Bing and Johnny on MP3



Here's a very narrow category: Performances by Bing Crosby and Johnny Mercer together, issued on MP3. (Bing singing Mercer songs is another, much larger category.)

1949-01-12 - With Johnny Mercer by Bing Crosby. From the Album The Bing Crosby Show Vol. 12
As MP3s go, this is a great deal. 29 minutes, and costs 89 cents. It's an episode of Philco Radio Time with Bing Crosby, Johnny Mercer, Peggy Lee, John Scott Trotter, Jud Conlin and Ken Carpenter. "Produced and transcribed in Hollywood."
