I wish this whole show would be released one day. I have it but my copy isn't that good.

I know I spelt Hillsborough wrong. Anyway, here's Rancho one.

Crosby Brothers minus Gary.

The Rancho home - so vast and expensive and so different to the homes Bing grew up in in Tacoma and Spokane.

I would love to see where Bing grew up. I'll have to search for them.

Bing and Dorothy sing TOO ROMANTIC. I love this song and it is from my favorite road movie, ROAD TO SINGAPORE.

Carmela.
Assuming you found photos on the internet (and there are no obvious copyright limitations), make a copy of the URL of the photo (not the whole page).
You do this by hovering over the photo and right clicking. You should find an option to "copy image URL". This assumes a standard Windows based computer. Other systems have similar options but I'm afraid you'll have to seek them out.
On this board, write your message, then click on the icon for image (third item in the sixth group above. Paste the URL for the photo in the small screen that opens. Done!
Choose the photo with due regard to size. You don't want something that is too large.

I'm unable to stream this video, but I do have the LP the Crosby Brothers did, and I have to say that it is every bit as good as some of the similar pop-folk male groups of the same era. I'd rank them higher than the Lettermen and Vogues most definitely, and not far behind the Brothers Four. To bad they didn't persist, as they certainly had a talent for that kind of material and for singing together.
