Hi - Are you involved with the blogspot site? I tried to log on but was re-directed to a Google sign-in page, and then to another page that said I didn't have permission. I've enjoyed that site for many years (it was nice not having to sign in), and have appreciated all of your hard work. Thank you!

Thanks for the quick reply. I'm sorry I wasn't as quick to respond. Monday Night Football with my son sort of has its priorities. I really do like this site. It has everything and much more. Finally a site that my wife and I can go to and re-live some of our youth when we were first dating (not that we are that old). We used to listen to some of these programs while driving around in summer evening; Mystery Theater, Suspense and much more. Thank you one and all.
Love the 2 Beatles documentaries you put up. Thank you for them both. Do you still have The Beatles The days In Their lives? Media -Fire no longer has it. I asked Rik if he had it, But he lost it on a HD crash. I would really love to here it.
Re: The Ernie-Not-Bert Bing Crosby post --
Sorry to say that MediaFire quickly pulled the upload due to copyright issues that don't seem to exist. They did it very quickly. It may be due to the fact that someone is selling downloads of it on Amazon, but it is public domain material.
However, there are many other Christmas things on the blog you may be interested in, so take some time to look.
A music blogger, "Ernie (Not Bert)," has posted an old LP issue of a couple of Bing Crosby Christmas shows done for the US Army Recruiters. He has lots of other Christmas stuff, too (as he does every year). This is the link:

Thanks. We only do them after a recording session when we have time and the session isn't a long one - which they usually are. It was never intended to be weekly; so we'll do some more of them, I'm sure. :) glad you like them
