Single: He made the very first recording of the Jerome Kern-Oscar Hammerstein II classic "Ol' Man River" (from "Show Boat") with Paul Weston and His Orchestra, in January 1928, only three weeks after the show opened on Broadway. Crosby's version was intended for dancing, and was radically (and, some say, ridiculously) different--fast and upbeat, with the song's tragic lyric treated extremely lightly and off-handedly.

Single: He made the very first recording of Noel Regney's Christmas song "Do You Hear What I Hear?", on November 25, 1963, the day of President John F. Kennedy's funeral.

CD (w/Bob Hope): "Bing Crosby/Bob Hope: Two of a Kind" (USP)

CD: "My Favorite Love Songs" (USP)

CD: "My Favorite Irish Songs" (USP)

TV commercial: Appeared in a commercial for the 1961 Oldsmobile Starfire for his Bing Crosby Golf Tournament special on ABC Sunday January 22, 1961.

TV commercial for Ford Thunderbird (1956)

Sings the catchy jingle in a 50's British TV commercial for Shell gasoline
