f.Chesterfield 36   My Foolish Heart

Bing Crosby (voc), John Scott Trotter and his Orchestra (orc)

This show is "artificial" as it is a compilation of items from earlier shows with the exception of "Music, Music, Music" and "If I knew You Were Coming I'd Have Baked A Cake". Lionel Pairpoint has shown that the latter was lifted from the CBS programme, ‘Welcome Back Baseball’ broadcast on 15th April 1950 which was probably recorded on 12 April 1950.

"Music, Music, Music" might have been cut from an earlier rehearsal or an recorded for another programmes but not used then.

For "A Dream Is A Wish Your Heart Makes" with Perry Como and "Candy And Cake" with Arthur Godfrey see Programme 29, "Music, Music, Music" also appears in that show, but appears to be different and might have been cut from a rehearsal.

JOYCE6050 - “Big Bands Greatest Vocalists- Bing Crosby”. contains an edited version of the prgrammeretaining much of the dialogue remains but excising commercial jingles. The sleeve implies the show is no 69 of 28 November 1951 but some of that show is also included.

I understand Echo EJLP12 and Echo EJCD12 (CD) - “Bing Crosby - Big Band Days” contain highly edtied versions of the show but have no first hand knowledge.

d, e, f, g, h performed as medley.

Whilst all titles are unissued in this format see below and refer to approriate programmes.

Lionel Pairpoint has conclusively shown that the programme is built up from earlier shows, and has identified the original sources of each component.
Some of the introductory dialogue has been retained intact from the original broadcast of the relevant title, but in others the intro has been recorded anew and some intros even taken from different recordings of the same title.
Even the medley is a compilation. The origin of the musical tracks (though noy all the dialogue) is as follows:-

Row, Row, Row. No. 75.
A Kiss To Build A Dream On. No. 79.
Painting The Clouds With Sunshine. No. 79.
The Morning Side Of The Mountain. No. 77.
Because Of You. No. 82.
The World Is Waiting For The Sunrise. No. 85.
Down Yonder. No. 87.
Never Before. No. 84.
Just One More Chance. No. 87.

Lionel asks why they would do this - even a much lower level of editing and intercutting would have deceived most listeners into thinking they were hearing something new. Perhaps they were just playing with their still relatively new tape machines. "Because it could be done".

The studio appear to have been working on a tight deadline (recording for same day broadcast) and might have found they were short of material, or found inadequacies in the live performance.
