Bing Crosby & Nanette Fabray spoof Nelson & Jeanette!

Thanks to Maria Escano for bringing this to our attention:

Hello Everyone:

Just got a kick out of Indian Love Call sung by Bing and Nanette in this TV episode of the Hollywood Palace, March 26, 1966. It starts at about 3:50
Bing Crosby and Nanette Fabray give us a musical history lesson and show that everything old is new again.

Apparently love duets throughout the years go something like this: cavemen uggs ? “Greensleeves” ? the minuet ? opera ? the Floradora Girls ? Jeanette MacDonald & Nelson Eddy ? “Baby It’s Cold Outside” ? discotheque uggs.

Today in J/N History

1939 Nelson gives a concert in San Antonio. During the early part of this yearly tour his new wife, Ann, traveled with him. But as they headed East reviewers noted his voice sounded strained and he didn't seem to be in top form. Finally he sent Ann back to Los Angeles and finished the tour alone. (Note: during his tour the previous year, Jeanette traveled with him for part of it.)
