By mid-1935, the time reached on the first volume of Bing Crosby's "Going Hollywood" (JASCD 108/9), Bing had become one of the top stars of screen, radio and records. Crowds were flocking into cinemas across the nation to see "Two For Tonight" and "The Big Broadcast Of 1936". Three records of songs from the former picture were in the best selling lists whilst his record of "I Wished On The Moon" (from the latter film) was at the number two position, beaten only by Little Jack Little's "I'm In The Mood For Love". His Woodbury Soap sponsored radio show which came to an end in June had enjoyed very high ratings and it seemed the public just couldn't get enough of Mr. Crosby. They needn't have worried - there was much more to come from a star who was riding the crest of a wave.
