“Bob Crosby Golden Anniversary Tribute.” Crosby Music Agency. $29.95 plus $3 shipping. Intercutting of old clips enables the viewer to see such Crosby band veterans as Bob Haggart, Yank Lawson and Eddie Miller in color, with white hair, in 1985, and in black and white, with black hair, in 1937. The music has changed far less than the musicians; such staples as “Panama” and “That’s a Plenty” have the same cheerful beat. Crosby does a couple of vocals; Louis Armstrong and Judy Garland sing in brief clips. Alumnae Kay Starr and Gloria de Haven reminisce. Best moment: “What’s New” featuring its composer, Haggart, on bass, and Billy Butterfield’s lyrical trumpet. Information: Crosby Music Agency, 7730 Herschel Ave., La Jolla, Calif. 92037.
