[78-L] White Christmas

[DAVID BURNHAM]

I assume most posters are aware of the 2CD set put out a couple of years ago 
which contains every Bing Crosby Christmas single. There are several recordings 
of Silent Night and Adeste Fideles, including an excellent remastering of the 
first coupling of these two from the '30s, (the first release of these since 
they were first on the market).  It has, I think, 4 recordings of White 
Christmas and the 1942 recording is in very poor shape - I'm sure anyone could 
get a better copy of it just by copying a 78 in good shape.  This set also 
includes the alternate take from the 1942 session and the only glaring problem 
is in the last line:  "and may all  ----- (word not audible)  Christmases be 
white".
