Well, the research shown shows he did release that double-plugger in
'49, so it indeed is possible, and I was wrong. It's further
interesting that Crosby's re-release hit the market in the same year.
Evidently a real popular song in fall of 1949, as it was in 1940! Not
bad for a song that Berlin never figured would "hit."
