30 minute music/variety show
Bing Crosby and Miracle Whip, a match that only old time radio can concoct.
Kraft Music Hall was one of NBCs' most popular music variety shows. It aired in 1933 and lasted until 1949. The show started off as an hour long, but shortly went to a half hour format. The first orchestra leader was Paul Whiteman. The cast of regular performers featured Jack Fulon, roy Bargy, Ramona, and the music critic Deems Taylor. Al Jolson performed in the first year, he then took a brief hiatus from the show until 1947. Bing Crosby took over for Whiteman and was the host from 1936-1946. From 1946-49 the show went through a series of hosts, including Edward Everett Horton, Eddie Foy, Frank Morgan, Nelson Eddy, and Dorothy Kirsten. The regular cast was strong, but the show really excelled at getting guest stars like Spike Jones, Lucille Ball, the Andrews Sisters, Nat “King” Cole, Peggy Lee, and many many more.
The show went off the air in 1949, but went on television in 1958. It lasted on tv until 1971. The show was originally sponsored by Kraft to promote its new product, Miracle Whip.
