Originally aired on December 20, 1957, "Happy Holidays With Bing & Frank" is a timeless Christmas favorite, featuring the magical combination of Frank Sinatra and Bing Crosby in an early color television special. The two legends swap Christmas carols, songs, and stories, pay a musical visit to Victorian England, and duet on Christmas classics.
The show finishes in inimitable fashion with “The Christmas Song” and “White Christmas” for pure festive perfection. Directed by Sinatra, with music conducted by Nelson Riddle, the program also features the Ralph Brewster Singers.
Songs include: “Mistletoe And Holly,” “Jingle Bells,” “Deck The Halls,” “God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen,” “Hark The Herald Angels Sing,” “O Come All Ye Faithful,” “The First Noel,” “It Came Upon A Midnight Clear,” “Away In A Manger,” “O Little Town of Bethlehem,” “Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer,” “Santa Claus Is Coming To Town,” “The Christmas Song” and “White Christmas.”
