Bing Crosby - Where the Blue of the Night (1933)



Uploaded by: WhenSwingWasKing
Video Description:
The final 4:30 of this Sennett short, titled after Bing's famous radio theme. Franklin Pangborn is the hapless suitor spurned by Babe Kane in this "mistaken identity" saga. Crosby would keep the in-joke about Jack Smith (one of his replacements with Paul Whiteman and a lightweight rival in the 1930s singstakes) alive on his radio shows well into the '50s!

Sorry to be petty, but he died in Spain, not Italy and his last words were "That was a great game of golf".
Great video by the way. I love the Mack Sennatt shorts- I have them all on video- it's just a shame that I can't watch them from university, since I only have my laptop. So thanks!

Bing Crosby is the perfect entertainer, hes a great singin crooner, his whistling is superb, hes a great actor, and emulates that easygoing and simple style! Hes's the greatest of them all.

Yes he was. And he was also Frank Sinatra's idol! The old groaner not only raised the bar when it came to recording artistry, he was the bar. What a blessing to have written a song that Bing sang. L Russell Brown
Many "moons" ago, ... ( 9 months ago by RonSea38)
Many "moons" ago, when the clock stuck 12 noon and as the program began on a local (Boston) radio station with Bing's theme song ("Where The Blue...."), the announcer would say: ".......so now, sit back, relax and listen to Bing sing." He was so much a part of our entertainment world that when he died, I felt like I had just lost a dear relative. Thankfully, we have his music for our and future generation's listening pleasure.

someone expressed ... ( 6 months ago by patthecatman)
someone expressed surprise that bing was such a good whistler, that was just one of his fortes. at the time bing went on national hook-up in '31, CBS advised him not to whistle during the numbers, as morton downey had been their resident whistler. another point, bing seems to have been the impetus for russ. bing had already been, since '27, warbling with whiteman, after which he went single in '31, with gus arnheim. one of arnheim's violinists, russ columbo, struck out on his own only then.

God, finally. . . . someone who brought up Whistling. The lost art of whistling. No one whistles anymore. Another great whistler was Roger Whittaker.

i've heard bing recordings dating as far back as '27. russ was a violinist, and a good one, until he struck out on his own in '31. bing appeared with gus arnheim's orch. in early '31 as their featured singer; russ was still violinist with arnheim and he and bing struck out on their own about the same time. i don't think russ consciously patterned his style after bing's; however, bing's style was already well established by then.
