Reception

The British publication Gramophone commented: "Bing Crosby has lost none of his mellow warmth of voice in Hey Jude, Hey Bing! (London SHU8391) as he gives us his versions of the Beatle ballad, “Little Green Apples,” “Both Sides Now,” and “Those Were The Days,” thereby adding to the potency of the songs themselves."[3]
