Each player takes three cards. One Music Card side up; the others Magic Melody side up. Each card is a Bingo card with song titles in place of numbers. A long-playing record is played and those who can identify each song as it is played should cover that title with a marker if the song is on their card. Any player who can cover five songs in a row on one’s own Music Card wins the round. Certain songs on the record are designed Magic Melody songs. Those songs when identified correctly can take the place of the fifth title when a player has four in a row.
A second edition of the game was released in 1959 with a change in the rules. The Magic Melody cards were replaced with a spinner. This spinner gives each player three random free spaces.
The game is based on the popular television series of the same name. Host George De Witt is pictured on the box of each game.
The 1959 edition includes album, check sheet, 10 bingo music cards, spinner, 100 orange wooden covering pieces.
