Frank Sinatra & Bing Crosby Medley (Radio Broadcast) (1945)

This segment follows a similar structure to their previous broadcasts together. Most notably when they guest starred together on the AFRS broadcast respectively titled: "Command Performance." What separates this broadcast from the others is the change in certain songs, and a switch up in some lyrics to poke fun at one another. I present one of the greatest idol and protégé lyrical banters. By none other then two of the most important musical figures to come out of the 20th century's popular modern music scene.

Wish there were a lot more duets. They were magic together

[@TheSinatraCollection]

As do I. Bing, Frank, and Bob together was always a spectacle of a riot I wanted to be apart of.

Awesome medley, thanks for uploading.

That Bing whistle at 3:00 is pure Disney song bird 👌🏼

Crooners & Swooners 😍

Only the greatest bunch.

Do you happen to have the Bing Crosby performance of 'This Heart of Mine" from this show?

[@TheSinatraCollection]

I unfortunately don’t have the entire show as I only have fragments of what I was able to find online since the full show is so rare and only exists through hard to find bootlegs or from the original transcription disc it was recorded on. You could ask this one UA-camr to see if they’re willing to share that recording of Bing for you personally. I will link their channel at the bottom of this comment.
