are more of these videos to come, but here are the first three.

Now we have Twilight On The Trail!

Thank you. The only one I had seen before is 'Ol Man River' On YouTube. The show in which Bing sang the song was not telecast in Australia but the other show, filmed in 1956, was telecast here in 1961. TV transmissions commenced here in 1956, just before the Melbourne Olympic Games.

Say, good find! I hope they post more of these. I think the estate can do more with his TV work. I'd love to see them really dig through the master recordings for his TV specials, especially the ones with great arrangers like Nelson Riddle, and add that to their streaming offerings.

They said in the press release for that “Christmas Gems” album that they would dig into the Christmas specials for music videos as well, so even if we have a hiatus of regular music videos, we’ll still likely have Christmas ones coming out.
