[78-L] White Christmas

Bing Crosby actually recorded White Christmas twice for Decca.  Once in 1942
and again in 1947.  In the '42 version he "trills" the word "dreaming," but
sings it straight in '47,  I seem to have read somewhere (perhaps here) that
the reason it was re-recorded in '47 was because the original master was
worn out.  Can anyone confirm this?
