I Sit Corrected

I am getting my Hollywood Golden Era musicals a tad mixed up.

In an earlier posting I wrote that "Easter Parade" was a Bing Crosby movie. On the contrary, the 1948 film "Easter Parade" starred Fred Astaire and Judy Garland but most assuredly not Der Bing, and it is Ms. Garland who sings the title song, along with Mr. Astaire, and you can find that on this blogs accompanying playlist.

My confusion came from the fact that the song "Easter Parade" did indeed appear in a Bing Crosby movie, "Holiday Inn" from 1942, which also starred the aforementioned Fred Astaire. "Holiday Inn" also introduced audiences to the now standard Christmas classic, "White Christmas."

Glad I could get things straightened out. Now, if only I did research before I wrote the blog postings...
